Bay window
I decided to pad the interior walls of the bay and adjacent walls to give the area a much cleaner look. I just find the connectors to be intrusive and a pain to wallpaper around. For the bay, I used the extra wall pieces from the side bay window I eliminated to make room for the chimney. For the adjacent walls, I used waste wood from the kit boards. The plywood interior trim is pretty shoddy, so I'll likely end up cutting my own. I've heard from others who have built the Heritage and other Dura-Craft houses that once you get the windows and frames painted, the windows no longer work. It's not a terrible disappointment to me that this might be the case since I don't plan to keep opening and closing the windows. Besides, the kit wood is not the best for this kind of wear and tear. One of the windows needs to be glued shut simply because it's the only thing holding the assembly together. The other two I will glue in place partially open. Who doesn't like a bit of fresh autumn air?
