I only "like your words because it marks, however brief, your return. Your presence has been missed in many ways. But always with understanding. I'm glad to hear you are all able to shoulder this incredible burden. But don't dismiss sadness as a weakness as it is as needed as copeing. However long you need to regain some sort of order back is never too long. As you will always be welcomed back with glad heart and open arms. Don't over do the self therapy. And loose yourself in the process. As with all thing my friend, moderation. And don't dismiss those places and things you shared. As that is how she will remain with you all. In your hearts. As someone not forgotten is never truly gone. Just not quite so close. The days and weeks ahead will be rough for all. But you will come through the other side. And while it's wonderful to hear from you. I'm sure in time you'll return as a regular steadying comrade in arms as it were. And you have a beautiful song to treasure along with all the good times. Least of which were the coming of your two children, who will be able to pick you up if you stumble upon this hardest of roads. The flags will raise tonight in honour of your return and in memory of your loss. Return soon my friend. But in your own time. And in your own way.

If it's any help I've found if soldering parts like this repeat her than doing two separate part make a "U" shaped piece then you can solder both at once without needing to hold three things then trim to right size after. Also I found washing soldered parts under the hottest water possible 70-80 degree C straight away washes the flux of with out scrubbing and save corrosion.

NenadM Posted June 20, 2015 Author Share #2250 Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Day full of work therapy of every kind. First daily shopping, and coffee with my mother in law. Then my car suddenly turned to F-16 with afterburner on ... what a heck ... exhaust died ... ok, go to service ... 30 $ fly as a bird ... Coming home, I noticed both cherry trees in yard get proper carmine -purple color of cherries, and realized that today is "cherry day" and start to pick cherries. Some from terrace under garage ( my phone surrvives fallin down from my pocket from 4m high !?!), some from grass, some by ladder. Never more of them and never better. Some on top of tree I just can not reach - I still do not know to fly Then - wash them, clean them, dry them, and pack for deep freeze Lunch, little nap, finished cleaning house, and evening come, time for Her Majesty. (Still not in the mood for socializing with friends) Considering I do not have luck with 0,5 wire, I decided to try opposite way - to solder 1mm wire to 1mm wire, and to fit it and thin it after soldering And that was success I concluded watching C-plans that hocks on whiskers are, if you want to make them in scale - less than 0,5 mm, and that is impossible to turn any rope through them. Also if I ( with magic wound) make them so small, they will be invisible. Look at next picture with C-plans under, ruller and my whisker So, having in mind that I want hocks visible, I decided to enlarge them "a little", also to enlarge space between hocks for 1mm. Obviously, some details just have to be enlarged. Ropes, for instance. As I see watching photos of dead eyes, ropes between two lines od dead eyes are max 2cm dia. In my scale 1:100, they have to be 0,2 mm dia. As a hair. I think nobody can do that, and nobody did that Now, I have to search on MSW to find where I was reading about weathering brass Edited June 20, 2015 by Nenad Mirabell61, mtaylor, keelhauled and 9 others 12 Quote In progress: CUTTY SARK - Tehnodidakta => scratch => Campbell plans http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/2501-cutty-sark-by-nenad-tehnodidakta-scratched-campbells-plans/page-1#entry64653 Content of log : http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/2501-cutty-sark-by-nenad-tehnodidakta-scratched-campbells-plans/page-62#entry217381 Past build: Stella, Heller kit, plastic, Santa Maria, Tehnodidakta kit, wood, Jolly Roger Heller kit, plastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
