Thanks Tamyra,
I really wanted to use those levers. I almost used blue poster tack, but
Incorprating other non lego items is a slippery slope, and I'm starting to
become one of those miserable "purists"! :-) I decided not to use stairs
since I didn't want to take up floor space, so everyone uses ladders to get
to their appointments (how their luggage gets up there we'll always have to
wonder, as well as how everyone deals with the privacy issue on the 2nd
floor!) Thanks again for the tips, they got me started in the right
direction. Jon
