Getting Lippy

A start's been made on adding some of the detail to the hoppers, begining with the pronounced angled lip at the top.



The top edge of the hoppers were filed down at a 45 degree angle and 15" x 60" strips were attached.

I've never been too hot on geometry so it took a number of attempts to get the angles right at the corners so they joined without a gap. I have the same problem when trying to make hipped roofs on buildings.
