Papa got a reaction from Old Collingwood in Santos Dumont 14 bis (1906) by Greg Davis - FINISHED - Model Airways - 1:16 scale
I used CA. I generally file the spots to be glued a bit to make sure they are even. It is also important to just use a tiny drop of CA

The layout has grown from micro to small shelf. The micro was too limited.

I had trouble figuring that out also. I just tied lines where I thought they made sense.

Papa got a reaction from iosto in Ayer’s Chairs by Papa - Campbell Scale Models - HO scale - card, wood, plastic, foil
Ayer’s Chairs is going to be a furniture or cabinet maker whose name I haven’t decided. Like the flop house, it is intended for my micro layout. I plan to add more details once it is in place.

Papa reacted to Cowgirl in Doctor's Buggy by Cowgirl - Model Expo Trailways - 1:12 scale
This is my second Doctor's buggy. The first was not a very good kit and I ended up kit bashing it. This one from Model Expo was a much better kit with easier to follow instructions. It helped that I am pretty familiar with the actual antique Doctor's buggies so the kit and build made sense.
Finished:
Dr's Buggy Model Trailways 1:12 scale
Navajo Wagon - Kit bash from Model Trailways Chuckwagon 1:12 scale
In Progress:
Rucker's Ambulance Model Expo Historic Artillery
Future Project:
Model Shipways Shipwright Series?
Model Trailways Stagecoach 1:12 scale

Papa got a reaction from catopower in Old model shipways USS essex (solid hull)
I purchased a yellow box Essex around 1968 or so. It was to be my 3rd Model Shipways model after Young America and News Boy. The instructions are very simple. Essentially: "take the wood in the box and turn it into a model of the Essex." Using the Neophyte Ship Modeler's Jackstay book from MS and later a much more thorough instruction book from MS (forgot the author) and lots of patience and purchasing a bazillion more blocks of various sizes, I finally completed her around 2004. I also built a few plank on frame kits during that time and had to redo work on the Essex as I gained more experience. In the end I have an impressive model of which I am very proud. some pictures are here
