This is my first kit.I am building the Marquam Hill Mansion with no problems until now...The tower! I meticulously cut all the molding pieces, glued the pieces into the columns. somehow I am about 3/4" off from it fitting around the hexagon floor properly. Re-checked the directions, pieces and measurements for the 50th time ughhhh! Everything is perfect. Can't figure it out Ughhh! Not sure if anyone here can help, I figure it's worth a shot. Thanks in advance

OK, I' just starting off on my McKinley and I'm already stuck. I've got my tower walls liberated from their sheets, as well as the oval trim pieces and the window plastic. But there's nothing in the directions that says how to put them together. This may be pretty basic but does the plastic go on the interior side of the wall or between the wall and the exterior trim piece? And is there an interior trim piece too? I've read through the McKinley construction blog but it doesn't really show this. I'm also wondering about sealing the edges of the trim pieces. Even after sanding, these edges aren't really smooth due to the laminated nature of the wood. What do people do with this? Wood sealer? Spackle? Just ignore it and paint over it? Any assistance would be most appreciated. And finally, just what architectural style is the McKinley? I'm guessing American Queen Anne.
