Re: doing railing canvas - a little how-to...
Hallo Peter ,
nice work , indeed .
you glue your stanchions with CA glue , is it to avoid soldering or does soldering not work/stick on your stanchions ?
If I got it right , you apply the white glue solution on the outside , or is it on the inside ( or even both sides ) ?
That silk paper , where did you get it ( paper shop ? one of those patchwork/hobby women shop ? )
Thanks for this tip .
Regards ,
Laurent

Re: doing railing canvas - a little how-to...
Hi all ,
I applied Peter's trick to my "Zinnia" monkey bridge
the differences with his work are that I soldered my stanchions on the rails & I used kitchen aluminium foil instead of silk paper . Peter supplied me with stanchions & other parts of an outstanding quality
the foil has been glued on the railing with CA glue , the whole being painted with paint from the same spray cans I used for the rest of the ship ...
here the pictures :

Who are you talking to? I am so tired when I come home, that I rarely get to continue my torpedoboat. And at the weekend my wife treats my with garden work...
