Building 1781 the Ponderosa
These pictures support and augment the instructions, but they are not a replacement!

These pictures are of a build that was done in a different order from the instructions (advanced builders do that sort of thing[??]). Any time you change your order of assembly from those shown in the instructions, test ahead so you know your order will work.
This collection is still under construction. Stop back often for more content and captions.


Follow the steps on the 1700 Series page for Housebody assembly, except for the hinging sections.
