Model Boats Magazine Winter Special Retour à l'édition précédente

This Special Edition of Model Boats includes a comprehensive Plan Feature for the Australian Steam Tug Wattle, which has been supplied by John Parker, plus an in depth kit review for Ranzow by Terry Small.

This 100 page issue has as its second thread, the theme of ‘Improving your Modelling Skills’ and for this there are articles on the use of Cardboard in our models by Glynn Guest; Electronics by Dave Milbourn, a well known master of the subject; Resin Casting by Dave Wooley; Metals and their uses by Richard Simpson and finally a really nice piece by Ron Rees on how to make simple homemade Hot Wire Cutters. Regular readers of Model Boats will have seen his fantastic small scale r/c models built on foam hulls, so this article makes it even easier for the model boat hobbyist to use and cut this lightweight material, something that has been common in aeromodelling for some years now.

I hope in this Special 100 Page Special issue that there is something for everyone who has a passion for radio control scale model boating and please don’t forget to visit our website (www.modelboats.co.uk) and participate in our active forum managed by Colin Bishop. In addition, Model Boats is now also on Twitter and Facebook for those readers who like to use social media.
