It is Italeri Nebelwerfer. It is an ancient kit.

Scratchbuilding and after market items are fine, as long as you only use the basic tools. I would state that the Laser would be counted as a tool, so as long as you stated that this is one of the tools you are going to use you're ok to go ahead.

I need a little clarification on this point.

I am (finally) working on the old 1971 Tamiya Panzer II F/G. I had intended an OOB build but for a set of Fruils. After consulting the research material a see that all of the operational vehicles I could see have the radio mast UP, Tamiya has molded it folded into a protective box.

Cutting the base of the mount off is no issue and adding an aerial is also straightforward. The problem is that Tamiya has molded the mast itself into the bottom of the box and I can think of no way to remove it given my modest skill level.

So - the obvious solution is to make a new box. I would like to make it out of wood as the original appears to be made of wood. I would like to cut the pieces on a laser.

As I read the above quoted rule, this would come under the category of scratch building and so the laser should be OK. Just the same, I do not wish to violate the spirit of the rule. Please advise me here. I can always build it as Tamiya molded it, I just would prefer to "improve" it.
