After some hard work, the 5 doors are due today are with the first layer of paint and the locks and latches are still provisional for that reason it will be set aside for the final painting can be seen as they were out and inside, the windows are functional, up and down, the next job will be the construction of the lamp, as it will light the work it will take to build is of course much higher, but it is a challenge that I like to do and the satisfaction of performing a carriage never before built by me, some pictures of the finished doors, I hope you enjoy and appreciate, José greetings.

Today I finished the locks, safe locks, and started the construction of metal hoops for the safe door, this frame is made in cove so I had to invent a template to do this, it is a homemade object but it works, as they know this area we must often build our own tools to adapt to our needs, closely'll show these tools also made by me. can see the key size of safe doors, paraterem an idea of the dimensions, it measures 14mm by 6mm, can see the comparison with the coin image, the next steps will be the construction of the door frame remaining to give the first layer primary, to protect the metal from oxidation. some more pictures of the progress of malaposta.espero the coach you like to see.

Today I'll show you how I do the hinges and the locks on the side doors front and rear door, left to do the locks on the vault doors, as these are internal locks come later. as you can see the door has a security latch at the bottom of the doors, this was intended to prevent the doors opened during the trip, some parts of the fasteners are welded silver other tin, after all finished take a layer of primary and then are painted black.

It is time to test the entire carriage body structure, as it turns out everything is still fixed provisionally with springs in order to make some adjustments on doors and other parts, the base of the front panel is not yet complete, as there are some adjustments to do because of the brake, which runs along the front pillar of the left side of the door is then placing the hinges on the doors and their closures, a few more pictures of the construction progress of the carriage of Malaposta.

As you can see from the images, the exterior of the box is almost complete, the side sections of the front and rear, are made separately, as can be seen, for the sake of facilitating the work and a better perfection in finish and better clarity in prominors, also gave a primer paint on the access door on the back, to test the colors and see how they fit in together, I hope you enjoy watching this progress, thanks for visiting my blog.
