The back (North) wall of the first set is laid flat. 

The North wall is cut in half. The right side will be used with the West wall set. The left side will be stored and used with the East wall set.

A new portion of wall is cut to size and positioned next to the existing segment of the West wall created for the first set. On the right you can see the cut half of the original North wall.

Plaster detail is added to the new segment of the West wall. This picture also shows a better view of the North wall half of the first set.

The new wall segment is painted to match the rest of the room.

Pipe and door frame details are added to help bring the space to life.

Lights are positioned as the set nears completion. On the right, just behind the cabinet prop, a 2X2 was dressed and placed over the seem between the two walls.

A good example of the contrast in size between
the two main characters.
