KeithAug Posted July 29 #308 Posted July 29 lovely job on the navigation lights and buckets Valeriy. I had to magnify the buckets to see how you had done the handle connection.

However, somehow I don't see the the two chain-wheels, that should have depressions for the chain-links ... There are recesses there, but until I decided on the size of the chain, I did not make them too deep. Later, when I have a ready chain, I will make a slot to the required depth.
