I like it very much Mark. I’d wondered how you were going to incorporate removable roofs into your tented builds.  8) :-*

Not a bad shack at all! Good construction and use of materials to get the right vibe. I like the half tent half wood combination for the newly setup part of the town.

I may borrow that idea down the track.

Cheers

Its a nice concept wood and canvas is going to give your town that just built feel.
Did you use cloth material for the canvas, I have thought about doing that but can't figure out how I would stop the threads coming out or manage to glue the material tautly given its inherent floppyness.

Looking good.
Like the tent roof.

It seems the Old West is certainly a popular destination at the moment.

It’s all Harvey’s fault with his cotton-pickin’ Fistful of lead game at BLAM.

I'm definitely going to be using it - has the vibe I want for my town.

Vagabond - I think they whole thing was dipped in a water/PVA mix and then put in place to dry.
