Thanks grovenik

the prototype cab was made of cardboard to help get right shape, the lorry will be made to look like an american 'cabover' lorry (like a wooden tamiya globliner)

The proper cab is made of ply panels attached to a wooden frame inside, the side panels were temporarily screwed so that i could cut them out as one with the jigsaw, stopping it from having a 'one side longer than the other' problem
panel pins were used to attach everything, with 'no more nails' put in as well to stop the pins from pulling out, until i ended up with something that looks like a lorry
