Pocket Vents

The pocket vents were built from styrene similar to how I built the coin returns. Here is the front face of the vent.


The vent openings need to have some thickness to them so I lined them with thicker strips of styrene.


To help with assembly I clamped the front face to a piece of plywood that had a curve cut in it that matches the curve of the body. This made it easier to glue on the pocket pieces


Here is a picture of the pocket glues in place.


Here is the almost complete part. There will need to be a piece across the back of the vents, but since that will be a different color I am not putting it on until I paint the parts.
