Hi Danny, I have to say the last few videos have been truly fantastic...Giving us normal modellers an insight to how all the important scale details are done... please keep the videos coming. I am learning lots 😊
That was a 'masterclass' episode Danny, so many valuable tips on working with lithoplate. Thank you for taking the time and trouble in producing this and indeed all your videos, they are both informative and motivational. Thanks again.
man my inner dorkism is kicking in hard, just absolutely tickled pink watching these videos! and only found my self blowing the dust off after watching you sand like 6 times 😂
Hard pieces of wood, or even dowel can be very hand for burnishing metals. Used in the trade often. Just a little at a time, being careful not the stretch or mis-shapen as you go.
Plastic modellers have a tool for bending etched brass detail parts. The bend line is partially etched (like a score line), the part is clamped to the bench under a metal block, and the flange is bent up against the block using a thin blade-like tool. Lots of videos around.
Hi Danny, Looking very nice! One thing to consider is that aluminium will expand considerably in heat (Summer...if we get one!) And the cyano will not be able to tolerate the movement and the joint could fail. I would suggest using contact adhesive or Uhu Por for attaching Litho...allowing a slightly flexible joint. Looking forward to the next installment. Steve
Thanks Steve, I have not had any problems in the past. However I have with UHU Por so would not use it in this situation. But thanks for the feedback, if it comes loose you can always say I told you so!
