I went to his webs site and decided I had to have one of his swimming pools. I was wondering if anyone has bought from him?

If this is the guy from Witchita Kansas, then his buildings are of a very high quality. He was at the HAGRS show, had a few of his buildngs and bridges and other things with him. A very friendly and nice guy, him and his wife make the buildings together. Definately , they are built to last outside for a long time.

I think the old Steamers are the best and coolest looking of ALL the trains!!!!

Nice looking buildings and great variety. There are some buildings shown that have never been offered by other manufacturers

Their site says they use basswood trim. Does basswood hold up long term outdoors?

They look to be positioned between "K'S" and "Hillcraft" but have a really nice selection. Hillcraft also had a nice selection, but I don't see them around anymore.

I went ahead and ordered stuff. He makes it first and sends you a photo to make sure you like it. Then you pay for it. That seems like a really good deal.
