  1. Congratulations Jose. That you enjoy a lot of this great project. You already know that the fun is to do it, not finish it. It's perfect
  2. I guess you mean the counter of the lineman. It is a lap counter so that all ropes are equally crooked. When it reaches the desired number of turns, I start to operate the part of the machine that has only one hook and begins the construction of the line. It is a way to control the final texture. If you want the end to be tighter, you give more laps, and vice versa
  3. I could spend the whole day watching your photographs Albert.
  4. You are making an extraordinary model. Congratulations.
  5. Hi dvm27 I like to put the curves before the beams to be able to match them all together with a piece of wood lined with sandpaper and made to measure with the appropriate shape. If you place the beams before there will be no possibility of doing so. Thank you.
  6. Does it feel like you have changed wood? From my point of view, I think you should keep the same wood in the whole boat. The monochrome contributes to the seriousness model. It is only my opinion Tiziano. Sorry if it is not like that.
  7. A model for the best museums in the world.
  8. It is a kind of varnish with a very fast drying, so the wood does not give time to remove the pore. When it dries, it is very soft so it is very easy to polish it later. The final look is very similar to the one that gets the wax with a satin finish that I really like. There are also tapaporos to water with similar results, but I like nitrocellulosic. Remember that it is not a product designed for the final termination, but it is a preparation prior to varnishing, but I use it as a termination. Thank you
