channell Posted August 7, 2013 #5 Posted August 7, 2013 I built an Academy? Titanic maybe 20 years ago; I used very thin gauge (straight) wire for the rigging and guywires on the funnels... the kind you can buy at the hobby store. It is much easier and gives a better result than the crappy kit line. Quote
