Thatchweave Products

[Mossie]

Canadian based company selling something a little different, woven detailing sets.  Most of the sets are aimed at amphibious craft and AFVs, but there's cargo nets, tow ropes and even helicopter landing nets.

Wow!

Tempting!

[rickshaw]

Interesting.  Very tempting.   

[Rheged]

This definitely has potential.  Thank you, Mossie, for drawing it to our attention.

I saw "Thatchweave" and thought "flipping 'eck I know I may be going a little thin on top, but I'm not that bad yet" 

Seriously though folks ropes, nets and things like that can be one of the most difficult things to get looking right, especially in the smaller scales so could prove very useful for AFV modellers in particular 

[Mossie]

Particularly thought of our armour modellers when I saw them.  The kind of things that'll make a good build look great.

For line I like to use lead-filled fishing line.  It's available in sizes up to 5/16"

Which is why I thought the prices were very reasonable for what you get.

[buzzbomb]

Very, very interesting.
some tempting product there

[Joe C-P]

I wonder if they can scale down to 1/350 and 1/700?
