Hey Pat
About the shingles... Are they seperable or do you apply the whole row in one piece, and then the next a half shingle further along to maintain an overlap?

I'm assuming you apply the whole row. I came around to that method after painstakingly making home made single shingles for a Miniart building until I had a Eureka moment.

Interesting use of laser cutting technology. I have to say I like these. Given the right finish and they would look good. I always a fan of seeing AM made things like these.

Hi Michael,

i really like your fences! For the shingles, i presume it will be a bit expensive for me to use those LOL

Great review. I have to laugh at the iron gates being made from a wood product. If there was ever a need for a photo-etch metal accessory, it has to be for an iron gate.

thanks,
