druxey Posted November 24, 2015 Share #1231 Posted November 24, 2015 Good to read of Judy recovering. Making hinges on a snowy day is good therapy as well. They look terrific. I have some miniature burrs that I use as countersinks. Do you have such things? avsjerome2003, Jack12477, michael mott and 6 others 9 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...
michael mott Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share #1232 Posted November 24, 2015 Thanks everyone. Druxey I had not thought of burs probably because they really have not been part of my modelwork tool chest agency. I shall have to look into what is available from the jewelers tool shop in Edmonton when I have a few pennies to spare. I do have a Dremel with a flex shaft, but mostly it never occurs to me to use it. Perhaps I should do a bit of out of the box thinking and plug it in occasionally. PS it is still snowing traffic is evidently rather snarly in Edmonton till this system passes.

michael mott Posted November 25, 2015 Author Share #1234 Posted November 25, 2015 Again Thanks for all the positive support and likes. I mounted the hinges today first on the ridge. small awl first made a location for the drill and then drilled with the #68 drill mounted in a pin chuck to drill the holes then one of the rivets pushed home. Once all the hinges were mounted I used tiny drops of thicker ACC glue Gorilla brand to temporarily hold the hinges onto the lights I will wait till the morning before opening them to add the rivets to them once they have set. The blue tape is just to hold them overnight from sliding until the glue completely hardens.

michael mott Posted November 26, 2015 Author Share #1244 Posted November 26, 2015 Thanks for all the positive comments and likes they are really appreciated. I just got home from the Hospital, Judy is improving. This morning i had a little time before heading into Edmonton to work on the skylight. I created a crude jig on a sheet of paper with a couple of blocks stuck down with some masking tape. This was to enable working on the light while temporarily attached with the glue. When the lights were opened up one of the temporary glue joints let go so I started the hole drilling with the hinge that was still glued to ensure that the position of the light remained fixed relative to the ridge and central divider between the lights. Because of the set up angle I was able to drill the holes for the rivets in the lights. The rivets were pressed in and then glued with some thin Acc glue After completing the lights on the first side I set it up to see how they looked......not good they did not sit down fully This was one of those moments that had intuitively crossed my mind earlier when making the slots for the hinges in the top ridge. one of the thoughts was to set the hinges into the ridge the full depth of the folded hinge to eliminate the hassle of getting the notches perfect on the lights. It also allowed the lights to seat up fully well almost fully to the ridge. The thing that I had completely failed to really understand was the minute amount of the rivet heads was enough to prevent the hinges from fully closing....what to do? the hinges were set with pins and glued. I decided to deal with this later and made a change with the second side. The change involved setting up the lights so that the hinges could be mounted so that from the top when the light were closed thee looked clean, but that they would be slightly open underneath to allow for the heads. The second side was drilled as the first side and the countersinks were made just a little larger then the hinges were unglued with a number 11 blade after marking their positions. Then using the jewelers saw I cut them back at an angle from the topside to the bottom side. then using the #11 I removed the slight wedge and cleaned it up with a needle file. The next pic shows the one on the right has been modified and the one on the left is next to be done. After fitting the first one and testing it to see if my fix would work I was satisfied that it would. Then completed the second one, all that remains is to un-glue the well glued ones that I did first. the next pic shows the lights seated down fully on the second set. Moral of the story... do a test first! but then you all knew that didn't you Michael Jack12477, avsjerome2003, PeteB and 30 others 33 Quote Current builds Bristol Pilot Cutter 1:8; Skipjack 19 foot Launch 1:8; Herreshoff Buzzards Bay 14 1:8 Other projects Pilot Cutter 1:500 ; Maria, 1:2 Now just a memory Future model Gill Smith Catboat Pauline 1:8 Finished projects A Bassett Lowke steamship Albertic 1:100 Anything you can imagine is possible, when you put your mind to it.

michael mott Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share #1254 Posted December 23, 2015 Thanks everyone for your well wishes for Judy. All is well now. I have to hunt through my scraps of thin lexan for the "glass" in the skylights, I did have some 1/16th cell-cast acrylic that was left over from some architectural models. The interesting thing about cell-cast is because of the nature of the manufacture it is not super consistently even as far as thickness goes varying about 25 thousands over the sheet in random ways. we used to call it thick or thin whatever the main denomination was. The reason I used the cell cast is because It cut much more cleanly without gumming or fracturing the way the extruded acrylic did. So I need to find a bit of thin 1/16th failing that I will buy some new 1.5mm lexan Michael Twister, Omega1234, canoe21 and 5 others 8 Quote Current builds Bristol Pilot Cutter 1:8; Skipjack 19 foot Launch 1:8; Herreshoff Buzzards Bay 14 1:8 Other projects Pilot Cutter 1:500 ; Maria, 1:2 Now just a memory Future model Gill Smith Catboat Pauline 1:8 Finished projects A Bassett Lowke steamship Albertic 1:100 Anything you can imagine is possible, when you put your mind to it.

chippy Posted December 23, 2015 Share #1256 Posted December 23, 2015 Hi Michael Pleased to hear your good lady is on the mend and will be home for Christmas. I'm don't know what lexon is but for for my windows I use a CD case. I make the windows with a front and back which are identical then make a ply piece which will go between these two which is cut out slightly larger than the window apertures and left open at the top, this allows for the clear plastic to be slid down between the inner and outer sheet. One big advantage of this particularly on wheelhouses is that the whole thing can be painted or stained without getting it on the plastic, it also rules out having to glue them in and avoids the risk of fogging. To both of you and anyone else who reads this Rosemary and I wish you all a very happy Christmas and a fantastic New Year..............Happy building and sailing in 2016. Mike.
