[quote]ORIGINAL: Rich404 Update, Moving right along. The molding is ready for paint which will happen when it is not raining. [:o] I am off to the next segment. I am now taking measurements of all the windows and writing down the measurements and fine tuning each window. Next, is to cut out each window from thin crystal clear plexi, fit in each window & set aside. Then, the frames will be made up and be installed. The frames are going to be made from a thin durable plastic and painted with the cabins. When the window frames are made, the frames for the 7 louvers will also be made up & installed. I am hoping to have it all done within the next week. The ''glass'' will be installed after the cabins and frames are painted. -Rich.
