This is a great project. The use of a paper locomotive as a template is a good solution for a scratch build.

Wow! So clean and straight! That looks like a kit molded in white plastic. Man, I am so outclassed here!

It is to me. I can barely make a decent OOB kit and here you are doing such clean and sharp scratchbuilding. This will be amazingly masterful work when done. I see another Eagle in your future.

A long way to go, but thank you.

For some things maybe, but I have a little more control with a knife and scissors.

Looks like you are off to a good start Terry! Just remember the more precision you use on the front side, the less fit problems on the back side.

I'm not sure how I missed this but that is inspiring! Is the card model to scale or did you have to reduce/enlarge the templates?

It is 1/25 more or less. There are some irregularities from side to side. I didn't want to try scaling up or down right now.

Thanks
