I have had a stupid busy week so not much progress to share. But I did manage to get the siding done on the main walls

One issue I had was warping. Instructions say that these walls in the kit will not warp due to the layered construction. Well they did warp so I ended up adding internal bracing to solve the problem. It would have been easier to add them first. I should have seen it coming. Oh well problem is fixed so I suppose it isn't really a problem after all.

Up next is the dormers.
