  1. Hello Geoff, as it seems there is no Thicknesssander of these dimensions available in Europe. what would be the price if you should decide to produce it? In Case you do- let me know! Greetings Rudolf
  2. Good Morning, while electroplating with copper or nickel seems quite common, I wonder if it can be done with brass, as this an alloy of copper, tin, bismuth... any information on that would be very much appreciated. Greetings, Rudolf
  3. Very cool George! By the way I have book on Austro-Hungarian Brigantine of the the same period, the Zaida, which had been built in Venice as wall. She looks very similar to Ares. I think you did a splendid job creating the plans and the model . Greetings, Rudolf
  4. Beautiful Colin, Looks the real thing at this scale! What book are using for the drawings of the smack? Greetings, Rudolf
  5. Outstanding, I like the look of the hand carved decorations, even better than CNC . Greetings, Rudolf
  6. I must have ben lucky then, my Hegner saw still runs very smoothly, very little vibration, even a higher speeds. I must try a new one once and see if if there is a difference. Those saws, albeit pricey seem to be quite popular in Germany and Austria. Greetings, Rudolf
  7. Hi Juddson, I have been using an old Hegner scroll saw for 20 years or so, I had bought used and I am still happy with it. I has multiple speeds and thus gives you a lot of control over your cut. It looks pretty much like the red saw in Bob Cleeks post. Hegner is still made in Germany Greetings Rudolf
  8. Kortes, your log is still an inspiration to me and others, the fact that even a master like you needs a few attempts to achieve perfection is somewhat comforting. Keep up the beautiful work! May god bless you and your folks!
  9. What a beauty George! Not only are the details stunning and the overall proportion of a three decker is perfectly portrayed, also the spirit of a sailing warship in Mediterranean waters arises nicely. Greeting, Rudolf
  10. Great subject Simon, there used to be a planet by Harold Underhill at 1/96, published by Brown and Ferguson, I do not know however if and where they are available nowadays. Greetings, Rudolf
  11. Outstanding work! Is the grating cut by hand? It looks so crisp as if laser cut. Thank you for this phantastic log. Greetings , Rudolf
  12. Very Cool, Kortes ! Thank you very much for the explanation. Obviously you have an extremely steady hand. Greeetings Rudolf
