Hi Mr Jacket. Thank you for your info on other names in the Aziz fleet. I have contacted Lawrie & Jackie for advice.
I pondered the Inwale problem when the original castings were glued on. I found that a sideways knock would break the join and the railing became a separate loose structure.
I used a 4mm brass tube which I cut into the lengths required. I then filled them with molten lead and inserted a 6BA bolt in the base to a depth of 10mm with the thread protruding about 150mm.
The tops were covered in a blob of lead and sanded to a dome shape. I then drilled a hole for the railing and joined them all together spaced at the recommended distance. These were then soldered together and the surplus removed from the rails. This was then sprayed with undercoat and then top coat black.
I then marked out the positions on the painted and finished deck, and drilled out 6BA holes and inserted the threaded stubs and attached them underneath with washers and nuts. When tight, I cut off the surplus thread.
The gates were already made, so care was taken to ensure the width of the railings matched this time (ooh er!! Nothing like having gates which clanged together like a child had been swinging on them !!)
I suppose you might call this 'over engineering', but I can see now why they put up the signs "Please do not touch" at the these model shows.
Must get off the Club site as modelling time is flying by.
Cheers...Ken
