There we go! There's that straight talking, familiar voice again!! About time we heard you on your videos again. Another well informed video. Thanks Alex.
Alternate device for picking up small parts is a china marker, also called a wax pencil. You can carve the tip to any shape including a point or wedge. Inexpensive, and you don't waste your blue tack and tooth pick.
dont we all? :D yeah mate... i was just working on the kit and thought... why not? and this here on this video its not the worst part... the kit has PE parts smaller than 1 mm... :)
"meuler" is french for "grinding", or in your own Portugese ; "moer" or "triturar". Very interesting video, I'll soon be starting my first Trumpeter 1/350 ship with PE, that's why I search for videos about working with PE.
@@AlexModeling My friend, it's simply amazing that you are answering my comment on a video you posted 8 years ago ! I'm still working an an Airfix Wasa, using your one of your other videos as a guide as well btw. (even though your Wasa was a Revell kit)
Hi Alex, thank your for this very useful advisory video. Did you ever tried to use a sewing needle with opened eye for applying the super glue? In combination with a very thin type of glue it's a very precisely tool for glueing the PE-Parts. The capillary action takes place and allows you to glue parts placed close together. Thank you for sharing your video ;-)
Hello my friend!!:) i saw one of those classic 90s videos were a mig 29 was being assembled and the modeler used exactly that... i have to get one even for filling gaps... thank you so much dor commenting and for your advice... i will get one of those:)
I have a dremel at home, and i wish it was just three modes on it. I have a gauge showing the rpm's on it, and it goes somewhere from 3000 rpm to 10.000 rpm. It was really hard when i drilled out holes in balsa wood with it, even at 3000 rpm the wood would start to burn if i held it still for too long, so i had to be really quick.
kinda hard watching you eliminate those wonderful details but the end result makes it worthwhile. I really didn't hear the noise but then I'm sitting in my truck at a truckstop. does your neighbor export his wine here? if so I'll look for it
Oh Alex, the agony of seeing you sanding away all that detail on the instrument panel! If I may make a suggestion, next time you do this try doing a duplicate plate of the instrument panel with some sheet styrene and then glue the photoetch on it instead of ruining a perfect instrument panel that you could use on a different project.
+Ulisses Simionato it wasn t me who did it... a fruend of mine... but envolves lego pieces and clay to dip the piece and the placung the liquid resin on the mold... i can try and learn and then do a tutorial... muito bem lembrado amigo
Thanks for sharing. Your English is fine. Looking forward to seeing more!
I am so glad that I have discovered your series! I have learned a lot from these videos and you are helping me to be a better modeler!!
honored! Thank you for watching it! enjoy

hey buddy! Thanks
Good to see you back on youtube :) Another good tuto. Thanks Alex.
thank you Xavier
Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing! The tip with the tooth pick and blue tack was invaluable. I bet that will work with all kinds of fiddly bits. :-)
yep!! it does!!:)
Awesome tutorial brother. Thank you for taking the time to do it. Semper Fi brother
SEMPER FI!
Mr.Alex, great tutoriaal, loved it, and the best thing, the toothpick with bleutech hahahha, very clever :], god bless mine friend

I have that pencil, but I don't think it is strong as the blue tack. Keeps breaking and leaves white marks.
+Ulisses Simionato I used that same pencil... gave it away... i know its a proper tool for PE but as you said... sometimed the pieces turned white
Some good tips there. Thank you.
thank YOU for watching it!;)
Some good tips Alex. Photo etch can be so fiddly and frustrating. Many hours spent shouting at my models trying to glue pe in place :)
dont we all? :D yeah mate... i was just working on the kit and thought... why not? and this here on this video its not the worst part... the kit has PE parts smaller than 1 mm... :)
Bom trabalho Alex. Sempre que posso acompanho suas montagens e aprendo coisas novas. Um abraço do Brasil.
+paulo Emílio Costa grande abraço meu amigo. É um prazer poder partilhar! :)

+Ducesweden unfortunatly that sometimes happends with other dremmels
I basicley only use mine if i need to cut something big away, it's out in the garage and it has gone dusty as shit already. :D
Ducesweden :)
Thanks for the video!
+jose ramon delgado thank you for watching!
"Graver" means "engrave", "Couper" means "cut", "Percer" means "pierce" and "Meuler" means "sharpen".
kinda hard watching you eliminate those wonderful details but the end result makes it worthwhile. I really didn't hear the noise but then I'm sitting in my truck at a truckstop. does your neighbor export his wine here? if so I'll look for it
hy Benny... its for private consumption! and what a Red whine!!
+AlexModeling dang
Hello Alex, your tile is too heavy for handing. Check out The Small Shop cut-off set! It's great for you.
