Stage 1:

Print out the first page, cut out the shapes and glue all

the 'top sides' to heavy card.

I recommend you obtain some 'mounting board' from

an art supply shop or picture framer.

Using a sharp craft knife and a ruler Cut out the pieces.

Glue the 'under side' textures to the cut out pieces.

Score the wall section heavily and assemble the floor

as shown - note that you need remove a bit from the

bottom edge of the walls where the platform sticks out

from the floor.

Roof Assembly:

Score heavily and assemble as shown.

Use a piece of sticky tape on the inside to

hold while glue dries.

Under side texture:

Rotate the under side texture 180

to the top card section so that the

joins are not in the same place

and insert - using spray mount or

PVA to glue in place.

Assembly of scaffold

Requirements:

roof support 40mm

1 pack of bar-b-que skewers

1 needle-saw or stanley knife

Method:

top strut 65mm

Using the diagram shown here

cut or saw the skewers into the

appropriate lengths indicated.

You will require 4 of each length.

Note: You can use the pointed

end of the skewer to give a

pointed end to the 4 uprights

which can then be used to

spike the tower into the

ground if you have a soft

base board.

Assemble two sides using

PVA glue - use a craft knife

to 'nick' the skewers at the

joints so the 'marry' when

assembled - this give added

strength. Allow plenty of

drying time for the PVA.

bottom strut 85mm

Connect the two sides with

the remaining struts to

complete the stucture.

You can stab the uprights

into some cardboard to

aid in final assembly.

Ladder:

Stage 1:

The ladder was constructed

simply from scale timber

from the model shop.

Having made two smal 'nicks'

in each upright - place the uprights

on the diagram provided using that

as a guide and glue on the upper

and lower struts using PVA glue.

No magic here - just

make yourself a 'spacer'

to ensure you get the

rungs evenly spaced.

Allow sufficient drying time before

flipping the frame over and gluing

on the diagonal cross member.

Constuct two frames as above.l

Stage 2:

Support the two sides using

plasticene or poke the feet

through some thick cardboard

and glue in place the last

upper and lower struts, resting

them on top of the ones

already in place.

Glue the cross members on

the 'inside' of the structure as

shown.
