A strange one to say the least. but our Granddaughter gave this to Christine for Christmas. Hope you will follow , has wood, fabric, and card in the mix.
I have never seen an instruction book like it, absolutely packed with each stage in depth. Everything per stage is packed into a separate bag all cross referenced .
Just a few photos for the moment, this won't be started and worked on full time, I'll keep going back to it as and when.
Seats available.

Hi John
That looks quite amazing. Never seen anything like that. Your granddaughter obviously gave great thought to something which combines your interest in gardening and modelling. I'll follow with interest. Just love the quirkiness of it.

Thanks Jim, if the plastic kit manufactures copied the instruction methods employed I'd be one happy chap. Wait until you see the plants !

That looks really cool JR. Keep us updated on how it goes. Good luck
Will do Steve.

Please, John, I'd like to book a seat, on the aisle if possible, as I got rather long legs :smiling: and I love to trip the popcorn boy :tongue-out2:.
Andrea.
Decided to ask you to take charge of refreshments Andrea if that's ok .Steve Jones had the job but he's inclined to eat the stock !


Interesting!! And love the instructions!!

Me too Andrew, let's hope that there not by an ex Dragon employee.That do look good , time will tell .
John,
That looks really interesting I will follow along mate. Hope Christine has fun.
Paul she took one look in the box and said " I think you will enjoy this " :smiling3:
That’s amazing John. The instructions, in particular, are a work of art. Is it dolls house scale?
Hi Tim, not sure on that .195 X 175 X 175 is the size . I'll search the booklet to see if there's a mention .



Looks lovely John, so much combustible material there! ;)

Andy.
Good point, but remember Management will be watching , no doubt I'll be under close supervision.:nerd:

If it was an 8 x 6 greenhouse it looks to be around 1:12 scale then John, which is a common dolls house scale :thumb2: .
Going to be a lot of fun anyway, and it’s not even green:tongue-out3:

Hi John, I'd like a seat in there amongst the plants and catching the suns rays.
In Cameron Highlands, the green houses were huge with hundreds of plants and I enjoyed walking along the rows of blooming flowers and greens.
I'll pull up a seat and wait for Andrea to come along and trip him.:tears-of-joy:

Cheers,
Richard

Sorry Richard, I'm already seated and munching my marauder's prize: a bucket of pop corn! :rolling:
You'll have to wait for my "hydraulic crisis" to get me walking.:tongue-out3:

Now Richard no tripping up Andrea, hes quite friendly with Matron so be warned. I've always wanted to go to the Eden Project , maybe one day.

Tony lacking in attachment points for the flame thrower unfortunately. How ever the instructions are superb, each bag is able to be checked off on the sheet . 2 scale sheets so you can identify every wooden part. Can't fault it.

Please note the " hydraulics " are in the cafeteria area marked on the eating plan.

For a change from those figures so yesterday and today I spend the time doing the build. Wow what fun, not using the glue that was supplied, but using Deluxe and their syringe system. Also used CA for the assembly of the small wooden items.

Still loads to do, before I get to start on the green house its self.

The basket was fun, first make up a carboard box then wrap the thread around it . I decided to do the inside as well, using the pva to fix I used a small flat bladed screwdriver to push the thread in to the corners. Flowers were made using a strip of paper, with numerous cuts about half way of the thickness , then rolled and feathered out. That green vegetation came in two colours, certainly something I would like to find on the net. Its like a very very fine washing up pad material.

Thanks for the comments, enjoy and thanks for looking in.
