peewee Posted September 23, 2014 #1 Posted September 23, 2014 Hi All, Well I thought I should start a post and fully join in. Whilst looking into the scratch build section options i thought i would do the Panart deck section. It will give me something to do and look at Just the frame completed with 2 mm dowels on the key joints not up to some levels but a start Ian justsayrow, yvesvidal, mtaylor and 2 others 5 Quote Ian Still Sane? who knows, who cares Current Build Panart deck section

peewee Posted October 17, 2014 Author #4 Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Well the next essential step has been taken, well not quiet essential but nice step at least. I have had other model disk sanders and either had issues around build or lack of dust extraction. This seems from the reviews fits the bill, and must say as a former model engineer extremely well made and smooth operation. tomorrow it gets dusty.

peewee Posted October 18, 2014 Author #6 Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) Hi All Just a quick update as i did some work today in order to test out the new Byrnes disk sander. so I made the gratings up and cut and sanded some planks to length. I was not disappointed. I also came across mikeaidanh build log of this kit and I have to say i am impressed located here Edited September 24, 2017 by peewee Dropbox WackoWolf, GuntherMT, cristikc and 2 others 5 Quote Ian Still Sane? who knows, who cares Current Build Panart deck section
peewee Posted June 19, 2018 Author #7 Posted June 19, 2018 Well i can not believe its been almost 4 years, but i suppose having a little one will do that. Enough of the excuses back to the slowest build i have ever done Jack12477, yvesvidal, Canute and 1 other 4 Quote Ian Still Sane? who knows, who cares Current Build Panart deck section
peewee Posted April 7, 2019 Author #8 Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) Some more painfully slow progress. Question, i am at a stage when I need to stain/lacquer the wood, what do people use in the UK for a natural look that won't yellow. Will be speedier from here on in. Cheers Edited April 7, 2019 by peewee Picture GrandpaPhil and yvesvidal 2 Quote Ian Still Sane? who knows, who cares Current Build Panart deck section
