Hello Grant, It's good to hear from you. Thanks for stopping by and the good luck wish. I appreciate it. I finished my preparations for the interview on tuesday. I will let you know how it went. It's a good idea to let Sjors take the pictures, he has a better camera anyway. Thanks again and take care, Anja

Hello Alex, Very nice! You did good. I really like the walnut you used for the hull, good choice to keep it in one color. And you used furniture wax? Never heard of that one, but it turned out really good. Wax gives the wood a beautiful, warm and natural look, while the grain and texture of the wood remains visible. A tip - Only when the wood gets sparse, it makes sense to rub it again. Maybe once or twice a year. Take care, Anja

Hello Wim, It is indeed not quite the same. But with your skills and talent, the modification will turn out just fine. Will you be drawing the modifications yourself on the basis of the replica? Or do you have another source? Good luck with the modification and take care, Anja

What is your favorite hand tool(s)??
Anja replied to Modeler12's topic in Modeling tools and Workshop Equipment
Hello everyone, These are my favorite handtools. My little hobby knife It is almost my sharpest tool available, and never shy to make a sharp cut. It goes through almost every piece of wood. I don't argue with it, otherwise I will cut myself. And If I do my measurements well, everthing will be cut the way I want. But if I forget to change the blades in time, It will ruin my modeling dreams. My sandpaper It is not the most beautiful tool. It has a rough skin and it wears quickly, but it will create the smoothest surfaces for me. My tweezers That's my tool when I have small objects to be manipulated. Two extra fine fingers for small pieces for which Even my fingers are too big to handle. But I don't dare squeeze it too hard, or the parts will fly all over the place. Take care, Anja -
Hello Spyglass, I am thinking about an Ironclad warship, maybe the Lave from 1854? Take care, Anja
