I have been absent for a while from my workshop ... usual stuff - rush of jobs in office, and early spring in the home yard, first grass cutting, cleaning flower alleys and alpinetums, Yuka war etc etc

 

At first I wan to say a big thank you to you all for your very nice words and supporting for my trip to the devil`s line of my micro work attempts

 

Now,it seems to be a time for next challenge - fire buckets

 

Some photos

I could not find photo representing detail where front entrance of deck cabin meets handrail and base plate, so I have to improvise, considering in mind that mast is near, and it will mask eventually missing detail

Hi Nenad

 

The buckets will not be easy to make from wood. If your ship is not meant as a floating model, you could make them out of cardboard. It`s the easiest (and cheapest) way to do it.

Fooling around? I would say it fits! To make a bucket at this size is true hard work to do, you made it well. Keep it on!

Ok, Spice flows again, working ants also running on my bench, patience is ... hmmm ... almost here ... glass of fine red wine, nice music ...

 

Basement for buckets done

 

And buckets, this time in scale

 

post-4738-0-65100400-1459972127_thumb.jpg

 

post-4738-0-74538300-1459972154_thumb.jpg

 

You can see that bucket I made yesterday is not in scale, even been made as miniature, and it is almost doubled against new one which is in scale

 

Which leads to conclusion: New buckets are 2-2,5 mm dia, and it is so small to even try to make ring arround. Rope -maybe

 

And which shows how hudge one milimeter can be. Old bucket has 3mm dia, only one mm more

 

1:100 is to much small scale for such a details to be more detailed. Some points have to be just signed

 

Buckets are made from BBQ toothpicks 2,5-3mm dia, glued in hole, and drilled after carefull with Dremell. Bucket's holding rope will be mounted at the end, when I found adequate material for this (cca 1/4mm)

Hi Nenad

 

For the rope on your buckets have you thought about some fine electrical copper wire.

 

Denis.

I think this is only solution, Denis.

You read my mind Denis. You are right. My smallest drill is 0,5 mm, but I think there is no point to make details which can be seen only by microscope. 0,5 mm knot ? Don't think so. Even ants can not see them ;)

 

Another glass of red wine, and little pillars for hand-hold rail done. BBQ strips again

Hi Nenad

 

Great work on the buckets. I love 'em.

 

What's even more, is the fact that your whole outlook to building Her Majesty is inspiring. Never give up. Just give it a go. Try, try and try again. Success will come.

 

I love that attitude.

 

Cheers

 

Patrick
