PS-47 through 59 make excellent industrial vents when modified by adding Styrene Strips to every other slat. They can also be used as window awnings.

Professional model makers have used plastics as virtually their sole working material for the past 30 years. However, hobbyists, miniaturists and amateur model builders have, for the most part, continued to use wood, card and brass for their models. There are, of course, applications where those materials are suitable or desirable. But in most cases, Plastruct should be your material of choice. Fittings can be more readily attached to Tubing, particularly in sizes 5/16″ and over, if the pipe is screwed onto the Fitting. Always rotate the Tubing in the same direction whether attaching or removing the Fitting. STYRENE Basic construction of building shells is usually of a rigid material such as Acrylic, Styrene, Foamboard or plywood. Plastruct Plastic Patterned Sheets can then be applied to create realistic simulated finishes. To represent building elevations (floors) or glass panels on glass skyscrapers, scribe the front side (reflective side) of Mirrored Sheet with a hobby knife using a straight edge. Trace the grooves with an ink pen or bullet-tipped marker of the appropriate color until the desired effect is achieved.We are pleased to provide the following collection of creative tips for working with PLASTRUCT Plastic Model Parts. To create realistic welded (or riveted) tank seams, use a radiator hose clamp as your horizontal guide.

It has proven to be ideal because it is so convenient to work with. It can be cut, turned, drilled, painted and easily cemented. The Tubing and Tubing Fittings are manufactured to provide a good friction fit and maintain the outside diameter; splines on the male Fittings accomplish tight fit and prevent undesired rotation and still allow intentional turning. This feature permits cementing to be a final operation. The telescoping sizes of the pipe combined with the workability makes improvisation quite simple.
