Hi all, How do I post a photo? I was recently gifted a house from a neighbor and I would like to know if anyone knows what kit it is? It has a few extra tabs and slots that are not used so I’m curious to find photos to see what it’s missing. The house has plastic sheet siding and paper shingles.

Tina, when you have made five posts you can make albums of your photos.  If you have the house's photos on a web site you can post the link.

Thank you! I have them on a FB post but it won’t let me link that. I’ll post photos eventually after 5 posts.

That is the Skilcraft Country Manor House.  It was a kit house.  Skilcraft did some great kits!  I have one of their kits in my stash.

Omg thank you! Just from this picture I know I’m missing the chimney, stairs, and a lot of railing and railing posts. Figuring out what do do about the railings is going to be the biggest challenge.

Strip wood and either turned toothpicks from Cracker Barrel or the handles from turned cocktail picks.

Thanks for this suggestion! I’ll keep that in mind as I build out the house. Since I do have about half of the railings I really want to match them, but I don’t have a way to do that myself which is frustrating.

Save them for another house, if you can't find bits to match, and ,ake new ones to fit this one.  If you eventually find more that match the originals, you can always switch them out.
