- Retired builders, tradesmen, and engineers

- Anyone who misses working with their hands
How It Works
1. Mix the mortar
Add water to the included mix to create a smooth, workable mortar—just like on site, but in miniature.
2. Lay your bricks
Follow the build guide layer by layer. Place each brick, wipe away excess, and watch the walls rise.
3. Finish & display
Add the roof, doors, and details, then set your finished house on a shelf, desk, or workbench.
