The trick

Two roof squares lean up to meet at the ridge, and one triangle drops into the gap at the back to close the peak. The triangle is what stops the two roof panels from splaying apart.

What you will need

  • 11 square tiles
  • 1 triangle tiles

Step by step

  1. 1. Lay the floor

    Put two squares flat, one behind the other. This is a garage you drive into end-on.

  2. 2. Stand the side and back walls

    Stand two squares up each long side, then one more across the back. Leave the front end open.

  3. 3. Lean the roof up to a ridge

    Lean two squares up from each side wall so they meet in a line down the top.

  4. 4. Fill the back peak

    Drop one triangle into the triangle-shaped gap at the back, under the ridge.
