Adding to the electrical after the fact? by
Cathy Weeks
Ok, I just got the electrical starter kit (now if only the rest of the
supplies would arrive, then I can get started!). I know I have to plan
for all outlets and light fixtures now, and that's no problem.
But, the kit doesn't come with the larger brads for the outlets, nor
does it come with...

Started the cottage by
Cathy Weeks
Just wanted to share. I primed and painted the body of the house
tonight. Kind of a pain to do with my wrist in a cast, but definitely
doable. The house walls are "Hazy Green" and the gable I mixed my own
color by adding white to it, to make a pale green. I have a very dark
green, but I didn't...

Covering the edges of rooms? by
Cathy Weeks
One thing I don't like, is when you look into the rooms of the
dollhouse, at the edges of the room dividers and floors is seeing the
layers, of paint, wallpaper, flooring etc. On some pictures I've
seen, it's painted white, which looks nice. But I was wondering if
anyone ever put moulding along...

Another wiring, flooring, and roofing question by
Cathy Weeks
Right now the plan is to do my flooring on cardstock or something like
that, and to run the tape for the first floor ceiling fixtures on the
second floor, then cover it with the flooring which will be fixed down
in a semi-permanant method.
I got to thinking...instead of running the wiring on the...

Instructions for Artply Franklin dollhouse by
Debbie G
I am missing one small corner of the instructions. I believe the
model is about 15 years old - my mother-in-law bought it and never
assembled it before her death. One small corner of the instruction
sheet torn off, and rather than guess about the instructions I thought
it best to see if anyone...

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...

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...

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...

Mini Cole Jaws by
Chuck
I just bought a set of mini cole jaws for my SuperNova, and it came
with a set of screws for mounting on the jaw slides that are twice as
long as are needed. Anyone know what they are for? They're listed in
the manual but I can't see any use for them.
TIA

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...
