Re: Model ships ------- Brass props castings

Greg,
excuses, excuses!
what is more important?
Food or ships?  :)
Anyway, have you ever heard of that procedure to hold odd shaped items
for drilling, tapping, machining?

Instead of "figure"?
When you have odd shaped things to hold, there is a way to do it......
It involves using very low temp casting materials like "Cerrobend", etc....
