Report about a titanic-model in 1:100, built by Jürgen Kliewe

   The End

Althrough sounds so very easy, it takes up more than half of the entire building time,as these details or especially tricky. But here you can see the building progress week after week.
In the end I put people on the model because it looked very empty; nothing seemed to be alive. And it is the destiny of the survivors and the deaths that makes the TITANIC immortal. Without these people that I talk about, I could not imagine my model anymore. I could write more about the single working parts because that was just the telegram style and I did not mention many hints and tips. Everybody should find his own way to get to the end. The most important characteristic for that is called endurance. Talent is mentioned in the list much later. Also, expensive machinery is not always necessary, if you could have reached better results with that. Besides a mini drill machine made Proxxon and the dive etching installation, soldering iron and a fret- saw I did not need any other special tools. At some point you also have to say, " now it is the end", because you can always find something with the details; something you have not shown or something you could work over. The fun however should overweigh it.

Have fun all model builders! Perhaps display your result. Then I would put a link on my page.
