Jim's Shop, Christmas 2003 1:12 Scale Page revised 6/27/2017 Click on the photos for closer views.
When Jim would take Grace to dollhouse shows, he would find tools that he liked. One of the first was a lathe by Ron Bufton. For two years, Jim & Grace collected tools from different shows. Grace promised that one day she would create a roombox workshop for Jim. For Christmas this year, Grace built the roombox shop, as close as possible to what his real life shop looks like. The miniature shop isn't as cluttered as the real shop... but give Grace & Jim a few more years to find more tools.
Unfinished shell. The real shop has a dirt and gravel floor.	Right end with sliding panel door.	Left end with garage door. There is a handle on the door, now.	Unfinished shell. The siding is board and batten. Grace added the upper floor to a room box kit.
