Now to a part of the build I was rather worried about.
Part C2 is the frame for the windscreen. The lower half is clear part H8.
The bottom of the frame was broken although the missing section, about 1cm long, was in the bag. I tried to glue the missing section in place - hopeless!!
It just wasn't straight. So I decided to replace the whole of the bottom frame.
I built a jig from scrap wood and cut out the bottom frame.
I then dry fitted the clear part H8 to ensure the frame was the right size. I glued two small pieces of wood to the sides to keep everything in place.
I cut a piece of rod and cut out the two notches which locate H8.
Glued it in place.
Removed the frame from the jig and took out H8
Strengthened the joins with CA and hopefully it will work.
I'm not a scratch builder like Mike, Jakko et al but I must confess to being quite pleased
