That makes an interesting building that would add a lot of character to a town. Could/would you please show us the part not installed, the cuts.

If this building had the glass on every wall I could see using the design as a church. Too bad there is not a wide double door but the barn door would still work and looks good in your building.

Oh if Geobra never gave up on stecks, there are so many possibilities if they made more new parts. A nice 3 wall wide roof and.............
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Very nice!  8-)
I assume the 2 cut triangular roof parts hold themselves in place, and are not glued together?

Btw, if you would add another section on the back, then seen from above the house would resemble a ... :shhhh: 0)

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!

Thx !

No it´s not glued it holds perfect in place.

There are 3 parts that must be cut. the 2 diagonal roof parts.  where the long jointers meet you have to cut one of them also where the 2 lower weatherboards meet you have to cut i little corner in one of them. i will make a pic  :wave:
