The brake van roof is coming along.
I got the lasercut roofribs in birch plywood, however they for some reason cut them against the grain rather than with. So theyve been made into a plasticard sandwich to ensure they dont break.
The 4 ribs above the cabin have magnets so Ill be able to remove the roof to access the brake wheel. I hope I have enough wood left for the roof.
And slow progress cutting the floor on the D1. Im not happy with the patern on most of my wood stock for the floor, so Ill have to order more wood to replace it.
