    This painting reminds me of another one - a large mural in the Air Museum in Palm Springs, California... Different ships, different planes though, but...

    Dziadeczek got a reaction from Canute in Lathe   
    I recently turned all yards for my "Frenchie" on my Sherline lathe (long bed type). With the exception of a few shortest ones, all others were too long to do it from one square piece of wood. So I had to do them in sections (three), two 'arms' and one center octagonal piece. Afterwards I glued them together with round pegs (flutted dowels) and Titebond glue into predrilled holes. The joints are invisible.

    Both are talking mostly about the Sherline, but general principles are the same for all.

    With a metal lathe you can turn soft metals (brass, copper, aluminum and perhaps even soft steel) as well as wood, but with a wood lathe you can only turn wood.
    Good quality lathe (Sherline, Proxxon, Taig) doesn't come cheaply, though... On the other hand, it is an investment for life...

    Thanks OC. I just blackened all the portholes on the white area of the hull. That's it for today.

    Dziadeczek got a reaction from kuya in Would like help identifying clamp and suggestions where I might buy some   
    I once made a handful of such mini C clamps from a length of aluminium U channel, slicing it on my Preac saw into narrow sections, drilling holes and thread tapping them to match my screws. Mine have 1/2 inch throat size, but perhaps you could also find your size in a hardware store.
    These are not heavy duty, plenty of power to hold planks, though.

    Why don't you scan the Polish instructions, indicate parts you don't understand and attach this here and I will try to help you.
    I do speak Polish, so I might be able to help.
