Well it's time for the weekly update although I felt like I was in one of those "Tune in next week" to see if I escaped type trap! It gets cold in my basement and I may not get to work on the project as much as I have been in fact I may catch a cold from this weeks update but I hope not!
Enough of my whining on to the update.
Here you see the process I used to turn a piece of "I" Beam into a hand hold for the railings.
First cut to size stip off the two protruding pieces I don't need file and notch then glue in place.
I only have to make about 70 of these! 40 for the inner railings 20 for the top and 20 for the bottom.
Then about 30 more for the outer railings top and bottom.
But the results are worth it as shown in the next photos.
Here we see my progress on the left side panel on the second catwalk.
This has been a real challenge to make and I still am not sure how I will make the knife switches for this panel.
But I have an idea that might work.
Nothing has been glued down yet so some items may not be straight
I made the dial faces in Microsoft paint and attached them to styrene.
That's all for this week!
