  1. Keith, i also want to congratulate you and all members of the forum on Christmas! Please accept my best wishes for the coming New Year!!
  2. Thanks, Keith! I think that this is a device for winding a wet cable so that it does not slip, or maybe for a temporary stopping of the cable until it is fixed on the bollard or in the stopper.
  3. Yes, this is a 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air. It is this specimen that has a special history. Nikita Khrushchev bought this car in Vienna, and then he presented it to Leonid Brezhnev for his collection.
  4. Thanks Phil! And from me, congratulations and best wishes for the holidays!!
  5. Phil, great idea! I'll try to apply it on my next model. Vladimir has almost finished the CLG-5 model, it remains to make boats. You know that it happens that sometimes the modelers are distracted by other work.
  6. Lou, of course come to Zaporozhye. We have few museums, but there are some very interesting ones for those who like technology.
  7. Gary, Keith, thank you! I hope to extend the enjoyment of viewing the pictures a little.
  8. Yes, Lou, I understand you. I am very pleased that my work brings so many positive emotions!
  9. Thanks everyone for your feedback and likes! The final appearance of the capstan after plating with nickel in an electroplating bath.
  10. Sorry Roger, but I don't know the exact name in English, maybe it's a die. https://markis.su/shop/filernaya-doska-eagle/
  11. Thanks, Keith. The photo shows a wire with a diameter of 0.9 mm, but for other shackles I use wire from 0.7 to 1.2 mm.
  12. Allan, everything is very simple - I show it with the example of a large rod.
  13. The resulting blanks are crimped on a rod with a diameter of 1.2 mm.
  14. Rigging shackle, perhaps someone will be interested in this version of its manufacture. Manufacturing a semi-circular blank. I pull the brass bar through the die.
  15. Yes, Bedford, you are right. This is only a rough assembly, the shaft on the electric motor is also temporary, it will be shortened later.
  16. Greetings to you, Alexander! Thank you for your feedback and I am a little behind the times, so the question for you is - have you started your new project or are you still choosing?
