I've also been messing about with some slightly more detailed work for the interior Allegro/Marina door pulls I'm using.
The pulls themselves are nice chromed pieces but the original surrounds were black plastic which I'm not fond of so I started making templates for new steel replacements.
Once I'd settled on the new dimensions transferred them onto some 4MM steel and chain drilled out the centre section.
It was then clamped in the vice and I used a rotary bur to remove the excess before finishing it with a few files.
A quick test fit to make sure I was heading in the right direction.
The bucket on the back was a simple piece to fold up and was then gas welded on.
The pulls are nice and snug in their new homes. The plan is to have whole lot chromed and paint the inside black to add a little contrast.
I've also managed to finally get ahold of a set of innocenti door windows with opening quarterlights to add to the luxury theme I'm going for.
