Thommo Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 (edited) A woman I work with got this kit for $2 at an Op Shop, so I said I'd make it up for her 4yo son. Decided I'd experiment with making it into a little display case. Got the local Menshed to do me up a base, got some old perspex from a little display cabinet I built years ago, built a grass-flocking machine to practice applying grass, bought a perspex scoring tool and learned how to break perspex neatly (lots of attempts - even 3mm needs deep scoring to break well). Pretty basic, but came out OK though I'm not really happy with the perspex case which is a bit scrappy (not that a 4yo will care). Next time I'll buy some new and thinner (2mm not 3mm) and be a bit more careful with cutting and handling as it is very easy to scratch. All a bit of a practice run for my Fouga Magister display. .
