  1. I use chemical blackening for much of the brasswork. The product is Birchwood Casey Brass Black Metal Finish which I bought from a local gun shop.

  2. Your patience is amazing. Good job. Have you tried a blackening agent on the brass? It darkens the metal and will not chip Jerry
  3. Sorry, I was just responding to Captain 71's request for info Jerry
  4. I found a great nailing tool at a model train supplier. I think Micro Mark and Model Expo may have them also. Cheers, Jerry
  5. Thanks for the tips, guys. Jerry
  6. I really appreciate the input concerning Mamoli kits. I have my eye on the Surprise, having listened to most of Aurbry's adventures on talking books, and being able to visualize the ship through those stories. I have loved the old sailing ships since I was a kid, watching Errol Flynn and his swash bucklers. I am working my way through the Dapper Tom, and probably have another 6 months of rigging to complete. All of my prior ships have been modern warships such as Tamiya's Fletcher Class destroyer and USS Missouri. ttyl, Jerry
