In the meantime

As we all know, things creatively take longer to make than first thought. I am waiting for the Emersom House to be available. Even though I believe that the makers of this house are a dedicated producer, they wrote that they are still working on the packaging system. This Emerson House has been in production as I have seen for quite a while and I can relax a bit from worrying about the houses I am creating, the Duesbury House and the Bodhi House and the others I like to work on, there is one I have on the drawing board called the Spooky House.
Thank you to all of you who have shown interest in our interest.
Priscila Lima, you must have something to show us miniature wise make a blog

Time for action

When the plywood comes in I have also designed another house called 'The Bodhi House'.
I have been sending my son and his wife pieces of miniature furniture that I make, so I have designed/ designing a sort of beachhouse or shack to put their furniture into. It will be open fronted and clad with (Australian)wriggle 'iron'( corregated 'iron')
I have been wrestling with the use of MDF because of the fragileness waterwise and because of the toxic glue used to make it and also it contains silicon which blunts tools.
I know that it is made from timber as is plywood, but plywood is closer to natural or solid timber.
As plywood is cross layered, it is strong.
As someone said "That what I like about nature, it's so natural"

Still designing

As I work as well as make, the "Duesbury" is becoming very involved for such a 'simple' design.
I am trying to design it to be flat packed so it can be sent anywhere. But as I am a neurotic, perfectionist miniature house designer/ maker. So ever time I get on the computer to tweek the plan I see something needs attention. If bought flat pack, the floors need to slide in in place and the walls placed where needed for support as in a real house. Getting the dimensions is important. Those of you who use drafting software know that near enough is not good enough. Lines that meet in normal view are nowhere near when zoomed.
Anyway the upshot is that the Duesbury is still coming and at the same time I am working on a house with a working name of Spooky House, So more of that soon.
