Hi All, had fun with this piece of PE. Bending it into shape and glueing it without if springing apart. All it needs now are the uprights around the inside.

Cheers guys.
I have made a few more parts today. With more to come later. Just like to add the plastic molded parts are rubbish. The moulds are not worth the plastic. Some plastic parts could have been done in pe and would have made it better....
Here are the latest test fitted parts.
