Yoshka Posted October 28, 2019 #1 Posted October 28, 2019 I have just joined. I am retired bench jeweler with 45 years of metal working experience. Soldering,forming,casting,etc. At the moment I am building a 1986 torpedo boat,the SMS Sperber. The hull and structures are printed but there is a lot of other metal work involved. Photo shows the rudder and skeg is made out of copper sheet. I have also cast some stanchions in 1/25 scale for the boat. paulsutcliffe, BLACK VIKING, wefalck and 13 others 16
