Just like to share my ideas 💡 when its posible (not all of them works LOL 😂 But when it does im just posting them)
Best regards ,

Y.T that is true when you have access to that aria

but in my case you cant reach the spot without risking the model ,but with this tool you can get a perfect sanding very quick and must important without taking any risk 

Hello friends

long time ago i had the chance to buy few brand new tools of proxxon from some guy who bought them and never used them ...

one of the tools called Delta its a bit big for our hobby.. but I knew a day would come and I would find use of this tool 
so today i had to sand some aria in the ship but it was very difficult to reach this spot..

so i made a very handy and precise tool for my Delta 

i used an aluminum strip for the tool

firs i made an hole of 10 mm to feat the delta screw

than i cute the shape that i want (by using a table saw , and sanding disc)

and after all i twisted the aluminum to useful shape 

and after all i used an sticky sand paper 

and its working amazing !!!!!!!!!!!

i hope you will find it useful

Best regards,

Michael.

Thank you Jaager

are you doing that weakly on your table saw ?

The best thing its to buy a pack of 100 from AliExpress for a few dollars with shipping .....

a have a pack that I bought something like 3 years ago and still have a lot of them left 

/

This what it says about lubrication In the manual of the table saw .

is there anyone how doing that ? 
If so what brand of oil do you use ?

best regards ,

Michael.

Thank you dear friends !

and what about the oil ? It says that you need to oil some parts in the saw weekly 

are you doing that ? 

Hello There ,

I Bought the Byrnes table saw few month ago ,

and just start to work with the machine :)

im wondering if someone can make a video about how to change the blade 

and also i saw in the instructions that you need to oil some parts of the table saw , so i will be more than happy if someone can explain how to do it :)

Best regards,

Michael.

Thank you all for your tips !!!!

i have some time until i will gate to this stage but waiting for me a lot of gun ports in my victory ...

Best regards 

Michael.

Y.T thank you for replying ,

the problem with the x acto knife is that you cant really cut a a clean line when the planks are glue to the ship ....

i saw long time ago a micro saw (looks like a blade of x acto ) 

after searching in micro mark i have found it

the question is if someone has use it before for that method ... ?

also i saw in a very old build log some Chinese micro saw but i cant found it At the moment ..

Hello there

what is the best tool / method for cutting windows of gunports ? 

After a lot of thinking … 

I think I have found the problem , 

if you will look carefully you will see the piece 373 came bigger , 

here is a 2 pictures for comparing (my build and the Calder craft build ) 

The caldercraft piece finished with the line of the first gun ports pattern blue arrow

and mine finish about 2.5 mm Downstairs red arrow 

so the best solution it’s to cut the end off part 373 and bring it to the same line of the first gun ports pattern 

anyway it will not make any changes for the finishing panel ( even if I will need to take off from the panel. Because that panel will be painted black without any decoration here is a picture from caldercraft of a finishing model)

Hello there

working on the back gallery and got some issues ..

i have fixed and glue the windows pattern of the gallery (part no.374)and also the stern fascia inner skin (part no.373)

in the right position regarding the line of the top quarter gallery pattern (part no.215)

and now i have a problem with part no.371 this pare is about 2 mm up from the last slot that old the part no 220..

here is a picture from joitica the part no.371 need to be flash with the corner as the red Arrow but in my case it finished in about 2 mm up (at the point of the yellow arrow )

the thing is , i saw the same problem in other build logs but they fix it without to talk about that 

i have some idea show to fix it but any idea will cause other problems ... 

Hello Jonesey ,

me too , I think I will leave it without the plates but will see

Thank you md1400cs

about the plates im not sure may be leave it without the plates like Berto it looks more serious with wood finishing but there is a time to decide ...
