That's a great idea Brian. Max is very accommodating and he do that.why not email Max at ZHL and ask him to match the price ?
Hey John it was worth a shot.I contacted Max- he wasn't willing to be flexible with the price.
Hi John, i bought the jig separately from the model.Come back soon.
Did you make that framing jig in post #3 (photos 1 and 3)?
Thank you very much for your reply Bryan ! I could notice the "brighter" colour on your model , and it just shows your solution worked perfectly. I will try something similar. I must also say i am relieved to know my kit came to me as it should be. I still think they could have worked this part a bit better...Hi Brito,
I did indeed have plastic parts like your photo, but I laminated over them with thin veneer timber. Your kit is the same as mine from what I can tell.
Hi Brito, why not use it as a template and carve one from cherry wood.T

Never under estimate yourselve. Nice trial case.I do like the idea, but i think my craftsmanship is not at that level, i might use Brian´s idea or paint it.
