Mike
I went onto Fieblings web site but could not find "General Finishes black stain". Could you help to further identify which stain you used?
regards

J T Lombard got a reaction from mtaylor in copper plates
Mark:
I don't know if this will help. Look up marktiedens build log of the Model Shipways HMS Vanguard (1/72 scale). He used approx. 2000 to 2500 1/72 scale plates on his Vanguard. Hope this helps.

J T Lombard reacted to Kevin53 in Laying out plans in a smaller workshop
I struggled with what to do with the 42” x 30” drawings while building ship models. The sheets were too big to have laying around and I didn’t have the wall space in my work room to hang them up. My solution, which may be of interest to other modelers, was to design this drawing rack out of ¾” PVC pipe. The upper frame is at work bench height for the active drawing sheet. The lower frame is storage for drawing sheets not in use. It is a simple matter to move the sheets out of the storage frame and hang them in the upper frame. The whole assembly is light weight and can be moved out of the way when not in use. When in use, I like to position the rack behind my work table. Hanging the sheets vertically takes up minimal space, keeps them clean, and keeps them from getting wrinkled.
There is about $20 of PVC pipe and fittings invested in this. The attached pdf file is a measured drawing with a parts list. I just pushed the parts together without glue and it is very ridged. The drawing sheets are attached with ¾” binder clips to L shaped PVC corner molding which just lays in the rack. The L shape provides rigidity, a vertical surface to clip to, and a horizontal surface to sit in the rack. Not shown in the plans are two optional wood slats with casters that I attached to the bottom with ¾” metal pipe clips so it would roll around. I also pressed plastic pegs (screw anchors) into holes drilled into either end of the corner moldings to keep them from sliding off the rack.
