Model Railroad Scratchbuilding

Summary: Model Railroad Scratchbuilding
Review: The two books written by Wesolowski are the BEST on model railroad scratchbuilding. (one on structures and the other on rolling stock) I have no idea why these books are out of print, except possibly that most modelers want the quick out-of-the-box, ready-to-run modeling experience. For those of us who enjoy the art and craftsmanship of making something from scratch and the pride that comes from saying, "I build that model from scratch", there is no greater inspiration than Wesolowski. My copy of each book is falling apart I have reviewed them so many times. When I get discouraged with my modeling, one review of his books is enough to get me excited and back to work. I hope the publisher will someday reprint the books so others can share the joy. For now, a check on eBay may turn up a copy. Note: There were two different publishers for both books with different titles for each, so there may be some confusion.
