if that was corrugated cardboard, it certainly wont work in this case... the original construction pieces did not account for the extra thickness.

maaaslo got a reaction from mtaylor in The Christie Airfix vintage kit 1/12 1st edition for sale
Everything in the box is in remarkable condition for its age. This kit is of a first edition as per the number on the box.
there is a small handfull of parts taken out of their frames. Box has got one corner damaged and a small piece of the damage on the top of the box from the tape.
The water transfer sheet is present and undamaged. Instructions and a warranty card present.
i dont have a slightest clue of what this is worth i just know how much i paid a week ago. As long as i get that (or equivalent in other means) i will be happy.

maaaslo got a reaction from Knocklouder in Pinta by Maaaslo - Shipyard - 1/96 - card
i remember the times when computer programs were actually simple and did what you wanted them to do. this bleeding photo app on win10 cannot do simple image resize. and the one i downloaded to do image resize have distorted the pics.
i had to re-do it again. third time. hope now its ok.

maaaslo got a reaction from catopower in HMS ENTERPRIZE by DominichSteven - FINISHED - Shipyard - 1/64 - CARD
largest scale Shipyard does is so called SuperPlans edition. they did 3 models. I have one of those at home. Funny enough, it is also Enterprize. scale is 1/72. One could think your approach is even better. it will allow you to add details that on smaller scale are a bit too hard to do. At least for us, sub human. not everybody can be like DORIS, or when it comes to it, like you.
I would also reconsider leaving hatch covers opened. leaves a lot of empty room, that is calling for details, detail that you wont be able to fill anymore. decks are glued...
my hat off. you are showing some really nice progress. although, I don't think you will manage to finish this beauty in 5 months.

is this sort of framework also present on the real ship? in same configuration? if so, it would not be so hard to build this in semi-admiralty style with visible framework (at least the deck) and all the bells and whistles under the top decks...

Chuck, good step. i know how stupid people can get.
i would like to ask about tooling for your blocks? i was looking into making them. i am currently on the hunt for a nice proxxon mill, a kit to convert it to cnc mill and i would like to have a go at producing my own blocks. in one of your previous posts you mentioned some special mill bits that cost some around 750 dollars. would you share what they look like and where to get them from?
Thank you

I am not going to be revealing those methods just yet.....I just cut my income by 30% discontinuing rope. So I am keeping the block tutorial proprietary for the time being. I hope folks will respect that decision. But once I hang up my apron for good I will create a nice detailed tutorial.
Chuck
