On the way into work every morning the train passes a stretch of windswept farmland on the coastal cliff edge. The farmer has kindly provided his cows with corrugated iron cow shelters and each day I make a mental note that they would look great on my Winter of '79 tabletop.Using one sheet of Wills OO/HO Corrugated Plasticard (£2.50 for 4 sheets) and seven matches I knocked up the following Coo' shed.
It's simple to score the plasticard and snap it on the table edge. The matches are there not only to add detail but strengthen the joins at the corners.
Simple but effective I think. The shed could be further detailed with additional sheets of corrugated iron laid across the roof, maybe a couple of wooden beams or rocks holding the roof down. I'm keeping this one simple but will finish it off by mounting on a scenic base.
Right. Off to build another!

Excellent look to it. Little tidbits like shacks and sheds can really make a table come alive.
