Thanks RP for the suggestions.   

BTW - this is Goat's build thread, I have mine about 1/3 of the way through, from where I left off about 2 years ago.

Keep the pics coming Goat!

Hi goat:

You do your white walls the same way I do. A&I & then the white. I like the way some of the stain automatically shows through the white paint. I've never built this kit but have always liked it. Anyway nice job sofar.

Goat and anyone else that has built this kit -

How did you handle the peel and stick foundation windows?  I am having a heck of a time coming up with a way to keep them in place.

Thanks
Jon

Hi Jon,


Sorry for the late reponse. I didn't get too fussy with those windows. It's not the tightest fit, I just put some glue around the outer edges of the window frame, inserted it in the foundation opening and called it good. There isn't a reason for the peel and stick backing for those particular windows. You can always hide any imperfections with a shrub, casting or other detail when you plant the structure. 


Thanks for chiming in!

Ok, I managed to work on this a little more before heading out for the Expo. I started adding the rolled roofing and installing the roofs. The kit instructions weren't kidding, it's a tight fit. This is my first foray with a tab and slot kit. I also started messing around with the corrugated siding, another first for me. This is turning out to be a challenging kit for a semi newbie but it's been a fun challenge.

Bobby, looks to me like you are rising to the challenge, semi-newbie or not.  Very nice work.

I work at a snails pace on these kits. Keeping a close eye on our new puppy has made me adopt the Engler approach and have a mobile work bench on the dining room table.


But, I've made a little progress on the roofing:
