So I made some major cutting errors, and the thighs didnt fit right. So not wanting to have huge shims everywhere, I decided to take on some reshaping the plastic itself. so over about 8 hours I have made a little progress.
Starting gap. Didnt like it, and the back was trimmend already so i moved to the front.
So. I used a seam iron and started taking the ridge out of the plastic so i would have more curve than ridge in the plastic itself then started to rebuild the ridge with scrap plastic, zap-a-gap, silicone caulk, and fiberglass jelly.
Wait for everything to set up then start sanding, and sanding and sanding..
After more sanding, I have managed to get the cover strip dow to 22mm. still a little rough but much closer to what I wanted.
getting ready to clean it up a little more and finish the other thigh.. Be gentile. I made some stupid mistakes up to this point but it seems to fit now. So back to the build.
Thanks
Sam
