    You are right Marc. There is an another point ... considering my son (Hothead) is last four years in Novi sad ( 80km from Belgrade) on his study od architecture, and he is at home 7-10 days in winter and 1-1,5 months at summer, he is factually almost gone from home. So, it seems that my single life, as my final life story, just begins, and I have to adjust and adopt myself to this semi-new situation. This is, let`s say, multilayered situation, in all fields of living and working. Home organization is quite different now, my day time also, by all means. Of coursse, I do not intend to spend the rest of my days alone, and I continualy do some steps in this direction , but life is life, adn we will see what will be on this field. So, on some way, there is a bit of time required to put myself in shape, and to make adequate, so needed in 60th year of life, regular day routine Life is nice, and let us enjoy in it !!!!

    FOLDER MECHANISM - part 4 In my sctrach build of CS, chekpoint I get stuck are deck winches ... Scale is app. 1:100, so, considering C-plans, dimensions are show on picture above Hmm, pretty small, and I want as much as possible details Question of material to use raised First attempt was wit paper laminated with vener, covered with acrylic paint, with idea to use acrylic ability to plastify Not good, too fragile Next attempt was with Cu foil 0,3mm So soft to manipulate with Results: I need something harder, but not to much, to be able to modify it with my Einhel graver set and tools I have And i rembered, that I use earlier in my build parts of folder mechanism, so why not again? I printed my working drawings on self-adhesive paper, and prepare metal part for working with And - yes, this is it! On next pictures you can se test part Sure, next step is to make four of them more precise

    Thank you Mark and Marc In meantime I saw that I have to correct drawings a bit, to make room for four thinu "wire" holders which connect "leg" to "leg"
  14. NenadM
    Next test was done with Cu foil ... Hmm ... No! Too soft What now? Think, Nenad, think! Eureka! I remembered that I use folder mechanism for bulwark sheaves, so, let's try it again This is where we are going to Preparing for next test - done. Self adhesive paper with laser stamp made in Adobe Illustrator After one hour of carving And - as I see, material is ok, testing passed good So, let's do it a bit precise in four same pieces

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.
