Andy Harman #131442 I never really thought about just filling in the grooves. I still can't believe anyone still uses Squadron. I think I'm going to pull out the kit and start troweling some Cypox on the sides.

It seemed to work fairly nicely. I suppose that you could also contact AMB to see if they would cut plywood sides for you... Regards Bruce Smith Auburn, AL From: STMFC@...

Subject: RE: [STMFC] e bay chuckle Andy the sides in the AMB kit may not be reversible, depending upon window placement, etc. It they are exact duplicates you could swap the two sides and have the smooth side out. But more they are not exact duplicates, in which case you would be better off using the sides as patterns to cut smooth sides out of styrene. Then you have the task of attaching styrene to wood.
