I finished building the 4756 Shrieking Shack last night and I noticed that the
little Honeyduke's Candy shop seems rather incomplete as the instructions show.
I like the assorment of parts you get, but the underside of the small building
are kind of loosely connected.  Not much overlap to hold it together when picked
up.  It does swing open on a double hinge construction, allowing you to close
the shop into a more square pattern.  This leaves a very large gap in the roof,
a door on one side and an open wall/door on the other.  The dimensions when
closed allow you to place the smaller transformation chamber on top.  Like a
second floor, it fits in perfectly.  You can lock it in place more securely by
placing a single 1x1 round (plenty of extras in the Potter sets) at each corner
where the transformation chamber comes to rest on top of Honeyduke's.  In doing
this, it balances out the taller Shack and blends quite well in color and
design.  Seems most Potter sets get better when stacked.

I'll probably leave these assembled until the wife notices them in the china
cabinet.
:o)
