Hello All

I have been putting together A cessna 182 Skylane, 100" span, I have got carried away with scale details and have now bought some navigation and landing lights to go in her, the leading edge landing lights I have been lucky to find some holders and lenses, which will be mounted in a tray set into the wing and covered with acetate.

Now the question is, what to do with the wing tips?
I think I want to cut into the leading edge of the tip, taking out a 90degree corner setting the lights into this area, what I would like to know is how do you make a clear cover shaped to this?
For the landing lights in the leading edge of the wing it will be simple to fold acetate to the shape of the leading edge, but the wing tip is a 90 degree corner.
Also I would like to make thimble or cap shape covers for the nav lights in the wing tips.

1. Can all this be done using clear and coloured acetate?

2. If so how do I mould/shape it?

3. Are there different grades or thickness that I need to find that will allow shaping/moulding without damage?

I Hope this request is clear and that someone would take a mo to share their knowledge on this one

Kind Regards Barry
