      They aren’t ‘expensive tool no one can afford’…they are tools for different people. Ei. Hobbyists and professionals. Professionals started as hobbyists too, but when you are skilled enough and you no longer find interest in overly repetitive tasks, you are being paid, and you are on a time crunch…you get professional tools.

    When I was just a little kiddo, I liked to make little fairy houses. But all I had were styrofoam cups, duct tape, markers, and scissors, but I did the best I could. It makes me smile to see something like this in the making.

      Hrmmmm....
      What decade were you a child?
      When I was in late elementary school (around aged 9), Legos already existed.
      Prior to that, there was Lincoln Logs that came in a tall, cylindrical canister.
      And Barbie with her inflatable furniture as well as Playskool's Little People that were made out of plastic heads and wooden bodies ... the latter with a tri-storied garage, an aeroport, construction site, and a house that opened up like a book...
      And other Playskool toys that were made from hybrid materials of plastic and wood.
      I had the ENTIRE Playskool family as well as two dollhouses, the aeroport/plane, garage, and a musical merry-go-round/ferris wheel.

      @moumitamandal3235 um. If you doesn't get hit or dropped it will last a long time. Depending on how you place your stones can make it weaker to but I mean I've dropped one I made and only the a few of the top layer of stones came off. So it's decently strong. There is also kinds of that cement that is for outdoors and lasts longer also.

    Decades ago I build a wall using shale collected from the local creek bed. I still have that diorama, with a Luchs abandoned beside the gate to a French farm, for lack of gasoline. Natural materials are easy to collect. Last summer I collected two buckets of road fill, bought a set of sieves from Amazon and now have all the rocks, stones, talus and dirt I'll ever need. Collect large plastic jars and off you go.

    Lovely. I'd build it around a large cut-out hole in the floor, so I could add a light inside it. If you experiment with window shape, size and style, you might even give yourself room to put acat in the window. Flower boxes in the window? This is such a convincing base, so it's fun to think about the extras that might work with it. Maybe with some effort I could even find little geometric stain glass window-hangings to build in, allowing for some stain glass windows. alongside the normal ones.

    04:52, tip for improving your windows: You need to add a bulkhead, because you want the head-bar to bear the load of whatever comes on top. Instead with your window the forces are punctually distributed on the narrower side linings or jamb and the whole window is basically kept up by the mullion or sash bars. The head should be 'the head' of a window to spread the top-load evenly. Your windows only cover side load.
    And no, I'm not a carpenter either. Your door hinges should also be inside the house, not outside, but i understand you did that for 'the looks'. Apart from that, nice built!

    • @prunabluepepper
      @prunabluepepper Рік тому +1

      @@artandarchitecture6399 One should think that, but the stone lintel itself distributes the weight to the lower stones, that in turn need to distribute the force somewhere. The force is not distributed straight down, as the window opening offers an area of stress release.
