It's more "instant gratification" when you don't have to wait for glue to dry or for things you ordered to arrive and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Looking great, and I agree with that it is so nice to have things at the ready when one needs them in the build as not to have to wait for getting them in the mail or needing to run out and get this that or whatever... Hugs and thanks for the ideas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wenlaine Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 How true, Anna. The doorknobs look great, Margaret. And you will be glad you have them when you do need them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PATBIDLACK Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Making your own knobs is a great idea. I have been just cruising greenleaf forums and absorbing ideas. thanks all of you. I am working on the pierce presently. I also have the canterbury waiting and half to admit I bought one of those scary dura craft houses on ebay. I should have known that it was too inexpensive to be good. I haven't started on it yet. (give me strength) but I did read some posts on the forums about how bad it was to put together.

Wolfie Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I love using the little silicon balls you can find in the little bags in many products to keep things from getting moist. They look like crystal and are mostly see-through. Yours are simply lovely Margaret! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I did read some posts on the forums about how bad it was to put togetherHuh? I've built the all-wood San Franciscan and the Cambridge, and have a Newberg waiting "in the wings" (actually in the box). Every kit has its good points and its bad points.

PATBIDLACK Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 "What house is it may i ask i built the newberg and am still working on it and it was not that bad at al" Traci It is the Newberg. I read somewhere here on the forum that the parts were miscut. I am waiting to have it delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your doorknobs turned out beautifully Margaret! I stupidly bought doorknobs, without thinking about making them. Thanks for the great ideas!
