Tools for cutting the roofing off an angled length of sheet metal.
I cut the lengths off at 30cm but this would depend on the size of the brick used.
File off the sharp fresh cut edges.
While both sections are held together in a vice, drill through both sections in two places, then secure with rivets.
Spray paint the the roof silver, or other colour of your choice.
First two houses in place.
Play Time
Houses now occupied.  I was told that the fairies don't need cars though as they fly.
