Steps 9-15! ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes. Jude took a break from this construction. This sort of thing wasn’t what he was best at but he was pretty happy about his work so far. He watched Brandon give a shot at the Hammer Spell, itching to jump in and assist. But his young friend seemed quite determined {even if an actual hammer was used for a bit}. In the end, Brandon was successful though and Jude, of course, was super happy about this fact. “Look at you go! Not bad, Brandon!’’
So…
Did he have the planks attached in the right manner? A quick scan of his handiwork thus far confirmed this. Plus, there were two wooden planks on each side sticking out as Carton had demonstrated earlier. With the nailed wood facing upwards, the tape was used to measure seven inches on both sides. The piece was lined up as neatly and orderly as he could possibly get it to be. Eh… it seemed okay from his point of view. If this wasn’t the case… well… that was a problem for later. With magic, more hammering ensued so that the end of the right plank to the other leg. That step was repeated for the left.
That was one handsome base!
But no more admiring because it needed to be flipped. This was easily done. The larger plank… where wa- there it was! Jude grabbed it to settle it snuggly on to base. The check with the tape told him that there was an inch overhang indeed but this was only after there was some fidgeting done to get the plank in its proper place. Magic was used to drive the nails in as instructed. With that, the mini construction project was over. |
