1/8-scale furniture? by
Carol
I'm posting this to the sender as well as to the group because someone might
find it useful.
Many of the German minis are 1/10 scale which is somewhat closer to 1/8 and
might work.

Painting - Wiring - What Order? by
Carol
Paint before wiring but if you're going to put tape on the walls, you will
need to put a coat of paint over the tape unless you're wallpapering.
There are 2 sides to the "paint first, assemble after" or "assemble first,
paint after". I am on the "assemble first" side. I prime the walls...

Please Help...... I need clear bowls by
Carol - S P Miniatures
Try Glasscraft. They make empty trifle dishes and are not badly priced.

They're in England but don't charge a lot for shipping and accept credit
cards.

Surplus Coffee Stirrers available at cost by
Cathy Weeks
Hi,
I couldn't find coffee stirrers locally, so I bought them online. The
only drawback is that I had to buy an entire case. Here's where I
bought them:

My total cost was $10.04 plus $7.60 in shipping for a total of $17.64.

Wow...it worked! (Electrical) by
Cathy Weeks
I've been putting in the tape wire, and installing the eyelets. I
installed the junction splice on the underside of the house (in space
created by the "foundations") I'll route out a "mouse hole" for the
cord to escape.
But I got out the tester, and ALL splices worked. I guess I expected
it to...

There has got to be an easier way to do shingles by
Cathy Weeks
I dyed the shingles for the cottage today. The good news is that they
are turning out to be a lovely shade of reddish brown, reminicent of
cedar.
However, it was a horrible job! They only soaked in the dye for a
minute or so, but they stuck together, and I didn't think they'd turn
out well if...

1/8 inch brads with 1/8 inch plywood? by
Cathy Weeks
My current project has 3/8" MDF walls, and I got to thinking about my
next project. I'm thinking about a Greenleaf cottage next, and
wouldn't wiring prove a problem? If you use the brads (or the
eyelets) - which are 1/8" long, that's the same as the thickness of
the walls. What's to prevent the...

What tools to use when drilling pilot holes for eyelets? by
Cathy Weeks
I bought Cir-Kit's mini drill ($6) and am really glad I did. With an
MDF house, trying to use the pilot hole punch that came with the
wiring kit would be impossible, and even putting the drill bit in the
punch didn't work - I couldn't get the chuck tightened enough, even
with pliers, and trying to...

Hiding the junction splice? by
Cathy Weeks
Ok, I had an idea that I'd like to bounce off you more experienced
people...
The cir-kit instruction booklet has people put the junction splice on
the side of the house on the siding, and I find that to be
unattractive. I want to hide the junction splice under the house
instead:
On the ground...

Mistakes already! How to fix? by
Cathy Weeks
Sigh... the fact that I've already built on dollhouse doesn't count
for much it seems, especially when I built it 12 years ago because
this very simple RGT Victorian Jr already has mistakes.
I primed the housebody and painted the exterior, but didn't pay enough
attention to the instructions where...

sconces and coach lamps by
Cathy Weeks
Ok... I need to run the wiring tape, and I have no fixtures to test
with. I'll get the fixtures in April.
Now, here are my problems:
1. How do I attach exterior coach lamps?
I know that I'll run the tape around the top of the front door, on the
inside. I also know that I'll have to drill...
