I can say unabashedly that I am glad the installation of the cannons is complete. Now I can carry on with the top deck fittings.
One disturbing thing I discovered is that the so called brass fittings and brass wire are not made of brass. I first noticed this when I tried to straighten out some brass wire. To straighten brass wire all one has to do is with two pairs of pliers grab each end of the wire and pull and it will become straight as a ruler. With this wire it doesn't do that. In fact it also sometimes snaps. So I decided to take closer look at the wire and "brass" fittings. Yep a type of brass coated white metal. Has brass become that expensive?
Needless to say I am very disappointed in Artesania Latina. Why they did this is anyone's guess. In the past all of their brass fittings were made of brass.
Wow, gorgeous, in a record time.

Not for a while yet Pablo. There is plenty more fittings to be fitted.
ReplyDeleteIt may be the increase in prices of minerals. Although it is not the model you are given.
ReplyDeleteIn any case, the work you do is great
Gracias Diego - Me enoja cuando. ¿Piensan que no se diera cuenta?
ReplyDeleteThey should know that the material is inferior. This change should warn you not to lose customers.
