    And now all that remains for me is to make the parts of the required sizes and solder them together.

    Two parts #2 are a truncated cone with previously known parameters. Using a calculator (online) to calculate the dimensions of the truncated cone scan, I get the dimensions I need. https://stanok74.ru/klientam/poleznye-formuly-i-dannye/kalkuljator-rascheta-razvertki-konusa-iz

    Phil, thank you for your kind words, I am flattered! In this situation with the manufacture of a sloping visor, everything is also quite simple. If the part is of a rather complex configuration, then I try to apply the following principle: - divide the complex part into several very simple ones in configuration - concentrate your efforts not on the manufacture of one very complex part, but on the assembly of several simple ones into one single and complex part.

    Jan, thank you for your feedback! And I will allow myself to comment on it a little. What you called "gifted" I still put in third place in importance. Experience and skills definitely claim second place. But in first place should be the necessary high-quality machines and tools, because without them the necessary experience cannot appear and no gifted can help with this.
  25. Valeriy V
    Thanks, Gary! There's really nothing particularly complicated about it. The main condition is to maintain the manufacturing accuracy of the parts within 0.1-0.2 mm. And then their assembly by soldering is not difficult.
  26. Valeriy V
    The contours of the model gradually take shape.
  27. Valeriy V
    Thank you all for your kind comments and likes!!!

    6. and now I am putting all the parts of the chimney together
  29. Valeriy V
    5. soldering the ventilation visor in the upper part of the pipe casing
  30. Valeriy V
    4. soldering the ventilation visor in the lower part of the pipe casing
  31. Valeriy V
    3. soldering side panels
  32. Valeriy V
    2. soldering of end panels.
  33. Valeriy V
    Hello everyone! I am making progress on the cruiser model. And it is time to solder the smoke pipes. 1. The pipe frames are soldered.
  34. Valeriy V
    Thanks Phil! For painting, the degreasing process is of primary importance. Surface roughness is secondary. I degrease surfaces with caustic soda (NaOH).
  35. Valeriy V
    Everything shown in the photos is soldered without using a radiator. I very rarely use a radiator. In this process, you need to determine the correct soldering sequence. First, the most massive parts are soldered and only after that the small parts are soldered. In this case, you can do without a radiator.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
