No photos as still painting those window sections, green metal parts are done, have finished the touching up of the blackened out window glass. Takes for ever :nerd:, but loving every minute.
Hopefully might start to assemble the building over the weekend !

No photos John? Having so much fun is it that you've forgotten to charge the batteries to your camera...naughty boy. I can see the results of the party...you animal you...real nice, steel window and bars artistically distorted. I leave you alone for a while and you make these wonderful structures.

Wonder what will happen when you set upon your crayons. :smiling6::smiling5:

Cheers,

Richard I'm not allowed crayons since I drew on Miss Jones blackboard, the least said about that the better !
Thank you for the comment about the steel, getting those sections to stay in place when glued with such a small surface area was a matter of luck.

Well there would have been photos, but started to make some flanges for the pipe. As I have no circle cutter I had to cut them by hand, 8 in total, shape then glue 2 together to thicken, then stated to glue on 12 bolts.
Have 1 done and stopped for the night, no point in rushing on this stage.
