Book Overview
This text presents five dolls' house projects that aim to appeal to dolls' house makers and model-makers alike. Complete plans and instructions are given for: a traditional cider barn; a forge complete with hearth, anvil, bellows and workbench; a small country pub with a fully equipped bar and lean-to store; and an electronically-powered watermill where the undershot wheel actually operates the millstones, sack hoist and flour dresser. For the more ambitious woodworker, there is a nine-roomed Georgian house with a pull-out garden incorporated into the base.

For the really serious dollhouse builder
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book gives measured drawings and building instructions for five different buildings: a cider barn, a forge, the "Swan Inn", a really large Georgian house and a water mill. These are not (with the exception of the Georgian house) your "typical dollhouse". Still, the buildings are charming, the directions are complete and you might be TIRED of typical dollhouses. There are also many color photos of finished interiors, and a last chapter devoted to the workshop which covers safety, tools and techniques.
great resource!!!!
