What a dreadful day it has been, no wonder my Black Dog keeps nipping at my heel. Anyways, the dome has arrived for my The Hermit model. I got hold of some forstner bits so I can make a smart recess for the battery and switch. The single led is excellent and I purchased some scenic material to finish the base. Hopefully will get a chance to assemble it all tomorrow.
The nightmare of the red gnome continued and the model curled at the edges and a coupe of the support trees collapsed. The curling I am sure is due to the temp difference between the centre of the bed to the edge. I will also try and combat that this weekend also. But I did in the end get a usable model, it will need coating in epoxy as it will spend it's life outside, and epoxy coatings means I can go to town on the clean up. So, hopefully, it will come out spanking.
