The devil is in the details. Light switches, Electrical outlets, base boards, windows,and doors.

Here is a triple light switch. I used this one for the entrance to control two outdoor lights, and the interior entrance light.

Here you can see some of the details with the walls hidden. This image displays the windows, doors, base boards, electric outlets, and light switches.Here you can see the basic exterior of the building with the doors and windows applied.

Now the Best part of this whole process! I get to see what it would be like to stand in this very building. Here is a view from the entry way, looking into the dinning room and kitchen. You can see the preliminary kitchen layout.
