I think I was in denial for so long but when it came time to glue thing up I had to face the facts.

It makes so much more sense to have the fireplace wall be a structural support too.... you are already claiming the floor and wall-space for it... make it do the structure work too! Your stairs are awesome and the pre-cut holes for spindles are perfect! I always enjoy the hall/entry space as a separate one anyway.... now you get to make that stand out too! I hope you enjoy your time at the lake and I look forward to learning how your windows will work!!! :)Daydreamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06170115485686244907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-61420677305388116952018-07-07T11:00:35.835-04:002018-07-07T11:00:35.835-04:00Incredible Kristine!

The view down the hall with all the arches is magical now, and sure to be even more stunning when completed. Congrats on completing the laser cutting and moving into the next exciting phase! Can't wait to see the next steps in the process!Jodi Hipplerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17493172804253306940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-44977722663618929442018-07-06T16:33:26.815-04:002018-07-06T16:33:26.815-04:00I love the new design with the hallway!

What you've come up with is wonderful. Are you going to carry the fireplace up through the second and third floors? That would make a very cozy library/office or master suite over the living room.<br /><br />I do love the shelves on the original fireplace wall. The give the space interest and if you paint them the same color as your walls with the back of the shelves an accent color they won't make the room feel too dark. That's my only problem with wood stain. It can feel very oppressive after a while. But you also have windows on either side so the light will be lovely coming in, nice and bright!Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11074992134112478195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-5170582968606544002018-07-06T11:06:10.668-04:002018-07-06T11:06:10.668-04:00Sarah Richardson - LOOK OUT! ❤️❤️❤️Sarah Richardson - LOOK OUT! ❤️❤️❤️elizabeth shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09042037455600427075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-90454851907353840462018-07-06T11:03:42.365-04:002018-07-06T11:03:42.365-04:00Thank you Genevieve!

I suppose it's to save space. It will be interesting to make the railing next and figure out the math for that. <br />I'm going to try Autodesk's Fusion 360 for the 3D printing. It seems very professional and extensive. If you are interested in the program I can send you more info, they offer licensing options for hobbyists/start-ups at no cost. Tinkercad just wasn't giving me enough options and this one looks promising. Hopefully I can be more precise with my designs and cut down on material costs. It is much more complicated then anything I've used before so I really do mean it when I say I plan to sit and watch all the educational master course videos. I've done part one so far. It will be the perfect thing to work on while I'm away. I'll let you know how it goes!Kristine PaperDollMiniatureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04348940337267272223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776777711016680502.post-76757373441103393102018-07-06T06:29:57.240-04:002018-07-06T06:29:57.240-04:00It's looking better and better.

And you are right: in most houses they are way too steep to resemble reality. So, yours look great and fit the scene - well done. Fun, isn't it? :-)<br />What is the new 3D program you are learning? I work with Live Interior 3D.. but it is a little limited when it comes to customizing objects...<br />marionswisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129590299334973744noreply@blogger.com
