Making a miniature IBM 1401 scale model. Scratch build, no 3D printing allowed here! OC

This is an IBM 1401 scaled model I am working on, part of a diorama. It is a scratch build made of polystyrene mostly.
I make everything by hand, no 3D printing involved.
The IBM 1401 is a computer from 1959, considered to be the first successful mass produced computer. I have been working on this miniature diorama since December last year, to celebrate its 60th anniversary.
