Board, board, board*

As I started to work on cutting the weatherboarding for my HBS Creatin' Contest kit to size, I made a happy discovery:
Hand holding up a piece of dolls' house kit wall, with the edge to the camera showing how there is space to add siding and have room against the door frame.
The kit is designed so the weatherboarding can go under the door frame: so I don't need to worry about cutting the edges completely perfectly: as they won't be seen. W00t!
Wall of a dolls' house kit, with weatherboarding cut to size and a sliding door dry fitted.
Just as well, really. my cutting's pretty crap.
Close up of the edge of a piece of wood, showing rough sawing.
And, suddenly, it's starting to look like a building.
Wall of a dolls' house kit, with weatherboarding clamped to it, and a sliding door dry fitted. The wall is standing on a piece of board that looks like concrete, and a dolls' house miniature Adirondack chair is in front of it.
I celebrated by cutting the central wall, which will divide the cottage into two rooms.
