Greetings all, I have been building the Wasa by Corel for about three years now. I'm now fitting the decoration metal castings.Does anyone know how to separate the cast figures from the sprues? I've tried everything to no avail. The metal under the brass plating is some hard stuff. I'm thankful to have the NRG website to consult. Years back to get any info on Model ship stuff you had to go to the library. Having the NRG site is like having an panel of experts in your room. Kudos to NRG and the experts on it.

Hello jhart65,

 

This will work great. Saw slowly especially when you reach the end of the casting nub.

Thanks for the tip. I don't know why I didn't think of that. I have been following you and other Wasa by Corel builds for years now. I'm amazed by the craftsmanship and artistry. When I am stumped on my Wasa build I can usually find a solution for the ship. Thank you all for the contributions to the realm of ship modeling. As for me, I will probably submit photos of my Wasa when it is finished.

Jhart65,

May I suggest you start showing off your Wasa, you have a whole panel of members just waiting to see what you have built.
