11. The roof card has been cut and temporarily put
in place for test fit. The corner trim pieces have been
added. Now it’s beginning to look like an engine house.

Adding shingles to the roof
Next I added the shingles to the roof, a long and tedious job.
In [12] you see only half the panel has been shingled. My eyes
needed a break after laying so many courses of shingles.
I glued the roof halves together and laid the roof on a flat sur-
face. I covered the whole top side with strips of double-sided
tape. The tape is clear, so when I removed the backing on the
top side, I could see the shingle lines, as well as the smoke stack
cut-outs. I used a sharp hobby knife to cut out where needed.
