Nonneminstre Coles Crane glazing.

Taking a break from the Steelman Royale I glazed the cab of my crane. I used 1mm perspex? laboriously filed to shape. I did scrap a few bits...

The glazing for the cab side (the door and the small windows either side) was prepared before the body was glued together so I could lay the side on a piece of glazing and scribe around the opening, before cutting and shaping the material and storing the finished pieces in a safe place. This was definitely a good move...

Back to the Steelman Royale...

Hi James.

Fox transfers for the stripes, sheet F4303/2. I used 4 pieces per end, main piece, top and sides. Buffer blocks were added after. The beams were sprayed with gloss enamal varnish before the transfers were added to prepare the surface then the transfers were sealed with a couple of coats of enamal matt varnish.
