Building Craftsman Structure Kits DVD By Scott Mason

[TallDude]

I've been swamped with work lately and haven't had a chance to start the construction of my Bar Mills Majestic Hardware and Feed Kit, but since I do stare at a computer all day, I managed to find a great DVD on Ebay.

"Building Craftsamn Structure Kits" by Scott Mason offers a lot of great tips and weathering techinques for building a craftsman kit. Its just what I needed to watch before I try to tackle this Bar Mills kit. He goes through everything from construction and glues to use to weather and other effects. I plan to use several of the tips I learned in the video on my kit.

You can find his video with a free 3 minute preview at

I don't think I'll ever be at his skill level, but to me the video was worth the 29.95.

cool glad to here it was worth the money you had to pay for it. Now make all of us a copy and send it to us. LOL just joking dont make a copy of it that could cost us in the long run

[TallDude]

As expensive as some of the craftsman kits are (such as Fine Scale Miniatures which are a limited run), if you can afford the kit, you can afford the DVD. lol

What? You got a new job and didn't tell us, TD??? Or, you free-lancing to stay busy???

[TallDude]

Nope, same crappy jobs as I've had for the last 2 years. but the contract I'm working on ends on June 1st, so after that my job situation is unclear.

Oooohhhh...I was sorta under the impression you were out of a current job, that's why you were thinking about moving. No chance the contract will be renewed, h'uh?
