How did you make the windows and the light?

What quirks did you find?

The main quirk was discovering that anything that prints near the back of the print bed gets very irregular. So far, I suspect the print head rocking due to the wiring harness and/or the filament exerting pressure on it when the head moves back that far.

There are lots of parts that go together. The windows and the light on top are printed in natural abs and the rest of the parts in blue. Most of the parts just snap together and are held in place by the way the model is designed. I did glue on the roof bits since they didn't want to stay in place, especially with the wires for the LEDs folded up in the top. Excruciating detail is available in the link above :-).

Discovered lots of quirks about my solidoodle in the process of getting it to print:
