sawhorse braces (F.3) that attach just below the beam on
both sides of the legs; glue these in place. Stain these with
either oak stain, or weather heavily with gray washes and
place around the area.
Glue the three anvil bases (A.19) together in a stack, and
when dry, sand the edges smooth. Glue the anvil casting to
the top of the stack and place near one of the work benches.
Assemble the chair by gluing the legs (F.10) into the slots
of the seat (F.11) keeping the angled leg at the back of the
seat. Glue the back (F.12) into the slot of the seat.
Glue two desk ends (E.1) together as shown in the drawing and glue a set to
each side of the desk front (F.5) and glue the desk back (F.6) to the other side
of the ends. When dry, sand all the edges smooth. Glue the top (F.7) centered
side to side with the overhang at the front, drawer-side of the desk. Paint or
stain the desk and chair as desired and glue into the sawfiler's area against the
wall.
Drums can be painted black with colored bands and stacked around the area.
Paint the small barrels, junk box, jugs, and crates Earth, and then add rusty bands to the barrels. The gallon cans, gears,
and wire spools can be painted Silver and placed on the workbenches or shelves. Paint the scrap drive wheel and the
wheel pile Grimy Black and add lots of rust. Place them in an out-of-the-way corner.
There is really no end to the level of details and clutter that can be added to the sawfiler's area. Some mills kept things
neat and clean; others did not. This kit provides a good start in either case.
