Default RE: Redesign and reconstruction of the Oldest Taurus on Earth

Madam Hanna waxwork figure theatre.

A post to show one of the detailed pictures to make the final check of the plug, Have attention for the blue dashes, equal of length in all positions.
Location of the camera related to the old Simla and plug are the same so we can compare the contours when the objects on the photographs are equal of dimensions. That I do by adjusting the dimensions of the photogrpahs.

We make these of all original photographs weI have.
In this period it looks like Hanna and I are employees of a Tussaud waxwork figure theatre instead of modelers and I think that can be interesting to show.

We have daylight now so visible are a lot more details, only the laser beam to align the tripod asks some more observation accuracy.
Still to do the contour of the seam between canopy and turtle deck.

For that I copy the calculated turtle deck seam curvature on the side surface of the plug by drawing a line on equal distance of the top surface. After that making a top view picture with same POV as the original top view picture. The oval (line) must be visible on the photograph and have the same shape as the contour of the original canopy. (another nice example of coal English!)

Oh and were is Hanna? Busy with the mouse.

More to come in this threatre.
