gap between the base and the bottom of the walls will allow the building to sit in your terra in rather than on top of it.
Trace the shapes of the short sides of the building on styrofoamto make roof supports. Cut and trim to fit inside the walls. Check
how the roof fits and fold it accordingly. The roof should
overhang the building slightly, so glue the supports a fewmillimeters in from each end of the roof.
Fit the roof onto the building. If you want the roof
