Rigging/antennas scale 1/2400!

[TROLL]
I suggest that you use a scanning electron microscope to check your work when your finished.

A human hair ( at least mine ) measures about 0.002". This is about 13 times thicker than 0.0001575". I doubt you can find anything that thin. I have seen foil 0.00027" thick which we used to form a mesh with bars 0.001" wide. It was nearly impossible to handle. The strands were less than 0.5" long and most parts ended up as scrap.

the only thing i can think of for that small would be human hair. If your wife has long hair just swipe some from her hair brush.

in this scale it brings new meaning to the words pocket battleship

akselvi you must be working with a microscope...

Just a question: why did you choose this scale? Usually people choose 1/700 scale or smaller to build whole fleets of ships, so that they keep the costs low and don't have to bother about space or stormy discussions with their wife. But at 1/2400, you don't get a lot of kits available from manufactuerr, so you would have to do a lot of scatchbuilding; and on top, the kits would be really, really small (imagine a destroyer at that scale!)...

So why did you choose this weird scale?

akselvi i have never seen a 2400 built
tell me how big it is
and how many pieces etc

for 1/700, i use "invisible thread" which i purchased at Jo-Ann Fabrics. it's kind of a misnomer being called invisible, as it comes in colors (which i think were gray, black, and clear maybe?)

anywho, works pretty good. may be what you're looking for. good luck!

really? Well that would suggest that I'll be needing around 100 gauge! And i don't think I ever seen that before.. I'm not looking to copy all parts of the rigging, only the main stays and those long stuff that hang between two masts for example.

i found 32-34 gauge for 1/700 was perfect so take it from there
i mean it must be 3 times thinner
