Hi.
I've had an admittedly brief search but I can't find reference to bay
windows here or any pics on brickshelf. I'm building some traditional style
buildings (English c1700-1930) at minifig scale and would like to big some
bigger and better brains for ideas.
I've done square bays (easy) and I reckon rounded ones would be fairly easy
with trans macaroni but I'd like to do angled ones.
The best I can do currently is to use some plate hinges to make a two plate
high trapezoid and then build 1x2x2 windows up on that but it doesn't look
great and needs one more stud length at the wall which gives either an odd
width window or one that cannot be centred in a wall without a lot of
jiggery pokery.
Does anyone have any links or ideas?
Psi
