Ultimate Imperial Playset Project !! - Wednesday, January 26, 2011


Am embarking on my first Lightbox project in years. This will be more on the lines of a Playset then a Diorama.
Besides a Lightbox I'm adding Lighted Columns and what I call Half-Rounds.
Presently the work is on Home Made Jigs to cut slots in PVC pipe. It is a trial and (lotsa)error process.
Will be presenting pics (less the blood) of the Chaos at the Imperial Shipyards Forum time to time.

Still Hammer'n at it !! - Saturday, September 19, 2009

After much experimenting and practice (and creating lotsa scrap wood) I think I have this Bar thing down.
Wood turning is an art and even though I have a Lathe. Much experience I did not have. But the Vessels "Turned" out quite well I think.
Another thing I plan to try is a Video Tutorial. This also might take some time to get a grip on but I'll get something up as soon as I come up with something not too Embarrassing..
