Hi Kim,
good news that you�re working on the 350th set - looks like another must-have for the next year!

kind regards, Daniel

Thanks Alang, I tried applying water on a small piece of scrap, but didn't see any advantage. In any case I've applied all of the decking without too much trouble. Thanks for your help. Next task is painting the swastikas onto the deck.

Yep. but all the schedules were complexed and mixed with Trumpeter's new 1/200 lines.
So I would not promise any more detailly. But I can tell you now we are designing 1/350 Kongo class, and 1/350 Bismarck surely.

David,
With watering, it seems similar as without, but you can relocate for fitting with deattaching again more easily.
Even with water you should be care for the finger oils. though finger oils might seems no effect on the attachment strength. But with times, this area can be bubbled at later. So please be care not to touch the addhesive side with finger directly. But after watering this fingeroil negative effect can be quitely reduced.

Good Luck for your work.

Thank you

Dear all
I've been reading quite a time, with growing interest as Bismarck and sets are gathered together over the year - now it's the time to start...precede...
Many, many thanks to Alang for his extraordinary work!
There is only one question open to me - is ist necessary to sand down the deck before fixing the wooden deck ?

No need to sand deck down.
I just whetted the back of the wood deck, positioned and pushed down into place.
Very happy to say that now some six months on nothing has lifted.

Enjoy your build and best wishes to all for Christmas and the new year.

Peter,
Yep as Alang said you need not sand out the surface of injection deck.
But as described on the manual page 1, you should remove the purple colored parts or area before applying Wood deck.
And you should be careful fingers not to touch the addhesive side before watering.
After watering, it is no problem with finger oils.

Thank you
Kim

Kim,

Any update on the "Advanced" Bismarck set please?

Not starting my build until I have BOTH sets as that would be pointless so come on you said we would see it before now but you seem to be on with other things.

Can we get back on track please and finish this Bismarck project.

Thanks

Pete

I m trying to find the part number 855 and 856 for the swinging boom. But unfortunately couldn't find it.

Does anyone have an idea where I can find it?
