Foremost, sorry @davefoxx for this...

Worst troll ever.  Pretty sure I don't need a calculator to draw a straight line, circle or a point. @chicken45 or the egg first...


It's still math!

and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Exactly !  You can tackle my Glyndon station if you'd like when you're done with yours.

I love it when a plan comes together.  I'm going to have to have you post a review on my design page!

That's going to be extra hawt when those shingles get installed.

Speaking of, what did you decide for the shingles @davefoxx ?

If I can figure out how to scale, print, and install those decals, I might go that route.  I haven't found anything else, but styrene "metal roofing" (wrong era) that I can use otherwise.

Spray adhesive on a scaled paper print out? Or would that just look too rough?

Scale is easy, just figure out how many tile you want per inch or however you want to figure it out, and we can get it adjusted.

Shingles? I hear there's a vaccine for that!

Anyone want to help scale the size of the shingles?  Here's the prototype:
