SierraWest Scale Models Online Instructions
I so appreciate the support of my awesome customers. I have one small favor to ask of you. The techniques I present on my website, without compensation, are happily provided for any modeler to use in their personal modeling efforts. It is important to support our modeling community in the same way that I have been supported since 1995. If you are a manufacturer, online content creator, etc... that is anyone who is not using these techniques for personal modeling, please do not use my techniques in your commercial endeavors. Take the time, as I have, to develop your own methods. I hear reports of “professionals” using my techniques without permission.

Please click on the links below to open the different instructions, they are provided in Adobe Acrobat (pdf) format. You can view or print them at that point. If you would like to print them be sure to check the "fit to page" option in your printers dialog box for the best results.
