Card buildings mania

[Jerry Howlett]

Thanks Jerry, I am able to get 1mm card from a local Newsagent and for building I used to use Sticky Craft Glue but I am interested in doing a bit of experimenting with glues.

You'll be smoking and into hard liquor next !!

Good luck and feel free to ask what we think of any model you are considering buying (thats the royal we).

Jerry,
How easy was the ship to build?
Have looked at it several times but not plucked up the courage to try it yet.
Started the Smart models War Memorial and then managed to loose half the bits I printed out.

That sounds familiar, we are not related are we   

cheers John.

We should start a club , who actually finished the Smart models war memorial ?.com 

The ship was easier but do not attempt to build the stairs between decks use plastic stairs or you will end up in an asylum of your choice.

Jerry,
Are the ship stairs worse than the signal box ones?

When I cut my parts out,each sheet I print and cut goes in it's own box or container,I then print all the sheets again but don't cut them out,this gives me a reference as to what sheet the parts are out of,dunno if this makes any sense to anyone else though.

It also means if I want just one part because of a mistake I use one of the pre printed sheets.

Makes perfect sense to me , but then I would use the extra printed sheets to make another model !.

Ship stairs are as bad as the signal box but there are 4 sets of them   Hence I used plastic ready made ones bought from Squires.
