Could we get more pictures and one with someone standing by it to get a better perspective on how big it is?

Great work!

I'm curious though - why did you pick 1/10 scale? If you're going to use it to display model / diecast cars, I haven't heard of any that are 1/10 scale (except maybe some R/C cars?).

Living in quiet rural Missouri.
I've always heard since most people are right handed, spiral staircases twist to the right to help the resident defend them selves easier from attack by an intruder coming up the stairs with a sword.

sounds about right.

Hey welcome over here Buddy. Saw this one over on Scale and RCC.
Maybe we should start another section for these, I have several as well.

I love your attention to detail - the hose reels, the color on the oxy tanks, etc. More pictures, please!

I was building a scale model of my existing garage, but it ended up looking like just a box full of junk. While truly a fair representation of my fullsize garage, it was still not something I wished to display.

Yours looks great.

Looks great, the little details are what make it work so well (even if your cylinders don't have hydrostatic test stamps :evil:). Did you paint the regulator gauges or was that a decal?
