Interior Modifications
The seating unit needed extending by 9mm so the front and rear sections were chopped and repositioned on plasticard stretchers.
The entrance now matches the doorway of the RU with steps extended to suit.
The joints were stuck down with Devcon (as the seat unit material does not like superglue), and the joins strengthened with Milliput which is currently in the drying phase. Hence the rough appearance!
Also in the picture is the brass centre roof panel which will form the key strengthening structure onto which the curved sides will bond. The curve on this piece was achieved by a little gentle persuasion and a wooden rolling pin.
