  1. Sasha, I agree with Eberhard, brass rings are completely unnecessary here. You won't be able to make them the right size, it's a very small detail. Try making a loop of thread without a knot. Using cyacrine glue only, simply bend the thread into a loop and secure with glue. After this, cut off the extra piece of thread. This is how the bottom loop in the photo is made.
  2. Eberhard, this is not entirely true. The yards on the Varyag were not designed for sails. So I did everything as shown in the photo of the cruiser.
  3. Hello Sasha! I cannot explain this in words because the translator greatly distorts the terminology. I can only show in the photo how I made these parts on the Varyag.
  4. Hello Brett! If you need these drawings, write to me in a personal message. But I have them in the form of large fragments that will have to be joined.
  5. Phil! I use 30, 60, 80 and 100 watt soldering irons. I have a soldering station, but I rarely use it because I am not satisfied with the shape and quality of the heating element.
  6. The steering wheel at the stern was a spare one, and the main one was in the wheelhouse, in the bow of the ship. This is where the steering rope goes along the side.
  7. Gary, thank you for pleasing me with your next masterpiece. The sardine carrier makes you freeze for a long time in front of the monitor screen. This is wonderful! 👍👌
  8. Yes, Yves! Blagoev's scale is smaller than Varyag's, so I have to take larger and larger matches.
  9. Nils, this is easy to do by knurling on a lathe. I have already talked about this process, look here , on page 13 of this topic.
  10. Yes, Nils, brass must be periodically annealed over a fire. Yes, Eberhard, you are right. The technological line is exactly like this. Thank you, Stephane! I am pleased that in France they are interested not only in sailing ships.
  11. Yves and Phil! I have a set of matches of various calibers. For example, this match is one of the biggest.
  12. Thank you Keith! Don't pay attention to the incorrect terms. These are distortions from Google Translate.
