A coworker came to me a week or so ago and asked if I could fabricate a dollhouse for his daughter using some left over cabinet grade prefinished plywood. I said sure and took what lumber he had and ended up using some scrap I had laying around the shop. Put this simple, straightforward dollhouse together and will be handing it over to him in another day or so when he stops by to pick it up on his way home from his current job.
I used some half inch thick ply for the inner partitions and some 1/4" oak beadboard for the back wall. He also found some 3/4" red oak shelving that he had torn down years ago and brought that to me to use for the roof of the house. Took roughly four or five hours in total to construct this. I laminated some thin oak strips to the faces of the raw plywood to dress things up and used some walnut to trim out doors inside the rooms and their thresholds. I hope she likes it!
