Benchwork Extension

Plans for the revisions to the one-room version of my layout included extending the depth of the benchwork in one corner.


I had initially narrowed the benchwork in the southeast corner because I did not intend for any major structures to be in that area.

The visual impact of that corner scene with the bridge crossing the creek as a focal point might be enhanced if the benchwork was deeper.

PVC scraps left over from replacing the trim on a shed were used to extend the length of the joists in the corner. I used PVC cement to glue the extensions to the original wooden joists.

The cardboard fascia pattern was tacked to the extended joists to get an impression of the deeper corner.
