The frame of the removable roof is completed! All it took was plenty of patience, plenty of glue, and a camera, which i not only used to take the following pictures, but as a weight to hold the long bars of the roof in place. No, the camera was not simply plonked onto the little structure, but was placed onto a small nail which was balanced on the end of the long bars to hold it down while the glue dried.
Anyway, here is the progress:
The triangles and the long bars attached - you wouldn't believe how fiddly those triangles are!
Finally - placed on the house. It's far from perfect, but it'll do for a first time scratchbuilder!
I had to leave minor gaps on each end to ensure that the roof would be able to lift off without grading and catching on either side. Next: the wooden boards on the walls
