If I could take his Knights then I would have a chance to beat him. The Doghouse was 3 feet square with a bottom, the Top was 4 feet square. We made the entrance off-center. Doing it together, My Wife made up for what I lack, and I did what was difficult for her to do. We chose 3/4 inch CDX Plywood 'cuz we thought using 1/2" plywood & itrying to put Nails in the Top piece into 1/2 inch Frame would have lots of nails sticking out of the frame sides. This phone only lets Me see four lines of text, and trying to scroll up to read earlier text sometimes has caused what I was typing to vanish. Here on Earth Computers Alway Win because THEY have Inside Information. And I have been humbled by them since I got the Commodore 64 w/ Floppy Drive and couldn't figure out how to Format a Disk. All stories about Me are true, telling it as it happened is so bad no one has to make up anything to add when talking about Me.
