Timbered House under construction
Re: Timbered House under construction
At first I had no plan for the material for the colorful loops; I found these loops then in the craft store of my choice. There they had 3 mm narrow ribbon - 3 mm x 16 are approximately 50 mm in original that could match.
For blue and yellow I decided me spontaneously, ever bought a meter and so then I started to wrap them around the crown.
First once the lower ring and then with each color from top to bottom. A first sample hanging, still attached with terminals.
It’s so okay, but the attachment could something longer correspond to the carpentry trade. So was built a little attachment construction in three parts from the model carpenter.
And up on the roof with the topping out crown...
Looks fine…

the topping out is a craftsmanship tradition in Germany (and in other countries too); the craftsmen have a little party if the structural work is finished or if the ridge beam was placed atop. And for this ceremony they have a crown - the topping out crown. I'm surprised that in your country this is not usual.
And important - nobody was injured at this ceremony...
...but at the other morning had many craftsman mild headaches.

A few years ago I helped a friend to build his new house, I was his bricklayer. And so I came to enjoy a topping out ceremony, with suckling pig and beer and booze to drink. And after this party I was still at a Motörhead concert - this was real hard stuff

Re: Timbered House under construction
It's going to the end - not with me but with the house; the dioramas small parts were aged somewhat and brought into position. Here are the scaffold jacks in the ground floor...
