Use a wooden match or similar material to make wooden beams. (If you don't want to glue the roof in place, you will need to make a framework.)

Trace the shapes of the short sides of the building on styrofoam to make roof supports. Cut and trim to fit inside the walls. Check how the roof fits and fold it accordingly. The roof should overhang the building slightly, so glue the supports a few millimeters in from each end of the roof.

Fit the roof onto the building. If you want the roof permanently attached, just glue it in place.

TIPS FOR MAKING THIS PAPER BUILDING

- Print on heavy weight paper (125lb. or 200g/m2). Allow to dry.

- Cut out the building parts with a sharp hobby knife. Use a metal ruler to cut along straight lines.

- Mark the folding lines on the blank sides of the building faces. Use the hobby knife to score the lines.

- Fold building walls using your fingernail to make the folds sharp. Make the corners square. Fit the building together to see how it looks.

- Cut the base out of cardboard or styrofoam. Glue the base a few millimeters from the bottom edge of the building. The small gap between the base and the bottom of the walls will allow the building to sit in your terrain rather than on top of it.

- Trace the shape of the flat short side of the building on styrofoam twice. Cut and trim to fit inside the building walls. These pieces will support the roof. Check how the roof fits and fold it accordingly. The roof should overhang the building slightly, so glue the supports a few millimeters in from each end of the roof. Glue the shed roof to a roof support making sure it will sit straight on the shed when the roof is in place.

- Fit the roof onto the building. If you want the roof permanently attached, just glue it in place.

- Attach chimneys and details as desired.

- You may wish to spray a protective matte varnish on your finished building.

TIPS FOR THTS BUILDING- This windmill is quite complicated to build, so try out the easy buildings first.

- Print both pages on heavy weight paper (125lb. or 200g/m2).

- Cut out the building parts with a sharp hobby knife. Use a metal ruler to cut along straight lines.

- Mark the folding lines on the blank sides of the building faces. Use the hobby knife to score the lines.

- Refer to the photos at left to fold the walls correctly. Use your fingernail to make the folds sharp. Make the corners square and fir the building together to see how it looks.

- Cut the base out of cardboard or styrofoam using the template on the second page. You may need more than one layer to get the right thickness. Glue the base a few millimeters from the bottom edges of the walls. The small gap between the base and the wall edges will allow the model to sit in your terrain rather than on top of it.

- Check how the roofs fit and fold them accordingly. You can glue them in place or leave them unglued so they remain detachable. In that last case, use two triangular pieces of cardboard or styrofoam and glue inside the roofs to make them sturdy.

- Cut the wall of the mill just next to the windows (as marked) to make the seam less noticeable. Make a slightly tapered cylinder. You may wish to glue the walls around a coin for a base.

- Mark the folding lines and use a knife to score the white inside of the roof. Fold the roof and use your fingernail to make the folds sharp. Curve the sides and glue together. Check how it fits on the wall and cut the edge accordingly in a round shape.

- Use plastic or wood to make beams in the lengths shown at left. Stick the 28mm and 35mm beams through the roof as shown in the photos. Attach the other beams to those beams as shown in the photo and diagram at left

Attach 4 strips of screen mesh to the 65mm beams to form the sails of the windmill.

Paint the hill to green resemble grass. Green sawdust or flocking makes a nice textured ground cover. Use balsa wood or similar material for a roof over the little building next to the hill. Add chimneys or other details as desired.

Protect your model with a coat of spray matte varnish.
