Hi its nice to see people like it, thanks for the comment.
It has a long piano hinge down the left hand of the door and 5 small brass
ball catches on the opening side.
This keeps all the faces clear of fittings and gives a big clear window with no joints !

The plants are real but only a few days old, not shore how long they will last.

The cliffs are all made from expanding foam,cut to shape and then a very wet plaster was applied then dried out fast to make it crack.
Hey presto, job done ! lol
