My Pikestuff Building Thread

Hi guys I really enjoy building the Pikestuff series of buildings and thought Id document not the construction process but the end result. One[size=78%] awesome thing about Pikestuff buildings is that you can configure them just about any length or height you need within reason. The first building is the Hughes Tool & Plastic building. I wanted some larger footprint buildings so thats why I started with the Hughes kit and I also wanted buildings that would accept deliveries via a siding. I plan to weather the buildings eventually but for now they will retain their new look until I get tired of it. Oh if you have any suggestions comments or thoughts on the buildings please feel free to share them.[/size]

Do those come with rain gutters like their HO counterparts? Looking for a source for other projects.

Best wishes, Dave
If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Hi Dave


These kits do not come with rain gutters, however I would check their site as I do know they sell details separately.

Heres another building I finished tonight its the "Basic Warehouse", I added as many doors and windows as I could to it lol. I shortened
the building making it one story. Most of my Pikestuff buildings are two story buildings, in the last picture I took a pic of some of the older Pikestuff buildings that have been weathered next to the newer buildings that Ive built.

Hey Ian thanks for noticing the roof vents , the reason they are like that is because I didnt follow instructions lol. Ive corrected the roof vents so the look like the other pikestuff buildings thanks again.
