Well I was messing with the Retrobox again. I put more appropriate looking dog dish hubcaps and trim rings on it, put an inside skin on it and put roof spars in plus a few other small things...

Please don't build any tongues like that. The gusset you've added in the centre of the tube is probably weakening the tongue, not strengthening it - it's pressing up and down on the middle of a flat face and it will start cracks at the tips of the gusset. If you added the gussets as pairs, one in line with each side face of the tube (ie, four in all, for two 'kinks') then you would make the joints stronger.

Still prefer the SawTooth design... but very nice designing
Cheers, Dewi

The rendering in Sketchup does seem much better than I have managed in TurboCad, so I'd be interested to try doing it this way.
