Greetings everyone!

Soooo, i'm supposed to spam here as part of the anti spam protocol ?

Anyway, i started building a Star Wars fleet (already got a Naboo Fighter and an A Wing) and stumbled upon imcold's X-Wing, which really blew my mind! But sagittarius' build of said model also showed me that there is still much to learn ^^'
On David's homepage is a photo of a ring with ~4mm outher and ~3mm inner diameter. And it's cut out with almost perfect precision. I -need- to learn how to do that. :D
Therefore i started reading the First Cuts threads to find useful techniques, but soon noticed that i'm not allowed to view pictures as anon, so here i am.

Keep up the good work everyone,
cheers,
Kselia

Dear Kselia:
Welcome to the forum, as an aside there are German Bastelbogan forums on the web also. Not sure how their science fiction threads are in relation to ours. cutting circles is a problem with many ways of doing it some cheaper than others. the best thing to say is to practice many circles.
Good luck,
Miles

Hi there Kselia! Welcome to the forum. Thanks for joining. We're glad you're here. We have a fairly active group of science-fiction modelers, activity kind of comes & goes in cycles. Miles is right about circle cutting - read up on it, choose the method that seems best to you and practice, practice, practice. Welcome aboard!
