Love Post Office Update #4

The structures are up and I’m almost done yay! :blush: One more day of working on this and I think it’ll be complete, I would’ve been done sooner but I hit a roadblock.

I just love putting all the parts together!

And one of my favourite parts - pasting wallpaper.

And here is where I unleashed my censored vocabulary and admitted defeat. I simply could not for the life of me bend this thick as wire to match the diagram printed on the paper. My fingers and pliers would break long before this wire decides to be bent at straight angles. :melting_face: I then realised I could’ve just tried using the edge of my table to get sharp bends but I couldn’t be bothered anymore. :laughing: This post office is just going to have to live with wonky plumbing.

This is where I take a break as I’ve run out of time. :front_facing_baby_chick:

It’s a solid metal wire haha! I did try straightening it but I was leaving too many marks with my pliers and it was getting late so I’m going to leave it. :laughing:

Interesting, this kit’s structure is similar to a book nook. I am enjoying seeing your photos documenting the experience.

You’re so close now, it’s looking great. Putting up the structure and wallpaper is always one of the most satisfying parts. And don’t worry about the wire, sometimes it just refuses to cooperate no matter what we do :joy:

Hahaha yes! Normally my OCD wouldn’t allow me to but there’s nothing I can do with this wire so I’m giving up at the right time. :laughing:

Maybe roll it over a flat surface to straighten it and then indeed use the corner of the table to make sharp bends
