korablik1979 Posted February 5, 2014 Author Share #31 Posted February 5, 2014 Hi Janos . The tool I have the most common . I use like this . The smallest self-made cutters . They resharpen of sewing needles . They became good shape and very fit. They are very easy to alter. Electric carving tool when not use. I tried it with carving figurines lady for " Druid ". Even good at. But it is very dangerous. You can spoil , so then they stopped working. I do not know how to properly called in English , in Russian it is called BOR . like this will be clearer : They tried. Now sometimes use them too , but manually. Here it is: The smallest veins and lines are very easy to do . Leo does not polished . There's only work with knives and chisels . And the first job with the " Druid " polished , but not paper, and this . This conventional sawing and bafiki polish. They loved me . There are solid , there are soft . My wife works in a nail service . Once asked her to try and loved it. Use them not only in the thread , but also in other work with the model. Thanks for the tip about the oil. I'll try. I do not have much experience. Tung bought , tried on different wood species . Loved it. Therefore, they use them. If you lived closer I would share with you a sample . It is very good that you can choose a lot of good oil.

NMBROOK Posted March 1, 2014 Share #36 Posted March 1, 2014 I would advise the client not to fit it until the end of the build!! All that work and it gets caught whilst doing the rigging would be devastating.

Все, что работа, и она попадает в то время как делать фальсификации будет иметь разрушительные последствия. С наилучшими пожеланиями Найджел I do not know if I've translated and understood your words. If I wrote an answer wrong, I apologize. Master, for which I made this thread young. He is 21 year. But he was already an experienced master and I'm sure he knows how to do the installation. Thanks for your advice, I will tell him. I do not know whether his model masts and rigging.

And what is the size of the rooster? Janos Thank you, Janos. Praise from a master like you means a lot to me. Tree for this work is an apple tree, but it was blank much darker than the one from which I used to do a lion. Oil covered. Here, too, tung. Dimensions I will show later.

korablik1979 Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share #54 Posted March 4, 2014 As promised a sequel to the last few threads. This openwork inset Here was the difficulty. Part thickness only 2.8 mm, and the thread must be on both sides. Therefore, in areas of thinning turned very small thickness. And item several times I broke during operation. I had to find a way out of the problem. Did so: the item consists of two halves. They became even thinner, but now they can be glued drops of glue on the bar and do as a bas-relief carving. And then glue it all together. Easy! Maybe someone is handy.

korablik1979 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share #56 Posted March 5, 2014 Alex This is the problem when a material is cherry or similar - it breaks easily in small cross sectional areas. European Boxwood would cope with this with no problem, although the South American Boxwood (Costello) would probably brake the same way. Of course you can't go for the same material every time because of the necessary colour contrast, so you have to deal with the consequences. I sometimes manage to repair the breakage with a small wooden dowel and carpenter glue, but even with the most careful repair would leave a small break line visible (as I have now on the forearm of my top-left-man's hand on the Britannia carving ). If this is not acceptable, there is no other way just to start again. I went too far with the figure, so I just left it - and it is visible Your scroll carving is as excellent as the in-the-round rooster! Janos Thank you very much for your advice , Janos . With boxwood I never worked . I even did not keep his hands before. We have this tree is not often seen . Belgorod city and a small wood for carving here is not for sale . Yesterday I received a parcel from a friend in Moscow. He gave me a gift . Little wood for carving . And there were two bars of boxwood . They are not large, only for small figurines . But I am very happy that I met with this tree . One day I 'll cut something out of it . Thanks for the advice about repairs. I, too, there are moments when I decide what can be repaired . For example with a lion and was sent when a mistake on the board .At this time, not repair for several reasons. 1 very thin dimensions , and still had to cut a lot ahead. Therefore, the place of breakage is likely again be broken. I also realized that can easily go wrong , and in other places. 2 - You have probably noticed that the first attempt I made with butter. As I have already used . Oil helps with thread , I have already written . But now it spoils the contrary , because the details are not oiled glue well . If you look at the pictures with thread on one half , you'll notice that this time I did not use oil. Covered only at the end where the two halves are glued together, and processed. Now for me to have the experience and that different situations need different approach to work . janos and Jeronimo 2 Quote Sincerely, Alexander Commissioned carved workSamples of my work: Carving from Belgorod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
