    Default Granddad's get to spoil there grandchildren....YES!!!

    G'day Mike,
    That's sure one happy looking little girl who's going to have many hours of play with "The House That Granddad Built".
    The house is way bigger than I realized, it's barbie size like my girls had many years ago; though yours is way better built & presented.
    Cheers, crowie

    Default No girls

    Well, since I have two grandsons and no granddaughters I thought it was OK to make cars etc. But my wife says I'm discriminating that way. She been telling me I have to make girls stuff too... I look at your pics and think this would be fun to make... Maybe as the next project, after the Alter Ego pirate ship...

    Yea, I was told the same thing. It's been fun. The best part, working from your head and solving problems as they arise

    Wow Mike! Great details. I'm surprised to see you doing such detailed work. You seem to have become addicted to it. That is one lucky granddaughter. Wonder what she is going to get when she is older.

    I think it looks fine just like it is Mike. The nail holes in the fence looks like the real thing. I would leave them be if it was me.

    Honest opinions. Do the shutters look ok? I went to buy some doll house siding to make them look more realistic. Can't get it in town
