Hi Gang,
Time for an early Monday morning update! Lots of work with the laser cutter this weekend... Enjoy!
Created a bunch of new greeblies
So what are all these things?
Let's get moving! Added filler
Adhered the top plate - round knob to be added later
Trimmed top plate to match angle
Time to sand smooth
After filler and more sanding I added some paint!
Drilled a hole trough the top
Counter sunk hole for the nut
Added the knob and then mounted into place along with the small silver screen just above
During all of this I adhered a lot of little pieces together
Added filler... as always
From this point its going to get a bit random but I'll try to explain...
Time to make three of these of oddly shaped greeblies
Tops
Pressure Switch greeblie
Top
Foot Well Greeblie
New Access Panel pieces
Whew... That's a LOT of sanding
I laser cut new screens
Added filler to the three upper panel greeblies
Adding some visual detail to the foot well greeblie base
Filler Sanding Filler Sanding Filler Sanding...
More visual detail
Foot Well Greeblie Panel with Details
Pressure Switch greeblie
New grab handles
FINALLY!!! We added some color!
Foot Well Base
Another upper panel greeblie
LOTS of primer filler - 5 coats to fill in / cover imperfections
Black
In the laser cutter to dry
Cut some bolts
Grabbed some adhesive
Adhered the bolts through the bottom of the foot well greeblies for mounting
Pressure plate - found a few little errors
SILVER!
Time to adhere the foot well panel together
SNAP... ugh
Foot well greeblie in basic position... the question is what color do I paint the main panel? Black like the rubber floor matting or the light grey and add some pin strips?
Still need to finish the greeblies and add some slight weathering - not sure about the silver. Maybe a grey?
With single screen
Double Screen?
Whew... The Volvo panels are going to be addressed VERY soon. Still working a few issues (as always) More to Follow!
