Garage Kit

|
No prior knowledge of construction techniques and special setups needed. ¾" scale model kits that faithfully duplicate real wood frame structures. All wall framings can be done right on the working drawings provided. Instructions written in short, simple language explain how each piece of lumber serves a particular purpose in the wall frame according to building codes and more. The ¾" scale lumber is cut to a tolerance of thousandths of an inch. Lumber provided in standard dimensions of 2x4, 1x6, 2x6, 2x8, 4x4, etc., is the same kind used by building contractors in standard lengths as supplied by lumber yards. Kits also include custom-designed miter jig, cutting tools, tape measure, nails, glue, layout pencil, and a work base that doubles as a display base when a kit is completed.
The garage kit is an ideal intermediate project for students who’ve moved up from the basics of construction. Students will learn about building windows, doors, roof trusses, and more. The garage kit includes all the materials needed to build a 1":1’ scale framing model of a garage with templates, instructions, basic construction information, and basic construction mathematics. 16" x 24" footprint.
