Wonderfull work you doI sized my plans down to 1/72 - without a mill it is complex to stand such a great scale challance!

Take care!

then prepared the tool, converted from an old saw blade and molded with a small disk,  for the course that I started to fix

Beautiful work Giampiero. I Have a question about the quote above, how you made the tools from the old saw blades. You formed it with a disk? Like a disk attached to a dremel or something similar? I do not quite understand..  And how often do you have to run over the material with your tool before it is in its final shape?

 

Hope you have the time to answer some day:)

That is a beautiful base that compliments the model perfectly.
