Boots, Jeff, I'm halfway the facade now and I'm getting pretty bored by now.😮‍💨

A styrene rod was added to the wall decoration strip as the upper joint was too thick. Problem solved in a lazy way and the strip looks a bit more decorative now.

Sometimes Guy, the lazy way is the best way. This is one of those times. A simple plastic rod cures the gap issue, evens things out and trims out the window casement. Plus it looks awesome. Well done, Bro.
