Kurt Johnson Posted May 25, 2020 #181 Posted May 25, 2020 The lighting fixture is ingenious!. I never knew things were that advanced back then. Kurt druxey 1 Quote Member: Ship Model Society of New Jersey
druxey Posted May 25, 2020 #182 Posted May 25, 2020 That is a lot of light! Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
JOUFF Posted May 30, 2020 Author #183 Posted May 30, 2020 Hello Gentlemen, Thank you for your feedback. The Leds ramp is now definitely in place : The false deck is glued. Here is a lighting test. The brightness satisfies me : the goal is not to let it light up permanently but to be able to show the inside of the hold on occasion ... So let there be light : So much for this day. I enjoyed myself ... Patrick popash42, captain_hook, J11 and 24 others 27 Quote

shipman Posted August 17, 2020 #189 Posted August 17, 2020 An un asked for tip.......a strip of rubber on the inside of one of the sides would give some friction, which would keep the pins where you wanted them to stay. Ondras71, druxey and mtaylor 3 Quote
mtaylor Posted August 17, 2020 #190 Posted August 17, 2020 I like that little homemade tool. I have one commercially made but it's huge for models. druxey 1 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned)
Trussben Posted September 6, 2020 #191 Posted September 6, 2020 Patrick, When you added the treenails to the Ebony wales, did you use the same "putty/paste" as you used on the other planking? It looks like quite a light color against the ebony? ben mtaylor 1 Quote Current builds: HMS Pegasus TFFM. HMS Winchelsea. Completed builds: ECHO cross section.18th C Longboat.QA Barge.
