BobG Posted March 10, 2020 Share #32 Posted March 10, 2020 Sounds awesome, Dave. My brother and sister-in-law have a house on a lake in northern Wisconsin and their are lots of Bald Eagles there. Some of the nests are enormous. I guess they just keep adding to them year after year until they get too heavy and fall down. Duanelaker 1 Quote Bob Garcia "Measure once, cuss twice!"

BobG Posted March 12, 2020 Share #34 Posted March 12, 2020 Well after watching you build this cool model and seeing all the other kits you have, I got the itch and went browsing on eBay and ended up buying this Corel Wasa Sezione Armata (Wasa Battle Station). I'm impressed with the quality of the materials and the extensive plans and instructions. I've only glanced over them but they look good. Not sure when I'll start building it. I want to finish my Medway Longboat first. But, then again, maybe I should try having several builds going at once. 🤔 I really don't need another kit at the moment but I couldn't resist this one because it's so different. It's your fault that I broke down and bought it you know... 😎 VTHokiEE, Duanelaker and EricWilliamMarshall 3 Quote Bob Garcia "Measure once, cuss twice!"

wefalck Posted March 12, 2020 Share #35 Posted March 12, 2020 A bit further up you asked about that vertical stick the seaman is holding with his hands and I don't think the question has been answered yet. This thing is a 'Kolderstock' in German/Dutch and 'whipstaff' in English. It acts as a kind of fulcrum for the actual helm on the rudder. The staff rests in an olive-shape bearing in the deck: From: http://www.sailingace.com/segellexikon/d/kolderstock/kolderstock.htm Well into the 19th century the steering wheel was not all the common and used only on large vessels. Smaller vessels were steered with the helm directly, often aided by tackles. The kolderstock went out of use towards the end of the 17th century. I gather this vignette is meant to depict a part of the Brandenburg frigate BERLIN. The elector of Brandenburg started to build up a considerable fleet in the 17th century using Dutch know-how. 'Ponte' is Italian and just means 'deck' or perhaps here 'poop'. Perhaps you may want to change the title of your thread accordingly. Looking forward to progress on that nice vignette.

When I searched for what ‘Ponte’ meant it was defined as “bridge”, would that be correct as well? this kit does represent the ship you mention, I have the full-size as well and noticed that the plans differ as far as railing height, as well as an additional rail by the stairs being shown. i finished the cabinet with the compass and the candle in it. I still have to paint and stain. hexnut, GrandpaPhil, EricWilliamMarshall and 1 other 4 Quote David Builds in Progress: Phantom Pilot Boat - MS Completed Builds: Bounty Jolly Boat - AL Chesapeake Bay Crabbing Skiff - MW Grand Banks Dory - Bluejacket The Dinghy - MW Grand Banks Dory - MW 32 Pound Carronade - MS Skiff - MW Peterboro Canoe - MW On Hold: 18th-Century Merchantman Half-Hull - NRG Ponte Berlin - Corel Taurus Steam Towboat - MS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wefalck Posted March 13, 2020 Share #38 Posted March 13, 2020 Of course, 'ponte' in Italian means 'bridge' as in e.g. Ponte Rialto. It also means the 'bridge' on ships. I don't know the etymology of the Italian word 'ponte' in a maritime sense, but it means any structure build over something, including scaffoldings. On the galleys of old a bridge-like structure run across the rowing benches, which later may have developed into a full deck on sailing ships. In any case the word is used for 'deck' in Italian.

tkay11 Posted March 13, 2020 Share #39 Posted March 13, 2020 Latin 'pons' = bridge. This has many ramifications in Europe including, interestingly, 'pontificate' which came from 'pontifex' which itself was made up from the words meaning 'make' and 'bridge'. But to 'pontificate' now means 'acting like a pope' and has entirely lost its inherent suggestion of 'making a bridge between people'. That's me done pontificating for the morning.

BobG Posted March 15, 2020 Share #42 Posted March 15, 2020 Do you have to prime that cast metal you see in so many older kits before painting it? I've never worked with it yet.

wefalck Posted March 15, 2020 Share #43 Posted March 15, 2020 I would assume this is white metal. I have thoroughly decreased it with acetone and then spray-painted it with acrylics without a problem. Railway modelers tend to use an etching primer, but they handle their models. If you just install the part and don't touch it afterwards, you probably get away without priming.

I looked up white metal to see what it is made from and found this on Wikipedia: "A white metal alloy may include antimony, tin, lead, cadmium, bismuth, and zinc (some of which are quite toxic). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_metal Is it wise to take precautions when working with it?

wefalck Posted March 15, 2020 Share #45 Posted March 15, 2020 As a matter of fact, there may be various types of alloys behind what people use as 'white metal'. Today Cd-free versions are common. The composition determines the melting point and the viscosity of the molten alloy, hence the capability or otherwise to fill fine parts of the mold. Unless you are going to work with it on an industrial scale, I would not be too concerned. Depends also what you mean by 'working with it'. Just handling ist not a problem and presumably you would wash your hands anyway, when you get out of your workshop. If you grind or file it to any large extent, perhaps a dust mask might be a good idea, but really only, when you generate a lot of fine dust that could be inhaled.

Duanelaker Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share #46 Posted March 15, 2020 I’m not sure how old this kit is, but there was a lot of dust in the bag of metal fittings...I also noticed it seems there might be two types of this “white metal” as they have oxidized differently.

BobG Posted March 15, 2020 Share #47 Posted March 15, 2020 I'd be careful with that dust especially, Dave. Wear a good mask when doing any sanding. Wefalck says you can use acetone to help clean up white metal. I'd try that also. Quote Bob Garcia "Measure once, cuss twice!"

wefalck Posted March 16, 2020 Share #48 Posted March 16, 2020 This looks like the dreaded lead-corrosion, which is why museums ban its use in new models. Be cautious when mopping it up, not to inhale the dust. It would also be better not to use the affected parts. If you have the possibility, make a mold and copy them in resin.

Wouldn't it be ok to wear a mask and some disposable latex gloves to carefully get rid of the dust and clean it up with acetone before painting? The paint would seal the metal. I live in a house that was built in 1942 and, when we bought it many years ago, a lot of the moldings, doors and window sills and frames were in poor shape. They were cracked and chipped and coated with many layers of old paint. I tested a deep, chipped area and it indicated lead paint under some of the more recent layers of paint. I decided not to sand these surfaces to prevent creating some lead dust. So I filled the cracks and chipped areas with filler and covered the woodwork with a couple of coats of primer. Then I lightly sanded the primer without sanding through it... just enough to get a really nice, smooth surface. Finally, I top coated the primer with latex enamel which sealed everything. I tested it in several places and no lead was detected. So I think it would be reasonable to paint over the white metal and it would then be safe too.

wefalck Posted March 16, 2020 Share #50 Posted March 16, 2020 There are two issues: not to spread the lead carbonate dust and to stop further corrosion. Just mop up the dust wet, not dry. Covering the lead parts in an impervious layer of paint may help, but there is no guarantee. A dry atmosphere helps. Avoid all acids.
