Yipes...wish I had seen this vid before tackling the tiny pair of lights on the front mudguards of my EMHAR Bedford recovery truck. Used silver glitter in the lamp cases before before applying lenses with T extra thin. Got the sparkle but the inverted drill bit punched foil would have been better! Used thin silver foil for the headlamps, but could have been better if I had used sequins that have a hole in the centre which looks like the bulb. We live and learn!

A variation of the razor saw is to use those etched saw blades (mine are by Airwaves).....have the advantage of even finer teeth and small size to get into hard to reach areas

Get the vernier calliper with a digital readout…
@ModellingWeekly

Decent digital callipers are very good I agree, but they can be extremely pricey compared to a traditional calliper with a Vernier gauge - the one I have in the video is a fantastic mitutoyo example with accuracy down to 0.02mm
@davidtomlinson4066
7 ай бұрын
Your mitutoyo vernier is an engineers precision grade, and needs a lot of practice to read accurately, this quality is not needed for modelling and is very expensive to buy. A good quality digital vernier is not as expensive and is easy to read, perfect for ‘ordinary folk’ (my wife uses one to check her knitting needle sizes)
@ModellingWeekly

@@davidtomlinson4066 fair enough. I personally just enjoy the reliability and precision of a traditional caliper with a vernier gauge (which I'd argue is perfectly easy to read after a few minutes of practice), but I totally get your point that for the majority of people a cheap digital caliper is perfectly fine 👍

When using the wet pallet how does one keep from putting a hole in the baking paper?
@ModellingWeekly
Жыл бұрын
Its basically down to just being careful with how much pressure and liquid you put in one focussed spot for a while - in my experience, I've only really developed holes when I've been painting for over an hour using the same paint repeatedly from the same spot on the paper
