Vytautas АвторThanks for the kind words, guys!
I'm sorry, Gerald, but you didn't guess... 🙂 It's not a guitar string.
The guitar string is too stiff for me. The cable I made from 0.3 mm copper wire (core) and 0.25 mm soldering wire (outer). The whole cable thickness is 0.8 mm.

GeraldAh ok but see the cool hydraulic line from the "Falken" here. A guitar side is usually faster. There are also soft bass sides 😉

Vytautas АвторThanks, Gerald for the link, it looks really good. But since I'm not a musician, and I don't know anything about guitar strings, it turned out to be easier for me to make the cable myself. Winding a cable is not a problem at all - I make about 10 cm of cable in less than 5 minutes
I first wind about 20 turns, then use the fingers of one hand to take the already winded part and roll between the fingers. I hold the fingers of the other hand slightly compressing both wires perpendicular to each other. Slightly compressed fingers become like a thread and the winding wire slips between the fingers and winds on a core wire tightly. It's really easy.

SpanjaardOn ebay you can buy cheap guitar strings , by the meter, and by size, so not much musical knowledge is needed 😉
Probably also from local musical store

Vytautas АвторThanks, gorby. It is a pity that work with the model is going so slowly, as always, there is not enough time.

Vytautas АвторHi Kathleena, thanks for the kind words! I know you like trucks and dioramas. Not a truck here, and I can't change that anymore 🙂, but a diorama with this Flak I plan to do.

Vytautas АвторThanks, Kathleena. Much appreciated.
In terms of learning, I think it's best to visit the large but well-organized forum that goes into more detail about modeling and various technologies. I would recommend britmodeller.com, they are wonderful and very friendly people, with whom it is very pleasant to communicate, and really learn a lot.

Vytautas АвторAčiū Audriau! Thanks, Audrius!
I decided that the gray base and red main body would be an interesting and not boring color combination.
