Conservatory finished

It's finished!

All the trim is on, and I've touched up the paint.  Before I did the final paint job, I strengthened the join where the roof meets the walls by using a trick from my modeller DH and DS, called pinning.

I drilled a hole through the roof beam down into the wall, using a fine micro drill.

Then I cut a straight sewing pin using wirecutters.

Then I applied the sewing pin into the hole, with a dab of superglue, and pushed the pin down flush with the surface.  A bit of paint and it is all hidden.

I'd painted the Houseworks french doors earlier, but it comes with a do-it-yourself grill consisting of pieces of wood that you have to cut to size.  As usual I spent just as long trying to get glue off of the glass as I did trying to get the slats to stick.  Luckily I had a pack of 1/24th scale doorknobs so once I'd glued those on, I went ahead and glued the door in.  It projects on the inside as it is thicker than the wall, but I think it will look ok once I have a door frame around it. Looking at these photos, I can see there is a slight gap at the bottom of the door, so I will glue some trim along there.  Curse these high-res photos, things always look much worse than in real life, every little flaw is magnified on the screen.
