Not only an Awesome Job on this Massive Structure but also on all the surrounding scenery.

    Thank you for posting these pictures. At this moment, I cannot get enough pictures of an award winning sawmill. Carl- could I assume you followed the Sierra West instructions when you finished the wood?

    I did follow the instructions all of the way through, The only change was that I put the woodcutters shack in to the diorama.

    Thank you for looking.

    Fantastic Carl! Firstly I admire anyone who has worked up Twin Mills, secondly to work it up as brilliantly as you have here supports your reputation as one of the top modelers around...terrific...Ken

    Figures you'd be sitting on your duff while everyone else was working.

    A outstanding diorama and even better if you have seen it in person.

    I think this might have been the first build of this I saw in person. I know it was the first to win awards. What a stunner Carl. Many thanks to Alan for getting Carl's work posted for us all to enjoy! Need full size pics for the gallery AH...

    Awesome! I remember reading the build thread of this on RR Line, but this is the first time I'm seeing these pictures. That additional guard that added into the log pond (to block the logs from the one area of the pond) is a cool feature.
    Did you end up putting this in your layout?
  • CarlLaskeyCarlLaskey
    Thank's Bill
    No it is just sitting on the layout hopefully this winter I will get it in place.

    I've seen this beauty a couple of times- the first was in Hartford CT where I believe it was First Place -Diorama at the NMRA National. Carl's model was and is very inspirational.
