The ever popular shed, done perfectly.
i wonder if we can talk him into sharing some of his techniques and experiences

I glue with regular white glue and UHU. I do not know what there is in America. For us in Germany, there is a universal adhesive that can be thinned with acetone.
Paper in different thicknesses. The roofing is made of ordinary typing paper, very thin.
The windows are made of self-adhesive paper overhead transparency. The ribs are cut without regard to the intermediate bars and removed the inner parts carefully.
The door handles are just glue spots. In the picture they are still white. If they are dry they are transparent and can be painted.
The parts are clean cut with a craft knife, described in your manual, work slowly and clean ... and that's about it.

A really fantastic build. Thank you for sharring.
You mention 'self-hesive paper overhead transparency'. Would you please provide the name of the manucature?

I think that's a translation problem. It is very normal self-adhesive paper (printed), from "zweckform", on an overhead transparency film from "sigel".

Really nice job putting that together. Very clean build. When i see something that nice, I think to myself, "man, I've got to get building something!" Thanks for sharing it with everyone!
