Building the Beachside Bungalow part 02

 

Watch the video here.

 

 




This week we are starting to assemble some of the pieces that will make up front porch.


First we assembled the railings. There are 3 separate parts to the railings, one long section and 2 short ones. The gluing guide included in the kit made this part of the project really easy. In the past when I wanted to glue parts like this I first had to make myself a jig to help with the gluing. This was much easier and faster.






The next parts we worked on were the post bases. These are what support the porch posts and I am going to use the same fun finish on them that I will be using on the foundation. These were again really easy to put together. If you make this kit up be sure to watch that you are making mirror image post bases for the ends. Also take you time in lining up the pieces and check that the everything is nice and squared before the glue dries. 



And lastly we assembled the porch posts. When I started filming I had not intended to do these this week. I was going to do them next week. But as I sat down to edit the video I decided it just made more sense to work on them this week. They only took a short while to make and I am glad to have them ready to go. 

 



I hope you are enjoying the build so far, if you have questions be sure to ask.


See you next week.
