Step1: Assembling the pieces for the base
Preview

The pieces above have been layed out to help you to make sure that all of the pieces for the base are there.

 

Adhesives

  1. With a project like this, if you are using wood, i have found that PVA is probably the best
  2. I use masking tape (painters tape) to support the pieces while they are drying.

A special note for the laying out of the pieces.

  1. I make sure that the cut finger holes line up with one another. This helps to identify the piece and to make sure that you dont accidently try to attach the wrong piece.
  2. The pieces are arranged so that the inner pieces attached to the base first and then work their way out.

Step2: Assembling the internal pieces

  1. Select the internal wall pieces, as indicated in the first image.
  2. Attach the internal wall piece to the base.

Special note

  1. You will need to support the wall with painters tape during assembly
  2. The joint of the supported wall needs to be on the outside, as shown in the 3rd image.

Step6: Verification step

Ensure that the base plate's finger joints are all visible and that the internal walls that you have assembled run paralled to them.

Step7: Adding the external walls
Preview
Preview
  1. Select the external wall pieces, as indicated in the first image.
  2. Attach the external wall pieces to the base.

Special note

  1. For extra structural strength I would also recommend adding adhesive to the inside face of the external wall. This will provide another surface of adhesion to the overall wall structure.
  2. The outside walls would probably benefit from support with painters tape while drying.

Special note
