jhb171achill Posted August 11 Posted August 11 That cabin was a serious height, like the old one at Portarlington. Waterford likewise; was up all three back in the day, gingerly, as I do NOT have a good head for heights! 1 Quote
Patrick Davey Posted August 12 Posted August 12 An impressively precise approach to the glazing, how do you place the masking tape pieces with such precision Darius? This is a cracking build! 1 1 Quote

This is a cracking build! Hi Patrick, I stick a large piece of tape on the clear sheet and cut the glazing bars out with a sharp knife, leaving the tape masks over each pane behind.

Cheers Darius Hi @Darius43. I use the same method for glazing, but use perspex with "tape" already covering the surface. Cut and paint then. Have to hand it to you though, I am nowhere as precise as you. Need a sharper knife methinks (and a lot more patience). Yours look great. 1 Quote
David Holman Posted Thursday at 06:41 Posted Thursday at 06:41 Self adhesive address labels do the same thing, though require patience to cut out, leaving the glazing bars behind. Quote
