My BOTW offering is this Bachmann Plasticville fire house, which actually serves as the "Ephrata Fire Department" on my layout. I glued the American Flag above the door for realism, and plan to continue to add to the scene by placing firemen near the station/trucks. The Engine and Ladder are American LaFrance fire trucks, made by Model Power, which fit the time period in which I'm modeling perfectly.
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven." - Matthew 5:16

I read somewhere....MRH, maybe, of someone 3D printing foundations for specific building kits. My memory sucks, but I think they were DPM . The firehouse could benefit from a few extra feet of height. Evan

 Great fire station. There is always a disproportional look to Plasticville, one of the reasons I like it- it's just a little off. One of the reasons I love Myrtle's so much is the patches of red on green grass, by the same token.
