You will notice that the paper will start to wrinkle and soften...<br />- while the paper is damp, apply pure glue to the surface that will be covered, generally the arches that support the canvas. If the surface to be covered is very large, apply pure glue only to the edges of the surface, to allow the paper to "deform" more freely.<br />- apply the tracing paper over the bucket arches, with the wet side of the glue-water solution facing downwards, in contact with the arches<br />- with your fingers moistened with water, carefully smooth and press the tracing paper over the arches, avoiding tearing the paper (which is softened by the glue+water solution.)<br />- don't worry about small folds and wrinkles that may appear: when the paper dries, it contracts, smoothing out these details a little... but it's these wrinkles that give the process a real appearance...<br />- at the same time as you "smooth" the paper over the arches, you can apply a layer of glue+water on the side that has not yet received the tracing paper glue... use the brush to model the wrinkles and folds...<br />- with the paper already "wet" (both sides), fold the canvas, completely or partially closing the bucket. At this stage you will give the final shapes to your canvas.<br />- Watch the paper dry...You will notice that the canvas stretches and contracts. Therefore, it is important not to apply the canvas too tightly when it is still wet...<br />The process may seem complicated, but it is not. I suggest testing on a prototype, until you master the technique more instinctively...<br />You can also use this method to make canvas rolls, cargo covers, etc. I suggest you take a look at the various articles here at Bunker, especially those about trucks, to see more examples...<br />Hope this helps. Your idea was noted...I'll try to make a video about it soon. A big hug and if you have any questions, get back to me. A big hug and good modeling!!!Panzerserrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12144228632342836364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-200512429329886031.post-81459400205480997712023-11-01T12:53:55.962-03:002023-11-01T12:53:55.962-03:00Dear Sir,

Skates help distribute the weight ...<br />More primitive or Spartan impossible !!! But I think it would be functional ...Panzerserrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12144228632342836364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-200512429329886031.post-90066115280260503072016-03-06T04:03:56.105-03:002016-03-06T04:03:56.105-03:00Very interesting idea.

Do you still have links to the original photos or story you saw that inspired you to make this model?<br />It looks like this is something you could replicate with an actual truck, but I think it would work with the plow able to move up and down slightly, pivoting at that rear plate and the plow lifted and lowered with a mechanism connected to a PTO. It only needs to lift up a small amount to clear the road when traveling and as for when it's lowered, you could add weights on the plow blade to keep it from bouncing off the road when plowing. A definite, no hydraulics, low tech operation. It would be interesting to see if it would work in real life.Leo Horishnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11560448539524612795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-200512429329886031.post-75859691044800010262013-05-29T14:31:15.370-03:002013-05-29T14:31:15.370-03:00Thanks, Przemo !!!
