PeteB Posted November 13, 2016 Share #476 Posted November 13, 2016 Giampiero - Fabulous work again - I've been trying for a few days to put together some words to reflect my admiration of your work on the forepeak Timbers and cheeks and then you upped the anti by inlaying them with ebony? - I suspect your mastery of those curves has something to do with the beautiful women of your country I noted a thread in your inverted shot of the Lantern are you going to light that as well ?

giampieroricci Posted November 13, 2016 Author Share #477 Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) some progress. This work is really difficult. Especially I can not get the little crosses at the bottom of the third lap; I don't like how it is coming. I'm afraid that I have to look for alternative roads ......

Mike Y Posted November 13, 2016 Share #478 Posted November 13, 2016 Really delicate! How do you solder them? I would expect the heat to transfer really fast, you heat one area and all joints around it pop loose...

bdgiantman2 Posted November 13, 2016 Share #479 Posted November 13, 2016 Would using thinner wire work? Maybe gluing the wires instead of soldering for the bottom section? Or what about just placing the wire into position as the "glass" solidifies in the lantern? Just a few ideas to consider. Keep up the great model building.
