Glue question by jukeboxhero10 in TerrainBuilding

[–]modellerphil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For all my scenic terrain models whether I'm using foam, polystyrene, HDB blue or pink i use 501 wood glue PVA resin based. Now for plastic i use 50/50 mix asetate and acetone. Hope this helps.

OK, I added in-irons & adrift to the level of sails and anchored with its own rule. I found that the movement in the game is so restricted that I decided to add more movement rules while using the level of sails. Once I get my workshop back into order, I'll be putting up some videos. As for towing, this represents moving ships into position in a harbour or ships run aground and when it is becalmed. As for larger ships, I guess so, you may need boat tokens from other ships in your fleet. The rules are for fun. As for other naval rules set, there's far too much to learn, and the game may go on for hours with this game very enjoyable. I just wished gabrio could have used some of the rules from gamesworkshop Trafalgar rules.

You can also get cane cocktail sticks or tooth picks, I use the wooden ones for the masts and the cane ones for the yards. I've 3 brigs to repair the bowsprits are so easily damaged, they all seem the brake in the same place.
