A steck castle project on hold....

[Giorginetto]

In my Kiungs quarter's which is very similar to Sir Wolf's  i had 3 levels of 6 rooms each but with walls inbetween ( using up lots of my doors !!!) , i will be replacing many of these with double wooden open frames  and i think either way the inbetween support makes the structure more strong ( due to torsional rigidity as civil engineers woudl call it i think ) . I attempted making a room without any in between support , found it not as stable as the prev mentioned design .

No, its not easy to make a structure stable if you do not have a support of some kind...The wals and doors are fine but they take up a lot of functional space...just placing these wooden frames makes lot more space to use and move the klickies....

You are a better builder than me Sir Wolf ! I tried building my steck kings quartrs as you rightfully said without in between support and it collapsed so many times !!! I have bought additional open double wooden frames and i agre with you having walls with doors is a waste of space ( and doors ...) . Look forward to see you designs Sir !

I have managed to put my Steck fever in check for now...
Trying to focus more on buying klickies now, not castles.

I tried buying a 3666 from ebay Germany,
But the buyer said the shipping would be 50 eros!
That was almost as much as he was selling the castle for!
Does it really cost that much to ship to America?

And I tried buying another item, just a tent, and the shipping was still 50 eros!
Doesnt the weight of the package determine the shipping?

It does seem a lot!!! I usually pay around 20 euros.... a 3666 weights 5 kilos, so that is from germany to greece 23 euros, two 3666 castles weight ten...shiping was actually 37 euros but, as i am a good customer...the seller shipped them for 17.5
I'll check prices with the hellenic postal services....I've never sold anything so i do not know the shipng costs from greece to anywhere else...
