Hey Bob:

When you build your office the 1/8" spacing on the long walls should be 3/32nd".

thanks Karl! The instructions called for 6 strips on the conveyor housing but 5 fit on mine,,,, looked at your photos and saw only 5 strips on the side of your conveyor,,,,, guess it was a misprint!

Hey Bob C:

Look at figure 15. The 2 long walls have an 1/8th in space at both ends of them. This space need to be reduced to 3/32nds of an inch.

Hey Guys:

Been working on the office. Walls are assembled and the front platform is added. Decided to go with a tar and gravel roof.
