    For the correct attachment of the deadeyes, I have set up a temporary mast with the exact spot where the shrouds will be fitted. In this way, by pulling a line all the way over the channels, I can define the perfect inclination of the chains:

    For now, I am gaining experience with this type of welding, but I must say that it has undoubted advantages, if only for the convenience of use
  27. giampieroricci
    I am sharing a video I made for those interested in small metal welding. Following some tutorials and videos, I built myself a resistance welder; it is a type of welder that they use mainly in model railways, where it is necessary to make many close welds. This type of soldering iron uses a 10 Ah transformer with 3-6V outputs and has the advantage that it heats, by means of a small graphite electrode and a ground wire, exactly the spot where the soldering is to take place for just a few seconds; this means that you can also make close-set soldering joints without running the risk of desoldering those previously made. Various types of tips can be used, including a ‘clamp’ system, which is very useful when parts to be soldered must be held together. Everything else is self-made and I must say that I am very satisfied with the results! Translated with DeepL.com (free version) https://youtu.be/XRzU--9uhBA

    After preparing the part, it is necessary to weld: To give it its final shape, I used an old, suitably shaped iron plate

    I continue with the long work on the preventer plates: I thought I would take a photographic step-by-step that I hope will be useful: I used ordinary 1 mm brass wire:

    You are making a beautiful model! I don't understand why you have to use those plastic moulded bottles which are an eyesore compared to the beautiful look of the rest! Your skill allows you to make them as they should be made! Sorry, but I had to tell you, although everyone is free to do as they please.....

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.
