Dollhouse for Peaches Day 3
Yes, it really does take an entire day to do a staircase! I am making it very similar to a real staircase - ie: it will be anotomically correct! :)
I started by making two exact stringers, or stair horses. I glued and brad nailed a 1/4" peice of maple on the back, like this:
Then, I glued and finished nailed the assembly into place, like this:
I also countersunk some screws into the bases of the stair horses to secure it into place forever!
I added treads and risers, and let Barbie try it out!!!
As you can see, Barbie has plenty of head room to move around on each floor of the house. Again, a doll is 11"+ high, and this is why this house is so big!
I had a little time left in the day, so I managed to get some of the interior walls cut and set into place. Now, its beginning to take some shape!
Modeling the new stairs...
