Cortebert Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 I have been asked numerous times would I make a Tropic 24 Plexi and my reply has always been the same...not until I get an authentic one I can work from..... Well last week I managed to pick up an authentic Tropic 24 (along with a few other members) and for the first time I had something accurate to work off. The shape, both inside and out , has been accurately measured.... this meant taking multiple readings across the outer and inner surfaces to map out the exact shape of the tropic.... Here is the result... One of these is the authentic tropic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
