More Product Details

Bending ship model planking strips before assembly eliminates complicated clamping fixtures, saves time and money due to broken planks and assures neat, tight fitting joints.

How it works: one row of adjustable nylon formers are arranged to the shape of the bend you need. Planks are then soaked in hot water for several minutes to make them pliable. Then they're placed against the first row of formers. The second row of formers is then slid up against the planks to hold them tightly in place. Remove the planks when they're dry. They'll be permanently formed to your predetermined curve. Form up to 5 planks at a time by stacking one atop the other as shown.

Made of water resistant acrylic with 10 nylon formers and cap nuts, zinc plated screws and no-slip silicone rubber feet.

Approx. 5 inches x 5 inches with 1 inch high nylon formers.

Great tool!

Good quality foam clay

Unlike any air dry clay I've used .
Very easy to manipulate , doesn't stick to your fingers .
Can be made into paper thin sheets that hold their shape .

Thick sections will take well over 24 hours to dry out ; high water weight when fresh .
Evaporation slows down considerably once the outer " crust " dries on thick pieces .

After 24 hours @ 78 degrees and about 60% humidity , the 3.1 gram sample I experimented with weighs 1.2 grams .
.. and after 48 hrs weighs just 1/2 gram ,, and I don't think it's fully dry yet .

Definitely worth the price .
Very versatile .

My only complaint is the bag it comes in .
It is a zipper lock bag but you need to remove a fair amount of the product before you'll be able to engage the zipper .
It's stuffed full when new .
I fit the bag into a plastic container ( Folgers coffee 43.5oz can ) with an inch of water at the bottom to ensure it doesn't dry out until I use enough to be able to close the bag .
Most likely keep it in that can regardless , just to be safe .
