Bar Mills - Lighthouse

This is kind of what is in the box. Thought I would show you what I am working with in this project. I will cover some of the construction in tomorrow WRD post...so check my other blog...George Dutka 


A simple kit with not that many pieces to deal with.

The instructions are pretty basic too. The work will be painting and weathering the model to make it look real.

My Table - Ontario Narrow Gauge Show

I am demonstrating how I make tar paper roofing. At the other end of the table I had brought some displays along in On30" and HOn30".
Here are a couple of shots taken by Dave Woodhead at this years Ontario Narrow Gauge Show of my table. I had a few displays plus I was doing a mini clinic...how to tarpaper a roof. I had a few examples and a chair setout for anyone who wished to try the simple process...George Dutka 

This is a cast plaster O scale structure I purchased built that need some loving. I have repainted and stained the structure adding details attached to all the sides.

On2 Diorama -Ontario Narrow Gauge Show

A great narrow gauge scene.
Back at the April 2023 Ontario Narrow Gauge Show Sandy Drysdale displayed his On2 Maine two-footer diorama. His display was a pleasure to photograph. I was just using my phone. The backdrop looks pretty realistic in the photos too. Enjoy...George Dutka

Some of the details in O scale that was available for the narrow gauger's attending the Ontario Narrow Gauge show this spring. I walked away with a couple of roofs for some projects on hand...George Dutka
