shipmodel Posted Saturday at 11:49 PM #2551 Posted Saturday at 11:49 PM Marc - Most importantly, Joyce and I send our heartfelt wishes to you and your family. Health and love, my friend. On a much less important note - my method for setting lifelike ropes is to wet them first with just water. You can do this repeatedly until you have the look your want. There is no time limit with glue drying out. Then paint the wet ropes with dilute PVA, which will penetrate the fibers better and not lay on the surface. Hope that works for you.

Hubac's Historian Posted Sunday at 02:37 AM Author #2552 Posted Sunday at 02:37 AM David, Bill, Dan, and all who have visited recently - thank you for your well-wishes! We are all an aging crew, and I know that so many of you have tread the path I am walking now. It is so appreciated, on my end. My Dad is going to be okay. His scans all came out clean; no internal bleeding or broken bones. He isn’t happy to be there, but he will remain in-hospital for a few days to monitor his UTI and kidney function. Dan - as always, your advice is TIMELY! This was exactly what I needed to know. Thank you, again, my friend! FriedClams, druxey and shipmodel 3 Quote We are all works in progress, all of the time.
