Bandsaw Steve Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Great mini tutorial on how to use blue-stuff. Very clearly explained. I can see me using some of this at some point not too far away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha Thanks for the nice comment. The problem is that I tend to work in short bursts, followed by extended periods of inactivity, where I'm planning how I'll tackle the next problem. So a project can drag on forever. My last model took something like 19 months. It can be hard to sustain interest without getting distracted by ideas for 100 other models I'd like to build. 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a bunch of youtube videos showing how to use it as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_holtslander Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I hadn't heard of blue stuff either but after seeing this video I immediately went and bought some. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photon Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 Just about done... Some small details to add, maybe another weathering pass and then bodge together some kind of display case. I'm pleased with how it came together. My only regret is allowing a few problems along the way grind me to a halt. Here's the original Ron Cobb drawing: Thanks for your patience and continued interest. I feel bad the build was so protracted. I have a couple model ideas I'm dying to get stared on.
