Sometimes You Bite the Bear and Get away With It
The side crenellations have got to fit within close tolerances. I had only a few millimeters of leeway in seven inches to get these nine dentations to fit evenly without more major adjustments.
Naturally I procrastinated attempting to build these bulwarks until today (and last evening) but low they came out better than I expected with a tolerance of micromillimeters (otherwise known as 64ths of an inch)
(I dearly love the Imperial system. I can't wait until the rest of the World adopts it.)
So here we have the crenellations in place and ready for gluing...
But before I do that I need to complete the main arm cutouts in the deck which I presume are for servicing and retracting the shoulder armament.
Gaad! Did I stumble into the purpose of these cutouts or What?
Purely by accident I assure you. Serendipity rears its ugly head once again.
