Architecture Process (December 6)

We had everything cut out. In the end, we chose to cut windows. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. First, we had to drill a hole in the area where we wanted our window. Then, we had to unscrew the saw and insert the blade through the hole. We attached the saw back together and cut according to our lines. We repeated that process for every window.

We stuck the front part of the cathedral onto a piece of wood. It didn't line up very accurately because some pieces of wood were slightly longer. Anyways, we used a white glue to stick it on. We made a simple design for the big window in front.

When everything was cut out, we started assembling all the little pieces together. We glued 3/5 pillars on each side. We didn't stick the other 4 because we were afraid that it would affect the long clamp's clamping.

Secondly, we glued the 2 sides to the front. We used large clamps to hold it in place.

(you might not see it, but the two spaces are uneven) 

Thirdly, we separately attached the back pieces together. Then, as a whole, we attached the back section to the rest of the structure. The long clamps were not long enough, so we clamped the long clamp in the hole of a window. (not pictured, sorry)

Finally, we attached the roof onto the structure.

There were a few gaps in the structure. So, we ended up using skewer sticks to cover the gaps and holes up.

This project is pretty much complete. We only need to decorate it up a bit and stick the final points on the back. Well, we stuck them on. The points looked kind of short and stocky, but it was better than having a flat top.

Finally finished!!!
