Description
Roughly based on this prototype near Jessup, Nevada, the model represents a typical miner’s cabin in many mining towns of the era – some still standing; most in ruins.
The building was of board & batten construction. The original roof was wooden shake; later, it had been covered with tin sheets.
The kit consists of laser cut basswood and 3D printed windows and doors. Uncut acetate is included for glazing; roofing material is not included. Three choices of siding are available at the same price: horizontal 7″ laser-etched boards, 8″ board & batten, or 11″ board & batten.
Other laser-etched spacing may be available. Select “Other” on options and add note indicating preference on the Checkout page. Include email address for communication about your request.
