Greg W Posted February 20, 2021 Share #61 Posted February 20, 2021 I have been struggling with the metal railings as they are not shaped well at all to fit the boat. Did you heat them to re shape or ?? Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drobinson02199 Posted February 20, 2021 Author Share #62 Posted February 20, 2021 Greg: Depends on which ones you are talking about. The ones that I had difficulty with were the curved ones at the bow and forward cockpit. In fact, one of the stanchions broke off the railing and I had to glue it back on. I did not heat them. Just bending and fitting. Regards, David Quote David Robinson Boston, MA area Completed: Constructo J.S. Elcano, Artesinia Latina Sanson, Dumas Mt.

neilm Posted December 7, 2023 Share #63 Posted December 7, 2023 Building this also. Tried emailing Amati twice for a replacement part but no reply whatsoever. Shame on them really. They make great products but i found the after sales very disappointing, so beware on that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck. Quote Please, visit our Facebook page!

Altduck Posted December 7, 2023 Share #65 Posted December 7, 2023 I just "found" this build and it is one beautiful model. Love all the detail, especially the interior with the maps and mags and all. Well Done. drobinson02199 1 Quote Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
