Besides taking the last 10 days laying low from a positive C-19 test, I have been developing the Franklin Freight & Storage project. The base model prototype made its debut at TCA York a couple of weeks back. One of the new available details will be pivotable window panes. Here are first drafts of a 1-1/2" deep loading platform that will have a canopy above and the third option, the siding track against the building with the upper floors cantilevered over it. It is a nice little puzzle to work out the offsets and material thicknesses for straight-forward assembly. Methods learned on this model will greatly enhance CS-08 Downtown Building #1. The model is 17" long by 16" tall. The third option will extend out about 6" from the wall.
