U.S.S. Cairo Model Rudders

click

Not the best picture but it shows the tiny little holes I drilled in two round toothpicks to complete my custom rudders. The kit came with a small piece of wood to be cut in half and glued directly to the hull. NOT. Ugly and not to scale so I made this two up. I will not tell you how many stupid little toothpicks bit the dust. Holding the drill bit steady and gluing tiny items is challenging nowdays.Those of you who I know personally should appreciate this great feat! Those of you whom I have never met just take my word for it – this is a big deal.

  1. Yes I will put them up in flicker soon if you would like. I warn that this is my first wood model. I also did not use the deck belt rails as they are not present on t he only picture of the cairo. My model is almost done it looks ok but it is by no means a work of art :). Will Post pics soon if you all promise not to laugh!
