These are traditional stained glass panels we made in 1997. We had a stand the festival of speed that year. These were the leftovers. Too busy these days fixing church windows. Might be tempted to do something mini based. Any ideas?
The light box is homemade with eBay sticker. Cheap and cheerful.

Since I moved houses last year, I have used the holidays to change the attic in a kind of cave, might be of your interest too (certainly my kids like it :lol: ). Still need to sort some parts and finish the final touch.

:) Hi Peter, that's what I call a real cave for a man and a Scalextric playground of children.
Thanks for posting,
