Holy cow! Thats nice! I like how everything opens up. Do you think it could be re-structured on a baseplate made such that it wouldn't "open up", you could instead take layers off the top?

Nice job!

I liked how you designed the saw itself. Also, is someone stealing the gold in the attic?

Great moc my man. I like how the timber frame is angled. Very nice touch.

Very nice MOC,

I'd have to say that this is one of the best variations on the Half-timbered shop that I have seen. The level of detail, the rounded wall, the pillars, all excellent. If it was up to me I'd vote for it. BTW make sure you make a seperate folder with only 3 pics so you don't disqualify your entry.

After a long absence, I have returned. I can't wait to start building again.

Yeah, I think I could. I do want to make another version without the motor so I can have more room to put interior detailing. Also, the roof is WAY heavy with the battery pack and motor. :shock:

Thanks! :lol: :lol: Nope, that's Jair, owner of the mill. I plan to develop his character a lot more in the LEAGUE OF FORESTMEN soon!
