cog Posted February 16, 2013 #3 Posted February 16, 2013 It truely is a lovely build.

penichette Posted February 17, 2013 Author #5 Posted February 17, 2013 Next step is the sliding roof. The problem is to find the right glue (lexan with wood). Glue for plastic kits went well. Nico avsjerome2003 1 Quote
penichette Posted February 23, 2013 Author #6 Posted February 23, 2013 It's time for the windows. I beginn with the small windows in the front of tha cabine. I take rails of trains miniatures (Märklin) to do the frame of the window. To get a perfect fit for the window, I build them first in wood. And finally with Lexan. Nico avsjerome2003 1 Quote
penichette Posted March 1, 2013 Author #7 Posted March 1, 2013 Next are the windows on the side. Here I can glue the Lexan between the mahogany walls. All the windows are in place. Nico avsjerome2003 1 Quote

cog Posted March 26, 2013 #30 Posted March 26, 2013 She looks great. Wonderful work on the window and the frame. You are to right not making a complete roof. The material for model boats seems never to be thin enough. What did you use for the windscreen/window? Quote Carl "Desperate affairs require desperate measures."
