Mayner Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Excellent find. Traditional scratchbuilding techniques and extremely steady hands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These days I would struggle to scribe a line against a straight edge let alone use a piercing saw There is an excellent article in Model Railway Journal 279 on building a GNR(I) U Class in 3mm scale with working inside motion using basic hand tools. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Note also the freehand use of the mini-drill. No pillar vice to hold it at 90 degrees! The miniature engineering fraternity would have nightmares! Actually, there's loads of techniques in here that scratchbuilders commonly use, but very few have time, patience or inclination to film an entire YouTube video showing how they do it....
