The Ship Model Forum

After summer break I return to construction of its models.

After ascent of models happen to make anew all small details:

it was got 0,01 kg details hope that model has not sunk

today work with fabrication mast:

g8t attention to detail

but your wooden deck caught my attention can you please provide details on it, thanks

Good to see you back!

Maybe you can repost some of your deck mAking pictures, and maybe sme of of the sinking and recovery...?

Its a mystery how you can bear to put such fine modelmkaing afloat-in REAL water!!!

.....not like my fake water- of paper and gel....

Regard Jim!
But me for instance much like your naves on paper sea! I want to return back, be 14 - year boy, and play in sea battle by your battleships.

Repeat the history about sinking and recovery � I think this will uninteresting. This already there was is told.

fabrication of mast

steps I gag straightedge in rubber bent

cut soldering by gas (the right step cost (stand)s on acid possible there was and so solder!)

EXCELLENT Methodology!!!!
Love the forming of the steps in the Rubber-_ I have been using a soft pad of paper for a similar effect and similar purpose

but it does not do as good a job as your method-

I am off to look for some rubber....

Can you tell a little more on the soldering? I've been trying without much succes!

Impressive job so far Maximus , i'll make sure to keep an eye on this one.

I am bad storyteller in english - so I has drawn.

Soldering:
1. Cover fine layer tin(?????) a whole tube. there where will be steps.
2. To drip the acids under extreme steps (the detail 3 and 4) install the steps. Neatly, (from afar) warm the tube by gas burner.
3. Salve acid a tube between stairs (3) and (4)
4. Place firmly straightedge (1) in steps (3) and (4)
�

E further I think all understandable.

@ Maximus: I think I more or less understand, even though I do not understand how to apply the tin and what acid to use. Actually, I don't think I understand too much about the process so far ...

How do you apply a fine layer of tin? This is by heating solder or? I think I need a basic course in metal working!

Foeth

but me with plastic!

forgive me my english

1. tin(?????)=solder (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solder)
2. acid = ZnCl

Stunning work!
