I'm impressed there's no light leaking through the corners of the building.

I used 1/4 inch strip wood to reinforce the joints in the corners. It really helps with sealing things along with making strong joints.

Just ran thru the 28 pages of amazing pixes and tutorials you're putting out.  Great build and very inspiring.  I wish I had the time & patience to do some of that.  Maybe in six years (retirement).  Thanks for opening up your shop to us!

Thank you for stopping by the thread and the encouraging words. These big projects are a lot easier after retirement. It's great to see you back on the forum.

I made some more progress today with the dormers on the Threadwells main structure. Lots of trim work to work on tomorrow. Then the roof.

Amazing looking build, liting looks great, I can see with the precision measuring on the roof that it too is going to look great.

I noticed this morning that the roof card had bowed just a little bit with the weights on it overnight so I started out by doing some additional reinforcement. I add a couple 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch braces to the roof to support the dormers. There not going anywhere now.

Thanks for following along and for the kind words. See my post above - I like things to stay where I put them after all that measuring.
