At the beginning of the week I was still struggling to finish chroming the droplight.  There was a problem with sharp edges on the verticals which I solved by filling the gaps with dumdum putty so this droplight is ready for fitting in the window pan. In preparation for a trip to Evans Trim on Wednesday, I  dismantled the drivers seat and removed one seat back from its frame.  Delivered the back and cushion of the driver’s seat to Evans and had a useful discussion about recovering the other seats.  Assembled the next window pan and fitted it to the bus after a bit of adjustment to the protruding screws.  I started on the next two, gluing the crossbars to the lower panes to form the fixed lights then gluing them into the verticals.  The last two droplights need to be assembled and chromed next.
