This time, I've been working on the framework behind the cox's seat - the front part of the stretcher island. From what I can tell, the rear section is a removable low frame.
I started by cutting back the seat base to an angle to match the front part of the seat frame. This is at the same angle as the other seats but runs to the cabin roof. The front of the frame is just 3.2mm styrene tube with square tube towards the top in to which the stretcher frame attaches; though it is braced with 1.6mm brass rod.
The frame was then made with 3.2mm styrene, with the braces from 2mm brass. The photos show how it all goes together - the the coin is just to stop the whole assembly toppling backwards.
