Summary

With these connectors and different lengths of cheap and common 1/2" PVC pipe, you can construct the frame of a personalized Wendy House (or playhouse) for your miniature, chronologically-impaired, humans!

The version I have built, creates a simple, 'traditional', gable-roofed, playhouse frame.

NOTE: The gable end pieces are temperamental when I try to print them. The rotation I have them on the print bed is the only rotation that it doesn't break horribly with. Otherwise, the print-head knocks the model at the top of the tear-drop holes and shifts itself across - creating a geology-like shear across the model

I have included the SketchUp model which shows the sizes of the house. Should you wish to change the lengths of the pipes to scale it up or down for your own use, this model should help if you don't want to just do the maths. (The gable is 45 degrees for ease of trigonometry.)

(And the reason there's two extra struts on the bottom of mine, is that I was intending to wear this hut as part of a costume for Halloween - Baba Yaga's Hut, complete with chicken legs and miniature witch inside. I didn't finish it in time!)
