what is the correct width of copper sheathing on 1/96 scale?

According to the instructions you paint the copper plating below the water line making it a rough 3 1/4 inches. It also give a you the option of greens to give it a tarnished look. On mine I will probably use copper foil with micro metal finish . That will probably be the most realistic look. If you plan to go for the tarnished look I recommend pastels. If you are a beginner I would go with primering first then copper paint. I hope this information was helpful to you and informative. The model is nothing to sneeze at in any direction you take with it. Happy modeling!

I have not built mine yet but I can look it up in my plans when I get home. I do not know the actual width of the original. It would be hard to say because it has been restored. I can only tell you what the plans estimate its value to be

1/2" is going to be tough. 1" is doable. (We use it for tile and love it. We snap lines on all our floors and this makes squaring so much easier. No need to snap a primary line to check room squareness, just use the laser...) Hope this helps.

Yes I had a 1/2" copper pipe slip join situation and it worked. There is a space between the threads on the end of the plastic pipe Delta supplys that I had to cut off about 3/4:" with a hack saw. See item (6) in the instructions. Then everything worked OK.

5 1/4" But if you're recreating one, get 6"x3/8" metal dowel and bend it 90 degrees at 3/4" from on end.

The outer sheathing is about 5/16" in diameter. I really like this wire. Highly recommend.

I found this chart on the Kingston Brass website, I think it has exactly what you need: http://www.kingstonbrass.com/v/images/tech/measurement/GS8571WDL.pdf

My sheath is Mille compatible, but my first sheath came with webbing that was torn away from the sheath. It was returned and the second sheath had torn webbing as well.

Approximately 1/16 of an inch, though there is a little variance. I hope this helps.

I have a roll of this wire. When put up next to a tape measure, it looks to be about as close to 1/16" as possible (about 1.5 millimeters). David VA

0.098" to 0.102", depending on where you measure. Call it a tenth of an inch.

That is not correct. My manual shows 62 x 114 x 21.8 mm. With the conversion that's considerably larger, although the thickness is less than one inch. HTH.

What I bought were 12mm X 1.5. Somewhere along the line, their add must've gotten screwed up. When it asks you to choose the thread pitch, it only lists 12 X 1.25 or 12 X 1.5

Yes, 0.062(5) is correct at 1/16".0.0062 would be thick paper, 0.62 is 5/8"!

I measured the thickness of the plastic with a metal ruler at a midpoint between wires; the thickness is pretty close to 1/32 of an inch.

Looks to be around 1/32 of an Inch. hopefully that helped your decision. :)

Hi Russ, Use standard calculator paper. I believe it is 2-1/4" width. Hope this helps

I think the 1/16th is the size of the wire and the 3/32nds is the size of the wire PLUS the vinyl coating. I've bought this product. It was excellent! Look for burst strength and wire wrap patterns when comparing different wire rope. Hope this helps.
