With some very careful soldering I managed to get the hinge to work. Door frame still needs to be completed, it must also be made slightly narrower as I could only guess the size till I had the hinge working. I plan to have a rod going through the baseboard and then to operate the doors via servo's.

Hi all,
a bit of progress to report on the roundhouse before I get some more items next week for the Steam loco project. I want the doors on the roundhouse to be functional, so I've been playing with different ideas in my head for a while now. I'm busy with the first one. As it's getting more and more difficult to get the brass profiles that I want, I decided to have a try with old rail. First door taking shape.

Hi all,
a bit of progress on the roundhouse. I've now glued the first two wall sections together as seen in the first photo. Second photo shows the next wall section being glued.

I now file the window openings slightly bigger than the window and make a window frame from 2.5 x 2.5 polystyrene angle profiles. These are glued to the outside wall as seen in this photo.
