What are you talking about the Stained Glass stuff? I'm lost. :idonno
 
well if you're lost that makes two of us but the stained glass stuff I was talking about he is probably back a couple of pages the top of the passenger car there's some little windows that have stained glass in them ..... :eek:ldguy

So I painted the inside of the roof ..... I must sand the slotted piece of wood and cut and place each window in the exact spot or it may look funny ..... I need to make a cutting and alignment Jig ..... before I proceed ..... :eek:ldguy

MP These little green areas with the design will be cut to go centered in the top windows I have to be cut and placed in the top of the car ...... these windows are called clerestory windows ....... because they just let filtered light ...... like these .....
