drduncan Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Dear all, Does anyone have close ups of the bollections and window surrounds for Dean period coaching stock they could share? I’m having problems working out the exact number of laters and overlaps needed for a silhouette style cutting project as the drawing I have is unclear.

It certainly contradicts the dogma that etched sides of carriages are too thin and the fixed glazing needs to be offset from the glass (yes, I recognise that there should be more thickness of the side inside the glazing). Also, soldering etched droplights to the back of etched sides is looking a bit wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or one of JCL’s threads on using a silhouette cutter. Duncan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
