There has been some discussion about exactly when the Great War ended - the Nov.1918 date is really only the end of one, large chunk of the hostilities. Some even suggested that the second unpleasantness is really just part two of the first. Maybe - I cant really say, but I think those who were here at that time were just about unanimous in the opinion that WWI was still going on at least in 1919. Regards, Dave Z ps - I have noticed that our list occasionally goes into an off-topic cycle, where the posts are rarely really OT and list discipline vanishes. Usually, give it a week and we cycle back into our normal mode, no harm done.

So it works that way up there as well. There's no help for us then :-( Okay, so long as we're actually talking about scratchbuilding, I've got a three questions to ask. Now if I was (for example) making an Issotta Fraschini 150hp in 1/48 I'd make an engine block part, and a cylinder block part. Each cylinder block houses two cylinders, so the engine would require 4 pieces.to get the basic structure. 1. If (just maybe) I intended to sell these engines, would you rather get the four parts separate and have to align the three cylinder pairs atop the block OR have the master constructed to give you the complete engine at some cost removing resin flash from between the cylinders? (There would be a couple more ancillary detail parts in either case) 2. When I made the Biff I was unhappy with all the Lewis guns available, so I made my own. Is there any market for a partial Lewis gun (everything from the barrel and gas cylinder back) in a baggie with some syringe tube to roll your own? 3. How about if it also included a barrel or barrels for other types - full and partial jackets, French with wood grip etc? Just interested to know what people think :-) I probably won't get time to finish until next year :-( Shane ********************************************************************** The information contained in this e-mail is confidential and is intended only for the use of the addressee(s).

You must plan the moulds carefully and choose the best silicone rubber available to cast them. It should be possible to realize simpler moulds from soft silicone for resin casting. If you want to do the same in metal things will be more complicated because you must pay special attention to air evacuation openings. Also you must preheat the moulds before casting the metal. But if you really want to go into casting you will be rewarded with a lot of fun to see your *own* parts being produced by your own work. To me that's a most satisfying part of modeling. Years ago I did some tests to see what I can realize. I did some copies of existing parts as well as self modeled parts. The parts that I copied in metal was the huge propeller of the 1/25 Airfix Ju-87 Stuka and a bumper of a Fujimi Honda S800 sportscar in 1/24. The bumpers I later polished which is looking perfect, altough the car was not build yet. I also cast some selfmodeled accessories for fantasy figures in resin. If you want I can scan you some examples and send it to you offlist. The parts are maybe "ot" but atleast you can see how I did the moulds. sincerely Gaston Graf (ggraf@vo.lu) Meet the Royal Prussian Fighter Squadron 2 "Boelcke" at: http://www.jastaboelcke.de > -----Original Message----- > From: wwi@pease1.sr.unh.edu [mailto:wwi@pease1.sr.unh.edu]On Behalf Of > Shane Weier > Sent: Sunday, October 08, 2000 1:07 PM > To: Multiple recipients of list > Subject: Making masters WAS: Gotha GI WS > > > Peter says: > > > > >>You need to borrow my three children.

Most people don't have this equipment - so you probably should just take them to a photo lab (most have digital capabilities) and have them scanned - I think it's pretty cheap.

For me, the worst part of Squadron's "in Action" series is the black and white line art. In a lot of cases the artwork conributes nothing, and contains little or no real data. A good example - in the Se5 book they show a photo of the cockpit then on the same page a badly done photo trace of the same photo. Now maybe I'm more critical than most - but please - line art like this CAN be very useful/informative/interesting/attractive. Of course the artist could be working with some ridiculous deadlines.
