Constructing a Cardboard Base for Putz Houses

Post by Pete R.Oehmen »

Here's a quick tutorial for making cardboard bases for replacing nice houses that lost theirs. It's a little over engineered as compared to the old Japanese style but they look and feel the same. I think Thomas or Howard might have posted something like this before but I had a client that wanted to know how to make one so I thought I share my way with you.
