And doing the same thing on the other slab. And press that in. Being careful to line it up nicely on the outside. And we're going to fix the outside of these walls later, when we stand this face up, so it does not have to be perfect yet. And now finally this last piece will go on top of that wall and beside this wall, so we want to score this part and this part. And do the slip and score it again. And then we want to score here and here. Get that nice and goopy without pulling the wall off of the side there. And now we're going to lay this piece on top. You want to go ahead and get it stuck as much as you can to this side, so that it won't fall down. And then press it onto here. And once we've done that, we can attach the base and stand this up."
