Glued the last wall in the main building and started the small annex
One thing I learned working with wood was always dry clamp before committing to glue. It is no different when working with plastic or hydrocal. Even after initial sanding I found some air gaps due to wavy edges and promptly sanded those smooth. Not shown is one glue joint on the main building I applied some Squadron putty to. I will take a photo once I sand it down. Depending on how it looks I will apply putty to the other glue joints.
I continued to glue the deck bents. I have decided to build them to instructions then later see if I can build a separate roof structure. I took one roof post from the Atlas O Ice House kit to use as a measuring tool for the Berkshire Valley kit. This post measures 2 3/8 inches or about 9 feet.
According to the instructions I am to start gluing the individual bents to the annex and main building in order to complete building the deck however I have chosen not to do this. I will have to figure out another way to complete the deck for two reasons
1. I don't want to ship the structure with the deck attached to the building as I think this will present a major issue since the deck is made from very light fragile wood.
2. The instructions assume the building has been painted and all the wood has been stained. I plan on building the entire deck first then painting.
