BJOlsen Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 I have an issue. One set of the window frames completely fell apart when I was carefully trying to remove them from the board. I'm not sure what to use to make new frames and how to cut them out? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 Mine crumbled in bits, so I kept gluing them back together. If they are totally self-destructing, invest in sheets of 1/8" basswood and trace around the punch-outs to make new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Parts that are cosmetic rather than structural (like window trim) can be replicated in matte board or other types of cardboard cut to the shape and layered to achieve the 1/8" thickness. When painted, the cardboard replica looks just like its wooden cousins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
