caymin last Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) This is something I designed and built from scratch a few years ago, for a company I am involved with. It showcases a new system for securing and maintaining seawalls all done from the water side. It is used as a tool at trade shows to explain how it all works. I have since built a second model for the golf course division The plexiglass cover was removed for taking pics, the base is 24"x 36".

Eshaver Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Pauli, maybe i'm missing something here as I am involved myself with exibits and archectural models and the like here but what exactly are you trying to convey here ? The model looks nice , I just don't see the end result . Ed Shaver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caymin last Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Thanks Ed and Dave, sorry for the bad views in the pics. I added some worker figures and a scale model of the Hydraulic power unit we use to the model, but I'm still looking for the cd with the photo's. The concept is driving a 14' stainless 'screw' into the earth and a bolster plate is drawn up against the surface to anchor the seawall, as apposed to the standard 'deadman' anchoring method, here is a link that will explain better, http://www.dsms1.com/ Click on 'how it works to see the model with workers ect. I recently started to build a scale shop to use as a backdrop for some of my vehicle builds. And a few details, a vice using styrene.

Eshaver Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Pauli the second group of pictures , wow ! What scale is the vice and the figures and the rest of the tools ? If they are 1-24-5th scale who makes them , you ? I enjoyed seeing that stuff. In fact it would look nice with anything Ive done to date , ex ( Amoco Projek ) .

Ed Shaver I must say, your Amoco project, looks real sharp. The vise and some other tools and things I made are for my 1/10 scale shop, to be honest it's been a while since I made anything smaller than 1/18th. I have are four or five 1/25 kits i have not yet built, I picked up a Revell Jeep Rubicon kit at a thrift store, NIB for eight bucks, that will be my next build. Here is one of the latest pics of my scale shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
