Cubby house plans

[johnmw1]

Hi,

I'm sure this has been asked lots of times, but does anyone have any cubby house plans or know where I could access some from. I've done a search but have not come up with anything at all.

Xmas is marching on (yeah I'm sure you all wanted to hear that) and I would love to be able to build something for my 8yr old daughter to give her a little bit of real estate of her own.

Thanks
John

Hi Karl,

I had forgotten about U-bild, I remember I used to look at their designs in the 70s.

And by the looks of it some of the designs have not changed since then, but they do have 2 playhouse designs which are worth a look, so thanks for the link.

Mitre 10 also have DIY plans for a cubby house. Wouldn't be too hard to modify it to suit and the best bit is that they are free

Just as a heads up to anyone else looking for cubby house plans and drawings, I somehow stumbled across these on ebay. They are available in volumes 1,2, and 3, and I managed to win each of them for a very modest outlay of $5.50 each. I shall have to of course wait to see what quality and detail are truly included in them.

He also has some woodworking Cd's as well.

I wonder will this really be a cheaper alternative building it myself, compared to forking out 12 or 14 hundred dollars plus shipping?

Thanks
John

No plans but plenty of pictures for ideas:

A Sydney based company but they appear willing to ship prefab for DIY installation anywhere in Australia.
Maybe they will sell you just the plan(s)?
