The festive season has been a bit of a washout for modelling, but on the last day of the year I found half an hour to have a go at making the basic outline of the corridor end of Gwyrfai
It’s a fabricated piece and the first job is to assemble the pieces I will need, including the solid lower piece and the top piece shaped to the roof profile.
A really good tip is to use a sheet of glass as your surface and use a metal ruler as a guide to make sure your joints are square and straight.
Also make sure you place only the tiniest drop of solvent on the joint - capillary action will do the rest for you.
As well as the ruler I like to use a couple of very precisely measured off cuts as guides to make sure the windows either side a precisely the same width.
Finally, chop the pillars to the exact height you require and glue the top piece in place.
