    After spending 30 minutes trying to figure out the correct angles to use I decided to come to RUclips for some help. My only question now is if my base is half the length do I need to use a different angle*? I have never made anything that needed angles cut. Your video is so helpful and the best one I found. Thank you so much.

    • @LifeofBliss
      @LifeofBliss  4 года назад

      Glad it helped! You won't need a different angle for the shorter base unless you want steeper or flatter mountains. If not, just use the angle I did

    Question: I used the same wood glue as you and sanded prior to applying the stain...the areas that have wood glue will not stain (areas along the seams and a couple spots where I wiped away the excess glue). What am I doing wrong?

    • @LifeofBliss
      @LifeofBliss  4 года назад

      Wood glue really doesn't accept stain well. I'd sand it a little more and then maybe cover those areas with a little wood filler maybe?

    Just here to say a huge thankyou for this video - it was really easy to follow along and the construction method suited the tools I had available just perfectly. My saw couldn't fit the 1x4 vertically, but it did have an adjusted to 'lean' over 30 degrees, which worked out great. I added a shelf in the central mountain, so be able to add more items.
    I used 1x6 for the base, and set it to be +4 inches longer on each end, to provide a wider, broader shelf at the bottom. I used pre-conditioned for the staining, which I think is well worth it. I uploaded a quick video on mine after staining here - ruclips.net/video/hkJ5LfNArGQ/видео.html
    I decided to not doing the snow caps now, but will make a set of 3-sided snow caps out of thin ply, that can be removable, to change according to the seasons.
