Ok ppl, here are some good ideas of what to build castles out of... 1st oatmeal comes in some nice sized cylinders for the corner towers, or coffee cans also do the job well... For smaller towers try using canned goods cans, toilet paper/paper towell rolls, pop cans, juice cans, packaged salt that comes in the smallcylinders, etc. You can also buy foam cylinders at your local craft store. For the walls I highly disregard using card board because it is not easy to work with. I suggest buying a few sheets of foam-like material. It is easy to cut with an exacto knife adn looks good. You can get both of these at your local craft store. Now this can get pretty expensive so try using as much stuff that u can find around your house. How do i know all this? Well because I'm building a castle right now for a lame school report. If you need any more tips or suggestions E-Mail me at GTStudd06@aol. .com. Have fun building!  |

Oh, and a few more things I forgot to add... I suggest building this on a thin piece of plyboard, about 1/4 - 1/2in. in thickness... Now what should you use to hold it all together? I say tacky glue and a hot glue gun are the way to go. Happy building! |
