the Rustic Stone & Frame Factory Kit #3105
Footprint for the #3105 kit Main Bldg: 6-1/2" (incl Lean-to sheds) x 2-3/4" + Out Building 2-1/2" x 2-3/4" (+ stone remnants & boiler area)
This 1978 Thomas A. Yorke Ent kit (Now
Scale Model Masterpieces)
has received whole new (and some original) updates. We have the Building
Drawings 100% complete and the Instruction Booklet significantly updated.
This Brand New release includes the Main Building kit with now
two (2) Lean-To's as shown in the drawings; the Out Building including the
collapsed Boiler Room fragments and a vertical boiler (images coming very soon);
brick footers for one Lean-To and the Loading Dock, and a bunch of boxes,
barrels, sacks for details.
The Main Building front & rear walls, warehouse doors and roof
material is Precision Cut just as we do for all of our other kits. We've
simplified the assembly process including the addition of rafter tails for both
structures.
For the record, most everything you see in the images as well as quite a bit of
other stuff that you don't see as this update progresses. Folks see images and
drawings from other kit manufacturers with details and items that they are expecting
with the kit, and the long story short it doesn't and the customer is
disappointed. For us it's WYSIWYG (What you see is
what you get) unless duly noted in
the drawings & images.
So to answer the question: "what other stuff" is included with
this kit? Well, everything seen in the picture as well as: (3) Boxes—SMM5045;
(3) Boxes— SMM5050; (2) Covered Machinery— SMM5179; (2) Stacks o’ Sacks— SMM510;
& (2) Stacks o’ Sacks— SMM5085 which are all cast in our Labstone gypsum just
like our Scale Model Masterpieces kits.
PLUS! Do you want More? Simply check the box next to Other

right? Options, options, options! What else can we do???
NOTE: All
of the casting for this model are made from "original" Thomas A. Yorke
molds/masters and cast in Labstone/Dental (Buff) for much more superior
detail than casting made of Hydrocal© can produce.
The windows, doors, and some other details are Grandt Line
product molded plastic. Doctor Ben's Roofing material is provided as well as the
instruction for its application. Each
kit has updated instructions are to make construction more applicable
to changes of materials and modeling techniques.
This brand new update includes detailed construction drawings
(SEE adjacent THUMBNAILS), scale lumber, Precision Cut template & content
sheets, barrels and boxes, outhouse/privy (pictured), weathering
instructions, color photos, instruction booklet, and much more.
The original 1978 Thomas A. Yorke Ent kit was originally produced
in the produced by Thomas A Yorke and although there have been some variations,
this craftsman kit includes the best aspects of previous versions..
And yes, Doctor Ben's Weathering would look good on this model which is why Doctor Ben's is included in the kit instructions!
