Here is a video that just came out about "Oil Canning" on ships and Battleship New Jersey in particular. The curator is explaining what causes it and shows it behind him in the hull.

Got these upgrades from Sprue Bros when they restocked on them. Was a lot cheaper than it would have been coming direct.

Cut and chop. Looking good, just take your time and don't rush it.

Believe it or not, I use the BSI CA glues. I use both the thin and the medium thickness. I also will mix them together by placing a drop each on an old sapphire watch crystal and mixing them. I also use the CA that Hobby Lobby sells which is a different formulation than the BSI brand. I have...
