I have seen trailers around here, one rocket themed, one with purple wood, and others that belong behind glass, with armed guards (24/7) in the Smithsonian, yea there that good. Mine will be rough around the edges, cause I built it. I am shooting for unique but usable. The rocket themed trailer I would be to afraid to scratch it, to ever think about using it.
Today I glassed the roof. The idea to scrape the green resin worked very nicely, thanks Steve.

Need to put glass on two pieces of the nose, sand, sand, and when I am done, sand some more.

Excellent, del. But do tell us - we're dying to know - if you put the door back in the hole, is it still the same curvature as the body?

Thanks to all for the compliments. Uncle Mike last spring when I cut out the wall, I drew out the door (should have drawn it on both sides), and framed it then.

Now I just cut it out with a jigsaw.
