Step 14: Structurally Complete!

The stove is now finished, although the door falls open because it doesn't have any springs to hold it up.

We ended up wrapping the entire stove in kraft paper tape because it looked better that way. While I kind of dig the utilitarian look, I think play value for my kids probably would have been enhanced if I'd gotten some bright-colored contact paper from the variety store and covered it in that instead.

You can hide a lot of goofs this way.
