Instructions
Making a Wendy House!
Print:
6x Corner pieces.
2x Left gable.
2x Right gable.
Cut:
8x 70cm length 1/2" PVC pipe.
5x 80cm length 1/2" PVC pipe.
4x 49.5cm length 1/2" PVC pipe.
Assemble:
1. Base.
4x Corners with 2x 70cm and 2x 80cm in opposite sides to form a rectangle, with the third connector on the corners facing upwards.
2. Uprights.
4x 70cm pipes in the open connectors on the base. You should have an 'open basket' looking shape, or a spiky crown shape.
3. Gables.
Starting at one end, take 1x Left Gable and 1x Right Gable, and 1x 70cm pipe. With the 45 degree angle facing 45 degrees upwards from the horizon, socket your gable pieces on to a pair of uprights. (Pairs being the narrow end of rectangle.) Use the 70cm pipe to connect across the gable pieces, forming a rectangle on the side of your house.
4. Wall Edges.
Take 2x 80cm pieces of pipe, and connect your gable ends together. You should have a cuboid now!
5. Roof.
Take the 4x 49.5cm pieces of pipe and the two remaining corner connectors. Socket the short pipes into the 45 degree angle gables and then join them with the corner connectors. You should have an almost complete house - just the final roof ridge.
6. Ridge.
Use the last, 80cm pipe to connect the two gable ends across the top.
