Below is the building of the shed, It was the first thing i starting to make for the set. I remember how it felt good to finally get started on the build after months of designing and planning. I used balsa wood for the shed and the process went very well other than running out of wood and being delayed for a while until i got more.
For the door, i bought doll house hinges which were 1:12 scale and used a thick bit of balsa wood for the door. The little screws which came with the hinges weren't very good, some not even fitting in the hinge's holes so i improvised using pins as i knew they would be painted anyway. The swing of the door was stiff but that was perfect as the door was going to have to open during filming and that allowed me to control the movement easily. For the window i just used a clear plastic which i cut out then scratched up a bit to age it.
