Re: A question of scale

Actually if you're going with resin, you could cast the walls and floors
in open
face moulds and then sandwich them together for the finished wall.  The
floors
could also be done that way.  Doing it this way you could also make it
somewhat
modular so that you could use your scoutship modules as part of your
destroyer,
and avoid a repetition of effort.

Now doing a multi-level ship could be loads of fun.  :-)

Just trying to "help".	:-)

Wait until I actually _start_ the project before accusing me of that
sin.  Idle thoughts are cheap, actually doign something about them is
the real problem.  :-)

Thanks.  Actually, if I do take on such a project, I migth start with a
scoutship first.  It would be good practice, and maybe I coudl start
making some reusable parts to cast in resin...	Hmmm, ideas filling my
brain as we speak...
