Post by: rcmtb on April 14, 2015, 11:51:29 am

Hello Everyone Long Time Since My Last Post
and even I admit this is a strange question re start with..but here goes...

Hope this is not to silly a question? I have sort of this idea of having RC Tug Scale(Approx) Mooring Buoys.I mailed Harbor Models (US) not sure if the ones on their site are Model Buoys?...
 :embarrassed:
And forgive an even sillier question anyone make floating docks (i mean small plastic or similar something around 75cm or so by 30 cm very approx....The trouble is I can not really build anything and don't like keep asking my wife's family

all help appreciated
Best wishes Steve :embarrassed:

Floating g dock is polystyrene cut to the correct size and anchored with a weight. you could resin it and it should float but check the resin on scrap poly first. They can react. Ping pong balls with a weight on the bottom and a simple plastistrut then sprayed the correct colours are easiest.
