Infinity Terrain
Overcoming some problems
So I had a couple of design issues to resolve. First being the shutters.
I cant believe how much those irritated me. Probably because I loved how they turned out but hated the execution of them.
I made an overly complex jig to help me build them. I don’t want to get into the maths I went through but the jig took about an hour of time my time to think about and plan and build.
The good thing is when the jig was done I made all 4 shutters I need in around 10 minutes which is about how long it took for me to do one wonky one.
First design issue resolved!The issue with the door windows is that they glass didn’t sit flat in the frame. There are 4 layers between the inside of the building and the outside at the window section. 1 MDF and 3 x 1mm card. Dropping in 4 small panes of Perspex was tough.
This presented an issue as I had already cut all the parts required. Not to worry MDF is cheap and I only need to replace one section.
I decided to make the glass one section instead of 4. this should make it easier to fit in and it cant all be at slightly different levels and angles.
Top is the new section bettom is the old 
new door from the front. No difference or compromise in the end effect. 
From behind showing how much simpler this is to the other post. So that’s the design issues resolved. I think I will get all 4 buildings constructed now for the main painting stage.
More to come,this may take a while unlike everything else in this project. 🙂
Glad you solved your problem, as always just an astonishing quality and level of detail on the finished pieces in the project.
