Hello deckape, Mike, Don and Ted thanks for your encouragement for this new project.


Ted the life rafts are made with the same system I used to make jackets. I have used copper wire of 0.8 mm thick and the I wound on two nails 2mm thick so as to make the spirals. Then I cut the spirals and joined the ends. Once colored with the colors more suitable to the model here is ready the raft.
