Today iv finally got walls and floor put together.have used 1 and 2 mm styrene rod for frames. Iv used  1mm styrene sheet for the floor.. i need to build a roof and do glazing.wood floor and interior.bit of filling needs doing on frames before priming and paint.this my first attempt using styrene to build anything iv also been hampered that iv got cataracts and I'm pretty much blind in my right eye so depth perception is a bit askew.

The cabin is 50mm wide and 240mm in length.the base is 40 mm wide 220 mm long and 50 mm tall.

Stairs are also needed so if cant buy something suitable ill try make my own.

I fount that using cellulose thinners works great as an adhesive as seen it used on youtube.

Been awhile but iv finally got stairs made .alot of watching YouTube and a lot of trial and error but for first time having a go I'm well pleased.

Stairs primed for paint and outside of cabin done too.need to redo the base as not happy with the brick paper how I covered it.

And before anyone comments yes that is a class 33 in irish rail livery.bought from you know who last year out in bray.
