  3. A nice way to keep track of your test samples. David B
  4. We have people from all over drop by for the sheer fun of shooting and trading ideas and having fun. I missed it this year because my illness but I know that a fun guy from NJ showed up with a large model of the Bismark. David B
  5. The aged oak looks good for the age. But the driftwood gives a distressed used look. David B
  6. Krug, if you do not bring that beauty to Manitowoc when finished I will be very upset you are doing an outstanding job. David B
  7. Mark, I use vinegar as well. The time is about 1/2 hour. The vinegar leaves a slight residue from the reaction with the brass. Acetone cleans it up pretty good.
  8. I just went through your log. First time I have seen the corsair, you are doing a fine job. Question. Why not use India Ink instead of something else? David B
  9. I am glad you are feeling better. In my case the flu would be lethal. My immune system is shot until my body recovers from my transplant. David B

  14. Your railing and coppering look great. I am glad you and your wive are better. The flu is not nice. David B
  15. Try using a smaller diameter drill bit then use a reamer to widen it out. This will prevent spliting. David B
  16. You are making me jealous. That is a lovely boat with style. David B
  17. That is what you get when you are under the influence of modeling. My advice is to take a break and have a glass of wine then take a nap. Then you will be ready for another round. David B
  18. Russ, one of the ways I have used for making brass stripping is to cement the sheet between two pieces of wood with contact cement. Then I would cut to width on my Preac. I have gotten down to 1/32 many times David B
  19. You are defiantly no beginner. Magnificent work. David B
  20. Hope you have a good time. Maybe you can find a pearl for the admiral. David B
