Guess you have to bend each end point in an angle, locking position. Will join thight enough but its not a precission tool for tiny parts. Havent made it yet, Been to busy. Like the idea that its cheap and selfmade. lmagna and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Seiler Posted March 16, 2021 Share #6 Posted March 16, 2021 Ah, ship-in-a-bottle tool. I see. In that case you also need a professional bottle emptier. I volunteer. mtaylor, Canute, barkeater and 1 other 2 2 Quote Chuck Seiler San Diego Ship Modelers Guild Nautical Research Guild Current Build:: Colonial Schooner SULTANA (scratch from Model Expo Plans), Hanseatic Cog Wutender Hund, John Smith Shallop Completed: Missouri Riverboat FAR WEST (1876) Scratch, 1776 Gunboat PHILADELPHIA (Scratch 1/4 scale-Model Shipways plans) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
