kellyannmo Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I just got my Cir-Kit tape wire kit in the mail... I bought it from an Ebay seller... and there is no instruction booklet inside :idea: I sent the seller an email... but who knows if he has one or if he will even answer me.... that's what I get for trying to save a few dollars. I have absolutely no clue how to install this... and was anxious to get started..... sniffle..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minifan Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Why don't you pick up this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 There are instruction books onCir-Kit's website. Or, if you have a Hobby Lobby nearby, they also have the book. You could also look through posts here, there have been lots of discussion on wiring. http://cirkitconcepts.com/shop/index.php?m...dex&cPath=3 Good luck! You'll be just fine. :idea: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Also, a while back, there was a whole Greenleaf Gazette dedicated to wiring. http://www.greenleafdollhouses.com/dollhou...s-FEB-2009.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellyannmo Posted March 29, 2011 Author Share Posted March 29, 2011 thank you ladies... I don't have a hobby lobby near me... I'd have to order the book... I did look at it on the Cir-Kit site.... I will look at the Gazette, thank you so much.... everything was moving along so nicely... this is my first hurdle (the first of many I am sure... LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrwils0972 Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I would try contacting Cir-Kit directly to let them know you have one of their kits, but don't have the instructions. They may offer to send you a free replacement or at the worst, send it for a nominal fee. I saw one site selling the kit instruction book for only $1.67, so I don't think they would have a problem providing you with one to make you a happy customer. :idea: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheckMouse Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Also, a while back, there was a whole Greenleaf Gazette dedicated to wiring. http://www.greenleafdollhouses.com/dollhou...s-FEB-2009.html Thank you, thank you, :idea: thank you, Tracy for this link! This has been bugging me for a long time too. That Gazette really covers the material! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he is updating it today to include instructions on the roundwire/solidwire supplies. I've been asking about it on their facebook page.

Ravenswing Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 All is not lost, right here on the Greenleaf forum there is a fabulous tutorial by Darrell Payne called "Electrifying a Dollhouse", he also has a blog on the internet, and here's the link to the Greenleaf Gazette which featured his tutorial http://www.greenleafdollhouses.com/dollhou...hting-kits.html. Step by step instructions with clear color photographs...he even shows you what tools you'll need to get it done. Don't worry, it's easy as pie :idea: . Now you can get started right away and you don't have to search for books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
