other assorted pieces to my scale and design. He works with wood and
metal and does a really nice job. I just have to stain/paint the
pieces. The prices are fair and I get the stuff made the way I want
it. Let me know if anyone...

magnetic wire by
Herb
Do you mean "magnet wire", the kind of ultra-thin wire used to wind
electro-magnets? I wouldn't think so, but I'd check its ability to
carry the current load you need (typically a couple of hundred milliamps
at 12 V.) without getting warm or worse.
If you REALLY mean magnetIC wire (wire that's...

Goodbye for awhile by
Cathy Weeks
Well... I'm moving to Minnesota from New Jersey, so my dollhouse is
quite on hold - I've got too many rennovations on my full-sized house
to oversee - I just don't have time for the hobby.
I'll see you guys in a few months when I get settled!

lamps/lighting by
[email protected]
Today I found a box containing a lamp I purchased some years ago. Long
enough ago to have forgotten where I bought it. I do remember the woman
I bought it from made the lamp herself, in fact she had a whole line of
them. Anyway, the wiring is not coated with insulation. They're just

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...

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.

Dollhouse Kit by
Thomas Mitchell
My wife and I received our first dollhouse kit. We ordered last week
without knowing a lot. We purchased The Orchard by Corona Concepts. I
thought I read here or on a website that most dollhouses are made from
1/4" plywood. This kit is made from 1/8" plywood and I don't recall
seeing that stated on...

the KC NAME show by
Dawn
What a disappointment. Our local spring show was cancelled so the
national show could be held this fall. I'm not sure what the point was,
this wasn't any larger than we usually get. And, it was downtown at the
Crown Plaza, alongside the quilt show, the KC Royal parade, Octoberfest,
and some...
