I’m working on the 2 window church, but it is coming along slow, summer takes me outside to play in my yard.
I am making the base shown in the original church and I wanted to share the pattern I made for this house. This pattern can be made any size by adding or removing the pickets on each side. The first base I made the original house had a bit more space from the last picket to the back, so I made this one the same, but this can also be adjusted. I have the pattern and a second one with the score lines and the cutting lines color coded. The original bases did not have a bottom, but I always add one to mine for strength and hopefully a long life. On the underneath of the top I glue a support from the back corners curved as close to the gate open without seeing it The bottom is just a flat rectangle cut the size of the of top. I glued this piece on top of the sides and the brace. I do add glue around the outside edges so it will be a bit sturdier.
Priming will be next….
