Scratchbuilding windows
I scratch build model RR structures in paper and card. Someone on another forum asked me how I make windows on paper models. I drew up an instruction sheet, and I'm sharing it here in case there are any neophyte scratchbuilders on this forum.

For anyone interested in building windows with 'glass' I highly reccommend the 'sticky label method' perfected by this railway modeller, Michael: Scratch building cheap and easy window frames - the sticky label technique for model window frames - YouTube
