B737 rails buildings

[alpha tango]

Hi everyone, That was a little difficult, but that's it! I almost finished the rails for the seats of Boeing 737NG. Now I can affirm that it is possible to build its own rails and that they are very close to the real rails. The main difficulty is due to the fact that these rails are "L" rails to permit to make some place between the seats and the pedestal. The way I used is working very good... Here is a photo while waiting to put all the details of this building on my site ...in a few days!

I think I should have said "Brainstormed" instead of "Brainwashed" (-:
