The last few days have been taken up with manufacturing the NS corner piece for the rear window. This took some time as it is a complex shape that tapers in two directions and has a lip that provides location for the glass. I made this in two pieces, the actual corner, made by laminating blocks of Iroko together and the lip as a plate that glues onto the corner, which I made out of some Ash left over from the boot floor boards. The parts were completed yesterday and a trial fit achieved, which revealed more sanding was required to get the right shape and a good fit for the lip piece.
Today I fitted the solid corner piece and the sill I made previously; these all had to be fitted at the same time so they would line up correctly. Then I glued on the lip piece. This now needs to be profile sanded to match the rest of the interior woodwork before it can be painted and the glass re fitted. I also pinned some of the outer panelwork to the sill, last thing.
