October 8 progress report.
After two full months of work Crutcher Scott Field (in miniature) is beginning to take shape. The first picture below shows the basic layout - field, buildings in various states of progress, and a bit of the "steel work" for the bleachers coming up.
A closer view of the steel work (balsa) and the bullpen area. While the basic form of the bleachers is taking shape I have not yet begun to add the actual seats or bleachers on top of the seating areas.
Most of the field/grass is near finished. Some final touches in transition areas are still needed and - as you can see - a variety of lines are still lacking. I'm working on the templates to enable me to spray these on in the next few days. At the bottom of the photo below the hitting facility is visible (still lacking the installation of overhead doors); top of the foul pole is also just visible at the very bottom of the picture.
Another view of the stands with a topless concession stand in view and the shell of the press box standing at the top of the picture. Fence posts are also visible on the left hand side of the photo below.
One last picture for today, looking from the bullpen up the sidewalk to the dugout. Although not visible here, I have installed lights above the sidewalk (as at the stadium itself).
Much left to do, but that is the pleasure of the hobby.
