At last! I opened the box and took inventory and put all the plywood sheets into numerical order so I can find them without having to look all over for the numbers.I began reading over the instructions, I'll have to do the first read in increments. Meanwhile I studied the schematics and the photos to decide on rooms.A friend claimed this one before I ever got the box opened and has let me know some of the details she wants, so this will be the first house I have ever built to anyone's specs but my own. It should be an interesting ride.I began prep by measuring for & scribing the floorboards in the parlor. I still have the board ends to scribe & the "nailholes" to punch, but now it's late & my back is sore.G'night.complements of havanaholly
