Building an ACW tollhouse
« on: 29 April 2016, 08:20:06 AM »
Hi!

In preparation for Sharp Practice 2, I decided to do some scratch building and made an ACW tollhouse. It's modeled after the tollhouses built for the National Road in 1835. The octagonal layout was a bit of a challenge, but it turned out ok, if I say so myself.





A detailed description of the production process and more images can be found on my blog: https://wargamingraft.wordpress.com/2016/04/29/building-an-acw-tollhouse/

Cheers,
Shandy
