good evening.
I guess the title says is all. I am happily building a MMP Class 08 kit and have been running into a problem with the cabin roof.
I will have to remake that from a plain brass sheet, but it requires two crisp folds with a 130° angle and first trials resulted in a pretty ugly radius. I assume that the only proper way to do it is to prepare some kind of groove where the etch line would be. But I have no idea how to do that.
How are you scratch builders solving that problem? Any input is highly appreciated.
