The designer attempts to make not only the corner timbers marry up  but also the corner strapping where fitted too. When making my own design of wagons via the Silhouette cutter I always make the iron work as 10 thou overlays. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I digress, having got as far as fitting the first of the outer Veranda partitions at first try there was a gap of around half a mil or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"732\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0005-732x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3964\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0005.jpg 732w, http:\/\/www.railway-models-and-art.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_0005-214x300.jpg 214w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 732px) 100vw, 732px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That shown above is the other end which is still to fettle.
