I have a small base for the house and wanted a way to secure the house to the base without permanently gluing it yet. I came up with a sort of pier block idea. I cut half inch square blocks that are the same depth as under the base of the house. I secured them to the house in the corners with glue dots. The glue dots aren't permanent and are just lightly enough attached to hold the "piers" in place so that I could position the house onto the base, permanently gluing the "piers" to the base. When the glue was dry, I was able to gently pop the house off the piers and remove the glue dots. Now the base has permanent piers and I can remove the house from the base when needed as I finish construction. This also allows me to work on the landscaping for the base separately from the house.

So far, it's working
