The entire model is slot and tab assembly from 2 lazer cut metal sheets about 6" X 6". Some of the smaller parts ( rad cap and cowl lamps) are almost too tiny for my eyes and sausage fingers. While certain parts are etched with different patterns a lot is left shiny. Great tree ornaments or a nice addition to your tinplate layout. Search "Metal Works Lazer Cut" for their complete line. I have no affiliation with the product..

That almost looks too nice to paint, and definitely too nice to distress! How does it assemble? Solder?

Plate RailHere's an interesting little lazer cut metal kit of a 1908 model T. Seems to be almost O scale. Painted and distressed it should look really convincing. Already invested 3 hours assembling it.
That's very nice.
Leave it as is looks great Bruce

About the only section of the Chesterfield & Lazyboy that's semi finished. Do I tidy things up or just call it decorated for Halloween?
