The shaker house is 10’ wide and 26’ long. The front wall of the
tower is 10’ x 22’ and the rear wall is 10’ x 18’. The rear wall is
attached at the top. The side walls are 12’ wide with one side
22’ and the other 18’ for the roof angle.
The sloped portion of the building is connected 14’ from the
floor on the 18’ side. All roofs have Wild West Models corru-
gated siding strips attached to the eaves to seal the building.

will vary from model to model, due to differences in scenery
