RMweb Premium Grampus Posted April 10, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 10, 2014 Hi all,  Sorry in advance for a potentially dull question but I would like to ask for some advice from the experts on here, please. I am currently messing about with a couple of Jaeger lumber loads for a small US project. I am about to start covering the wooden blocks using the paper wrappers provided, but I wondered if anyone on here could advise whether there is a 'right' or a 'wrong' way to do it?  Specifically, what do you do about the end folds? Should I fold the long end flap down first and secure it before folding in the sides; or do the sides fold in first and then the long flap fold down over them to provide a bit more weather protection? ( - Are they always the same? Does it matter?)  Unfortunately the instructions provided with the kit are a bit thin on detail!  I did have a look at a couple of previous threads on here re lumber loads, but whilst they mentioned the Jaeger loads in passing I did not find any images I could crib from. As ever, grateful for any insights you may be able to offer, please.  Thank you in advance and best wishes,  Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor quinn Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Hi Paul  When I did mine I folded the sides in first then the top down, I recall seeing some that way in timber yards in UK and it seems logical - the top flat keeps the HO scale rain out!  Nick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
