    The desk showed by Joe is wonderful, however there is no sufficient space under the desk with the drawers. Also, I do not think, based on the picture showed, that there is sufficient space in the width between the left and the right part of the desk for a wheel chair or something like that. Electric Adjusting working table cost a lot. If you can it will be the best. Just take care that the entire structure is stable (foot legs). Michel

    I agree with Gaetan Bordeleau. My wife is tetraplegic, I the best thing for her is an electric table or an informatic kind desk with 30 " height (on top). You need around 28 " under desk if you are on wheel chair. This work well for her : https://www.bureauengros.com/products/636145-fr-safcomd-bureau-dordinateur-a-surface-reversible-48-po DOn't forget something like a plate that can help you turning your build around or clamping keel like the Amati one that can do the same (turning the build). You can use also wall mounted hucht over the desk like this one Prepac

    I did not fond all the materials proposed, so , finally, I purchased these soldering Materials : Hakko FS-100 Tip Cleaner ; Canfield solid wire 60/40 (no core). I will cut chip or or make flake with cutter ; MG Chemicals Rosin Paste Flux . Thanks for everyone who have contributed in this thread. Michel

    Hi, Do you agree that this model could be a good start for the first POF ship after build some other POB intermediate ones ? Michel

    Thanks Phil, your solution appeal me.

    Thanks Pat, it is interesting to read different opinion. I was aware about lead and the new stuff with no lead content. So, should I buy thin/copper/silver wire ? Is the proportion of content of each, except for melting temperature point, important for quality of the finition on PE ? Oh I forget : lots of no lead solder wire contain rosin in core, I do not know if this fit your recommandation. Thanks, Michel
  29. Michel L.
    Well, another and sat question for you. I do not want to abuse... Lead or no lead content ? Wire/rosin included or wire + rosin liquid or paste flux ? Thanks you, Michel
  30. Michel L.
    Finally, I choosed the Hakko FX-888D FX29BY. Now I search for solder wire or liquid flux and tip cleaner paste. Thanks Michel
  31. Michel L.

  32. Michel L.

    Oh! Good new, good stuff at a good price. I will take a look for it. There is a lot of choice on amazon, but a lot of chinese material too. And did you purchased complementary tips with it ? Is large flat tip can be useful for some small planking area ? Thank you Michel

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.
