giampieroricci Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share #273 Posted November 19, 2015 thanks for your compliments and likes, friends! .......Do you clean ebony with acetone prior to gluing strakes to the frames?

RoB Shaw Posted November 19, 2015 Share #274 Posted November 19, 2015 Thank you. I understand the bond is strong without cleaning the ebony, thanks again I shall test this with scrap as I haven't had the pleasure of working with ebony yet or nightmare whichever the case may be.

mtaylor Posted November 28, 2015 Share #284 Posted November 28, 2015 Beautiful work, Giampiero. I noticed the wonderful touch of the ropes securing the chimney hood over the fireplace. That's a detail I don't think I've seen before in any build.

druxey Posted December 27, 2015 Share #299 Posted December 27, 2015 If you've used actual lead, Giampiero, might I suggest sealing it with either acrylic medium or lacquer? It will prevent the lead turning to white lead salts in a few years' time. You've done a great job on a difficult part of the build. md1400cs, mtaylor, wyz and 2 others 5 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giampieroricci Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share #300 Posted December 30, 2015 If you've used actual lead, Giampiero, might I suggest sealing it with either acrylic medium or lacquer? It will prevent the lead turning to white lead salts in a few years' time. You've done a great job on a difficult part of the build. You are right! I give a coat of clear lacquer matte finish to fix all the small scratches that inevitably are created while working on the model!
