I noticed the two gabled ends of the barn were slightly warped outwards. Once the roof is on they probably won't be noticed.

However, I can't let the warped walls stay as is.



Here is what I did to fix them.

I glued an HO scale 8X8 to the inside of the frame. Weights were placed on the 8X8 until dry, which was overnight.

The outside window frames were stained while in the carrier sheet.



When dry, I lightly sanded them to match the barn exterior walls.



Done for today, don't want to push it.

Tom,

Glad to have you back! Nice fix on the warped wall and good coloring on the window frames.
It appears you have this under control.
