Excellent. But there's a gap between the wall and roof!

Its a WIP - the beams between the wall sections have to be lowered a little and then the roof section glued down onto the top of the walls.
 I have to finish all the stuff on the walls first - like the lights/torches, pictures of Zak, broom ( how else will he travel), stand for hat and cloak and a clock so he can tell the time - easier to add them before fitting the roof in place.
Just at the moment spending a lot of time in the garden so not going at Zak speed only warp 6, but will try and speed up to keep you all happy - if that's the word I am looking for hohohohoho

I have a friend who is into carnivorous plants, he once took me up the NYM to see some sundews, I was a little underwhelmed, they were tiny.

Yes but the nepenthes in Bornio can eat things the size of a rat - and my sarracenia are about 12 inches tall.

Scary - the stuff of nightmares, I never did like "The Day of the Triffids".

One of my favorite books as a kid - films don't do it justice.

Decided that Zak needed his house number on the outside of the door for the post man -- hohohoho
Other shot is the start of the lectern for the magic book - yes itwas a pain trying to get the 3 legs the same size/shape :-\ :-\
