THE GHOST HOUSE –
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS page 4.
Place the roof in position (with the arrow on the bottom pointing towards the front
of the house) and glue in place. This can be a little tricky, but it helps to use a large
drop of glue on each corner, let it dry till it’s tacky, place the roof in position and
then give it a while to dry. The rafters on the roof’s bottom panel should overhang
the walls of the house as shown in Figure 5. It’s OK if there’s a small gap between
the roof and the tower, we’ll be adding more there later. Note: The corner tabs with
green and yellow dots should still be exposed, as shown in Figure 6.
After the roof is in place and the glue’s dry, cut out the UPSTAIRS ROOF on page
8. Fold all five tabs DOWNWARD and then fold DOWNWARD along the blue lines
between the two shingle panels and between the shingle and bottom panels. Then
fold the triangular wall panel DOWNWARD along the blue line. Glue the tab with
the green dot to the inside of the adjoining shingle panel. Glue the tab with the red
dot to the inside of the adjoining triangular wall panel. Now glue the blank gray tab
to the inside of the adjoining shingle panel and glue the two tabs with blue dots
directly over each other. Place glue on the house’s two remaining tabs (with the
green and yellow dots) and on the UPSTAIRS ROOF’s tab (with the blue dot).
Position the UPSTAIRS ROOF in the same manner as the main roof and glue in
place.
Next cut out the TOWER ROOF on Page 3. Fold DOWNWARD along the blue
lines between all five panels. Glue the blank brown panel to the inside of the
opposite shingle panel. Glue the TOWER ROOF over the blank tabs on the
TOWER. The model should now resemble Figure 7.
Now cut out the CHIMNEY on Page 6. Fold the gray tab DOWNWARD and then
fold each brick panel DOWNWARD along the blue lines. Fold the four black tabs
DOWNWARD and glue them to the back of the opposite panels. Fold the two small
shingle panels UPWARD along the green lines. Then glue the gray tab to the
inside of the opposite brick panel. Connect the CHIMNEY to the ROOF BACK by
placing the chimney over the black rectangle and gluing the shingle panels directly
above and below the black rectangle, as shown in Figure 8.
Next cut out the HALL ROOF on Page 6. Fold DOWNWARD between the two
shingle panels (along the blue line) and then fold both gray panels DOWNWARD.
Glue the two gray panels directly over each other. Place the HALL ROOF between
the TOWER and the ROOF FRONT as shown in Figure 9, with the gray panel
resting against the tower. Glue the gray panel to the tower.
