Walthers Cornerstone Building Templates

     Good afternoon  :ashat: 's. I'm looking at kit-bashing a rather large prototype structure out of some Cornerstone kits; but before I do I'd like to mock up some paper-printed 3D models. I've checked with Walthers and obtained the PDF instructions for the appropriate kits I want to use, but they only give you measurements of the footprint, and some random 3/4 views of the wall sections. What I really need are photocopies of the wall sections so I can "build" a paper version of the structure. Anyone have a source for this kind of thing? I'm searching for the Hardwood Furniture Company, American Hardware Supply, & George Roberts Printing Company kits in particular.

That's great Larry. If you sent them to me, what could I open them with?

I drew them on Cadrail 8, thus Cadrail 8 or newer should open them.  Supposedly other brands of model railroading cad programs can open these, but I know nothing about how.

Drew and Ian; I can't get the rail wire email function to take an attachment.  Send me a PM with your email address and I will email the buildings

For my Schlitz brewery I simply placed the flat wall on my scanner and copied them to my computer. Then I could print as many as I liked. I used the American hardware Walthers building as a start.
