CryhavocMike that sounds a nice idea, thanks for commenting 😀

OverSiteSurveys Hi there, thank you for your kind words 😀 I am sure that you could use acrylic packaging, and what a good idea, as long as its clear and good enough quality, would certainly be good to try! Thanks again 😀

You should be able to use a PET HDPE bottle from Coke or Pepsi or any PET HDPE bottle for windows generally speaking it will have to be heated around 250 to 300 degrees F to prevent pearlization at the edges where it's being stretched. It helps if you would heat up your pad first then heat the plastic this will reduce shrinkage and pearlization and other defects and be sure to hold the pad in place until the plastic has cooled completely; this will prevent having to reheat it again.

It was something I recycled from food packaging

@@MarkRobinson555 thanks. So you don't know the exact type of plastic? Looks really clear and I'm struggling to find something similar. Thx

You can use acetate sheet, the type they use on the cover of spiral bound documents

On the fuselage I used PVA, white wood glue. The plastic for the windows was the type of plastic container that you get food in. I recycled it! Hahaha

@@MarkRobinson555 smart guy 😃😃😃

What’s the average time for a glued joint to stick properly ?

With PVA I would leave it overnight
