Carl,
I'm trying to keep a "lid" on that information, until I get a "handle" on the assembly.
I'd hate for anyone to "tank" based on my instructions. :-)

"Butt" you didn't even use the emoticon with the "flushed" "cheeks". :-$
(just thought I'd "pipe" in)

Dave,
I would have used the emoticon, but i didn't want to "bowl" you over with added info, or unnecessarily create a "flap."
Besides, I wasn't sure if the idea would "float." :-)

Glad to hear your boy enjoyed it.
I had hoped to design it so it would not need glue, except for the tires. Did yours go together tight?
Question to all; Has anybody tried making it with acrylic? I would like to see what colored acrylic would look like??

Tom, Do you sell those plans for the doll house? My wife has wanted me to make her a doll house every since I got my laser. That has been 6 years now.

Hi James,
That is a long time to keep a wife waiting :-) I haven't decided what I'm going to do. Our business has been to create High-Profit product designs and the Doll House, I fear, will confuse people on what we offer.
My thinking is, (hopefully you can follow my untrained thought), when you first get a cell phone the company will give you all kinds of freebies to sign a contract. When you open a large Bank account you get to pick from a toaster or such. The customer who is still your customer gets nothing, actually in the cell phone case sometimes their stuck with higher monthly fees. I was thinking why not award your current customers with a monthly fun project. This is what I'm leaning to if I can create understandable instructions :S
I had someone in the shop suggest I use the plans to give away at the trade shows in exchange for business cards and e-mail addresses for future contacts, but I'm leaning more to my original idea.
I am working on another house plan that was supposed to be simpler, less wood, easier to assemble. I failed, it is now over 300 pieces, three stories with stairs again, and even a second floor wrap around porch, I just can't control myself. When I get it finished I'll post a picture.
I don't like to see a child disappointed (in this case your wife) If you go to our website and e-mail me I'll send you my first house I built, (I made plans for this one, it was made for an architect) with little effort I believe you can redesign it into a Doll House.

Bachi,
I do not have instructions made for the Doll House as of yet. I will be sharing designs in the future, I'm just not sure how and when.

When I was younger I built a model house and the furniture to go in it. Back in those days I had to cut my own shingles and floorboards. That picture is making me want to start building again. If only I had the free time.

I understand free time, RR time. Some people go bowling, fishing, etc. others like me just cannot leave the shop to get our rest & relaxation. I spent way to many after hours making this, BUT!!!
You should have seen the face on the adorable 3 year old when I gave the house to her.
