Hi all,


I wanted to thank everybody for their ideas ... by the end of last weekend, I
had a very respectable looking, detailed warehouse.  Some of the items I

some drums, an old beam, and a dumpster

(8) Patented, Genuine, Simulated Ventilator Fan Slime.  Using a snot section
reminiscent of the book titles in the Ultimate LEGO book, I put together some
gross drippings off the bottom of the fans.  The dark grey, brown, and black
drips seep partway down the wall.

It's awaiting its first public appearance this weekend at NELUG's Train Show
display.  Hopefully there will be some pictures forthcoming!

Thanks again, everybody!
