Hi Vic. This case is made from 3mm glass plates. I used the side profiles from -> Occre <-- In the blue text the link.
Building the case for the Bluenose started --> here <--. The second picture showed the brass corner pieces, but I don't used them.
The build goes on for 'a few pages'. The finish is on page 171 post #3418.
But making the bottom with the LED's was 'a challenging activity'. You better can make the bottom like I showed you in the answer in the -> Robt. E. Lee thread. <-
Cleaning the glass plates is a bit easier than acrylic / plexiglass. But glass is much heavier. -> Here <-- I showed the calculation of the weight.
Hopefully this all will give you some information and inspiration for building yours.
Regards, Peter

Thanks Peter!

"Condizionato" ho aperto rapidamente il pacco e dentro una bella scatola ho notato che non c'era alcun danno:

Riposti in modo sicuro nella vetrina di The Lee. Per resistere alla tentazione di iniziare subito:

(La struttura del cavo nella parte superiore serve per spostare facilmente la teca sopra e fuori dal modello quando ci lavoro.)
Cordiali saluti, Peter

Beautiful kit

Beautiful kit

Thanks for your visit, Oscar. It’s indeed a nice kit. And as you can see from all the logs in the Group Build Area, you can build it in many directions. From ‘a straight build’ to ‘kit-bashing’ to ‘out of the box’.
Regards, Peter

Beautyful job Peter, incredible detail. I finished a 1:96 model of the Gertrude L. Thebaud not too long ago and had great fun doing it. I especially enjoy the research and seeing schooner take shape.

Thanks for your visit and compliments. I had noticed your finished GLT with nice sails. The little people gives a nice reference for the size of this great BN competitor.
