      I had the greenhouse from my daughter for Christmas, great kit but why they couldn't have put the bits for each item in the same bag goodness knows. Decanted the enclosed glue into a smaller dropper bottle, so applying it is a lot easier.

        Fully agree Steve. So many plastic bags and in this one no glue !
        The quality is superb, couldn't fault it, even the paper press out sections are good. Instead of filing the tabs I now just cut the front edge back with a sharp scalpel.The corresponding slots have round ends , so this way is quicker and less stressful to the edge of the tap if filed.

          Then again, maybe this time I can sit closer to the front and not worry so much about an unobstructed escape path...
          Ron, definitely no fire in this , so you can asit as near as you want:nerd:

                          The white slotted tool is for twisting the plant into a circle so it fits into the wooden tower, then the front was glued in.

                          More tomorrow, thanks for the comments and for looking in.
