Many years ago I needed a telephone box for a model that I was constructing. Those that I could buy from the model shop were clumsily cast in solid metal and I needed something much better. The first task was to find a drawing to work from. There was a phone box down the road so I took a tape measure and note pad. BT were cleaning the box when I got there so I had to wait, then a woman made one of those endless calls but finally it was free. I took very detailed measurements. Making the model was quite tricky as the parts were so delicate. The finished result was, I thought, worth the time and trouble. This is is a tiny model which I am still proud of.
