A daily updated blog typed by someone with painty hands, oil under his fingernails and the smell of solder in his nostrils who likes making all sort of models and miniatures. And fixing things.

Cottage now ready for occupancy
The last job on the cottage was to fit the windows. These are cast in clear resin, the frames need painting and then fitting to the model.
A coarse file is required to make them fit in the holes in the walls. Several mm of material needs to come off the top and sides, but the result is a good, snug, fit. A little epoxy resin run in between the frame and wall from behind finishes the job - these things aren't coming out in a hurry!
End rest - a really nice looking model building. Really chuffed with this one.
