    Hello gentlemen

    Yes, that is probably true, another advantage that speaks for a magnetic conversion. It is not easy to find good containers in which the ships can be stored in a space-saving manner. I have already converted 9 of my 16 ships to the magnetic version. I am still waiting for 3 ships from the USA. Today, some more 4x1mm magnets arrived. :)

    I already started my next project, building of land masses and islands for Sail of Glory & Co.. :)

    I will start a new topic in this regard after completion. Currently, I have the Styrodur pre-build, cutted, modified and primed. A 90° "L" piece 500x500mm with a small bay, town, cliffs and 2 small islands. I am still waiting for their 2mm ABS base.

    Best wishes,
    Marco

    Hi Marco,
    Before you start your project you might be interested in these which I did for the site.

    If you keep the thread closed whilst producing your new topic, I will be able to transfer it to the kit building section on the Home page and you will get a medal credited to you.

    I look forward to sharing construction methods with you.

    Hello Rob & Co.

    I think everything about the magnetic conversion of the Sail of Glory ships is shown up and today some more items arrived for my land masses project. So, I would say, time to transfer this thread and start the new project! :)

    I just checked your links/posting and of course I will use them, too.

    Best wishes from Kiel,
    Marco
