Afternoon all.

While waiting for the tracks I decided to make up some wooden rocket boxes. Using the .8 Bass Wood as the material and some 4 ply twisted cotton with a finger smoothing in some CA. Doing that gets rid of any fluff on the cotton and also binds the thread.

"They're really rather good Comrade!!"

Here endeth the comment!

Seriously though, they look very, very good indeed. Love the idea of using CA to smooth it out...... How do you stop the CA sticking your fingers to it? I have found water or washing up liquid works fine but leaves the hard set white CA residue on your fingers and thumbs....
 
With a little stain and or 4BO and some "Rooskie" stenciling......pure genius. :thumb2: Rick H.

Andrew having a bit of CA on a finger and thumb is nothing to what I had at work ! I rubbed it down the thread quickly and just wiped the finger and thumb on a cloth. The dry residue just comes off with a finger nail as its so thin.

Good suggestions Rich, I've got some small Russian stencils that our good friends Allen and Fernando kindly sent me some time ago after they had been to a show.

Super job John.
Thanks Tim, more fun than bloody plastic tracks !

Hi John
Those ammo boxes look good. Must be your background in working with wood.
 
Pyro,
Sorry man I'm just catching up here, serves me right for blinking my eyes after your KV2 endeavor. Geez you're like a Marine charging up Mount Suribachi lol !
Well heck, concession stand was closed so I'll just stand in the back here with Rick H. And keep a lookout for.... say, who is Matron anyway? Is that like Nurse Ratched ?
