Yep, that’s really what this kit is called. I’m not sure a porch can truly have infinite possibilities, especially when it’s made out of MDF, which as I’m discovering is infinitely (heh) more difficult to bash than a plywood kit. But I’m getting ahead of myself…

I had a good time landscaping the Fairfield and the puzzle house and wanted to do another half scale landscape project that wouldn’t involve building an entire house first. Enter the Infinite Possibilities Porch, a newish offering from Miniatures.com. Its rectangular shape makes it perfect to display in a corner, and I got the idea to turn the finished porch into a bookend.
This is my first time building with MDF, and my assessment so far is that I don’t really like it. For one thing, masking tape won’t stick to it, which makes dry fitting the pieces or even holding them together while they’re gluing rather difficult. Also, to enlarge the holes to fit the windows and door I wanted to use, Geoff had to pitch in with a power saw (and much swearing).
Here it is with the doors and windows in. The main walls and floor are glued together but the porch and stairs are just for placement.
