Great tips on weld seams. Your technique of pressing at an angle mimics the pattern of actual welds which look like a row of nickels laying on each other.

Thank you Steve! Yes that is the perfect way to describe what the shape looks like. Wish I had thought of that for the video :)

No problem! That's actually a common welding term. I learned to weld back in the day and that's what we called it when I was learning tig welding.

This is a really well made video. I like the fact that you show the products you use, how you use them, and the results. (Important note to emphasize is the products.) My weld seems never seemed correct, and then I saw your video - voila, I was using the wrong size of plastruct. (I was using .020") Thanks a bunch. great job. Hope you keep doing vid's like this. Keep up the good work.

Great idea, Evan I would never have thought to use plastic rod, I always use putty but this looks much easier to control and gives a great result 👍👍👍

Nice video. I have used this technique for many years. What I have found is that it works better if you get a blade with the tip broken off so that the tip is flat and push into the rod. Best.

Oh, I'm sorry, you got me wrong, Evan. I used that 10 months ago. I knew that from an older German modeling magazine. Still thanks for sharing, because I think it's one the the easiest and best ways to do weld lines on models. All who didn't know it will benefit. And I must admit that my result was far from yours which really looks nice. I'm thinking of sanding my weld lines down and do them again. :)

I think you would have an easier time using Vallejo plastic putty to do this. It would definitely be worth giving this technique a try with it and seeing if you like the results.

Great vid man, that does seem to look pretty nice. I try to use Styrene as much as possible, because I loathe superglue or putty. The putty weld beads never worked for me, that stuff is just nasty. Sticks to everthing but the model.

Nice job. And if its not `Rough and Russian` welding youre going for .... wipe over the weld with fine sandpaper (when totally dry) and it will tone down a lot.

do you think it would work as well using thicker rod for larger scales?
@Panzermeister36
7 жыл бұрын
I think so. Just keep in mind that the rod will flatten out a bit and so the weld will end up wider than the initial styrene rod was.
