Issue 91

Contents
Bathhouse Roof Frame, Pier Steps.

Picture 1 shows the contents for this issue.

Assembling the Bathhouse Roof Frame

Separate all the parts using a sharp craft knife, then smooth all the edges. Next paint all the individual pieces. I used the brown paint that was supplied in the first issue, picture 2. Take the large and middle horizontal details along with the short vertical strips and using wood glue attach the parts exactly as shown in picture 3. Allow this to dry before attaching the long vertical strips as shown in picture 4. Finally, attach the small part to the top using wood glue, picture 5.

Assembling the pier steps.
Take the five pieces that make up the pier steps, picture 6, and attach all the parts together using wood glue, picture 7.

Attach the steps to the pier from issue 86 using wood glue. This was then painted again using the same colours as I painted the pier, picture 8.

Picture 9 shows the steps with the pier.

That completes the assembly for this issue.

Issue 92

Contents
Bathhouse Walls and Windows, Pier Steps.

Picture 1 shows the contents for this issue.

Assembling the Walls and Windows

Before we start, you will see that I have inserted the window dividers into the window frames. This was done to make it easier to paint all the windows including the inner dividers.

Take the three wall parts and using a pencil and ruler draw a line to represent individual planks, picture 2. Paint the individual planks with different shades of brown as shown in picture 3. I also applied a semi-gloss varnish once the paint had dried.

Apply some double-sided tape in the centre of the divider, picture 4, and attach the window as shown in picture 5.

Finally, glue all the wall parts together, making sure that they all align including all the chamfers inside and allow to the wood glue to dry.

Pictures 6 and 7 show the assembly complete.

That completes the assembly for this issue.

Issue 93

Contents
Outer Wall parts, Veranda Side

Picture 1 shows the contents for this issue.

Fitting the Windows into the wall on the Staircase side

Take the three windows assembled in issues 75 and 76, picture 2 and using PVA glue fit the windows into the wall as shown in picture 3. Allow these to dry fully before moving onto the next step.

Next, attach the window frames to the inside using wood glue, picture 4. You will also notice that I have cut some white card and attached these to the wallpaper where they join to each floor. This was my own personal preference as these joins will be seen once the wall are attached.

Assembling the Outer Wall (Veranda Side)
Prepare the wall frame from this issue, bending the panels with a ruler as you did in previous issues, picture 5. Using wood glue, line up the panelling to the frame as shown in picture 6. Do the same with the upper panel and glue onto the frame, picture 7. Allow this to dry fully.

If there are any of the panels that need to be glued to the frame when inspecting the assembly from the inside, then use quick drying glue to fix any loose panels to the frame. Attach the two-fixing plate to the inside as shown in picture 8.

Picture 9 shows the completed assembly for this issue.
