Lovely results, Dennis, and it's great to see you building again. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the graft doing its job, and doing it quickly for you!

That is a superb photo.

I knew you would have no problem with this one - you're doing your usual cracking job! You're giving me the confidence I need for my build 😁.

Superb!

Here's a pretty good article on the subject, even if the advice comes down to "it depends" - at least they're honest about the trial and error aspect of the process. Anyway, it's a start, and I hope it helps: https://www.anycubic.com/blogs/3d-printing-guides/how-long-to-cure-resin-prints

Following along with this one - I have another version of this kit (all greys) and want to see how you handle this one. I have no doubt you'll do it justice.

They're so mean! 🤣 Have a great time, Bill.

Lucky Varnish used to be great some years ago, but now - for me - is sufficiently bad that I actually threw it away. Winsor & Newton Galeria Matt varnish is consistent, and thins with water or IPA. Never had a problem with it.

Add me to the list of those following, please! I've been eyeing up this kit in its offered form, and I just know this thread will continue to be a mine of technique and information.

That is a beautiful build! Can't say enough good things about it.

Welcome, Sooty!

I wish you both all the best - hope the day went without a hitch. Beautiful work on the ring box!

There's a great article on this subject by @Paul Lucas in his Colour Conundrums column in the October 2023 issue of Scale Aircraft Modelling.

So sorry for your loss, Peter.
