Cutting the correct shingle angle on a dollhouse or miniature house roof can be a little tricky. Here's a simple technique to cut correct angles in shingles on a miniature structure everytime.
Thank you for your kind words! I flipped the fish scale shingle to have the straight edge shingle look. More rustic and less fairytale look as I have on other houses. The roof ridge has since been covered with tin to match the roof of the porch.
Hi. This was a great tip. Thank you! What glue do you use? I am doing a shingle roof for a bird house that will be outside. I'm researching the best way to glue than can handle being outside.
I have used a sliding bevel tool on projects that are larger than this one. I find it much easier using these tiny shingles to work it out quickly with this little geometry trick.
