Nice doors, Robbyn. Isn't dabbing in the "darkside" fun?
-
Amazing craftsmanship, Mark. Looks absolutely perfect from the pictures.
-
Beautiful, Nico. The chrome really brings out her lines.
-
Thanks Dave and Russ.
-
Nice work, Juan. She looks great!
-
Very nicely done, Sjors. Looks great. Too bad you can't ignore the cries from Mirage and work some more on her.

Mobbise.... Saturday huh? I'll be patient.

Wow....

Nice work on the hull planking, Robert. What was it you used on the deck? -
You're giving me ideas for my Licorne.... which is a good thing.

I've done the same thing in various places for different reasons. In the midwest it was to inject air into the tail of a nightcrawler when bass fishing.. Here in Oregan, it's been for dispensing glue. I've also used them to dispense loctite, thin machine oil, and other substances (not illegal) in my racing and model aircraft days. Not sure I understand the bit about needing a prescription to by a syringe. I mean.. they have other uses for crying out loud.

Thanks Sinan.

Hamilton, When you're ready.... Meantime, we'll kickback and watch the grass grow. As you guessed, we're easily distracted.

BINGO!!!!! Grant, that's the one!. Now to put it back into my favorites....

Pat, I've got to say this: Check the square before using it. I've had 3 of the darn things and not one of them was "square".

Floyd, To quote; "I didin do nuthin!!".... Interesting that it "fixed" itself... hmmm... I know I see things slightly different at work than at home. Same OS and browser, but different monitor and PC. I hear you on the reason for playing with this stuff. I do IT (support work) for a heath insurance company. I'm trying to ignore Win8 and IE10, but probably won't happen. I'll have to face the monsters.

I too, will pull up a chair. No two Syrens ever come out the same way as every builder adds their own touch and personality to it.

Popeye, you never cease to amaze and inspire me.

Beautiful work on building this. Very well done. Thanks for sharing it.
-
Nice set-up wood and set-up work. Can't wait to see the set-up keel.

Piet, Hope you get to feeling better. My wife went through the implant thing and based on her experience I can sympathize with you. (I'm cringing....). Nice gammoning.

Using Blacken-IT
mtaylor replied to fnkershner's topic in Painting, finishing and weathering products and techniques
Floyd, Harvey gave the most comprehensive description I've seen. The only thing I would add is that after acetone, soak the part in vinegar for about 15 to 30 minutes to get some "tooth" into the brass. Also, rinse with distilled water. Lightly buff when dry. I get inconsistant results no matter how consistant I am with preparation and using the product. Could be I'm using different types of brass but I'm not sure.
