Follow along with this step-by-step build as take the structure from rough mock-up to finished model. This is BCRy Part X.

Great job on the window design. The laser cut hinge point looks like it works perfectly. I have watched your videos over & over... I get a little more out of them each time. Great job, Dave. Keep up the good work.

An excellent job🚂🚂👍👍👍👍👍👍⚒⚒⚒⚒

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

Many thanks!

[@Jacob-zo5fv]

If I remember correctly part of the Vindicator Mine complex in the Cripple Creek district had a section where trains would run through the main structure. And the waste rock was just piled against the structure. While not exactly what you modeled, it feels similar

Some job, thats fantastic!

[@scaleffect]

Roof material looks excellent. Top work as always

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

Thank you!

[@tomkobialka7504]

Excellent !!!!!!

[@tcsyme]

Great stamp mill Dave!l I love the stairs to nowhere. I look forward to seeing the addition below, but it will also be sad to see that little easter egg go away. As always, thanks for the inspiration!

[@brianbringmann1406]

Love the layout. Trying to catch up on all your videos. Building a layout in the basement . Going to try some of your techniques on mine. If I would win the lottery I would have you build mine.

[@charliemessenger6537]

Awesome facility but I think you need some roof ventilation on your pass through section. Going to get a little smokey in there!

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

Cool idea

[@NYCJDClark]

Great show Dave. I learned some things I want to try. Sorry I missed the premiere

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

No worries. Thanks for watching

[@duanewhite3275]

[@loispadgett6306]

[@samfuller6273]

Super cool

[@ToyManTelevision]

This is soooo GREAT. Love the structure. Wow!

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

Thank you so much!

[@lesliezammit3456]

Brilliantly executed as usual. I also don't know how you come up with all of the ideas for the fine detail like the opening windows.

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

Thank you very much!

[@richardsweeney197]

The only thing I wish you had added was something like yellow "CAUTION" tape in case Sundance gets absent minded on those stairs. 🙂

[@ddyodaman5515]

Amazing work! Appreciate you showing your craft!

[@paulbottrill8391]

Fantastic looking building as usual Dave. Fits the scene perfectly 👏👍

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

Thanks 👍

[@randyj6245]

I always love your stuff! Keep it up Dave.

[@zacharyrodinson7829]

Hey Dave, are you going to make a custom train for Bandit Canyon Railway?

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

I have several On18 locomotive and car projects in the works. Stay tuned!

[@themusicandtrainguy7221]

Hi Dave, Is that a special type of brush that you use when you glue things together? I've always wanted to ask. Thanks

[@ThunderMesaStudio]

It's just a soft paintbrush. I buy cheep craft store brushes for applying glue.

[@peacock5859]

0:00 in the beginning, is that a narrow gauge Shay? If it is, would you care to make a narrow gauge climax Shay?

[@rickdee67]

Now that Gruesome Gulch is finished, time to concentrate on Bandit Canyon?
