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.

You HAVE TO stop showing us these really cool 3-D toys! I don't have a laser, can't really afford a laser, and other than to make your 3-D toys, have not immediate need for a laser.....so why am I dreaming of buying a laser?

So, Please do not EVER make these patterns available....it would cost me oh, so much money! :-)  :-)  (devil)

Thank you.

Here is what i made from your file in mdf.
The model is 30 inch high

I have finished the instructions for the latest house design, I'm going to bring it with me to the Indianapolis NBM show to see what the reaction is.

Do you think laser owners would want to make these products to sell??

Well, I don't know about anyone else but I do. LOL I think they would be great sellers. People just don't make nice dollhouses like this (at least in my area) anymore.

And with the ability to customize the design to say, put a house number or the person's last name on it. You bet!!

My mother in law even collects dolls and said this would make a fantastic addition to her display. (She does a lot of Victorian dolls)

Now, with the laser time and assembly time involved, could we make it and still price it to be affordable, that's another question. It may be an item that is a "special gift" for friends and family members.
But I think it would be a great conversation piece as well as a play piece for little girls

Becky thanks for the feedback.

I read somewhere you could use an item or something to help you out. :-) 

How about you helping me to see if the instructions work for this 3 story house. The first one will take the longest to make, but there are shortcuts that are hard to explain in the instructions.

If you'd like to help me by being the testor (or would that be the testee?), please e-mail and I can get you the pattern to get started. Then call me for shortcuts or questions.

Sorry, this offer is just for Becky :S 

Thanks Buzz! I will PM you (actually I think I did it several times)
Becky

Becky,
If you could send an e-mail through our web-site I know how to attach the files that way.

Will do Buzz!! I am anxious to get this file from you. We have a show coming up that I would like to take this to for some feedback.
Thanks
Becky

Becky,
Did you get the download OK?

Yes I did Buzz. I will work on it this weekend and let you know how I make out. I will "buzz" you if I have any questions. LOL
Thanks again so much
Becky

Becky,
I'm anxious to hear if you had any problems with the directions to put the Doll House together or I should say did you figure out my assembly instructions?
Second, how did the house turn out and what response did you get from the family?

Buzz, You are a truely amazing craftsman and you must have equally amazing patience.
I also checked out your website. Nice items and very reasonably priced.
Bill

I have sent you a private message on your email (too lengthy to post here but I will if you want). Let me know what you think!!

Fabulous design!! You are a very talented aritsan and it makes a fun project to work on!!
Becky

Thanks Bill, watch for the new design I will be sending to Harvey to download. I almost sent it out last week but I haven't had time to check the assembly directions for errors. I think I'll release it as is and let everyone get puzzeled from the directions:-)

Once I get all the feedback on what to correct then I can make the changes, I have one person who contacted me to offer instructional writing help in exchange for designs, sounds good to me since I find that is the hardest part.

I tend to overlook the necessary instructions needed. My analogy is like teaching a person to drive a standard, I would tell them to shift to second when you hit about twenty miles an hour and forget to tell them to push in the clutch. >.<
