Talented engraver/cutter needed for ship model work
Hi friends! I am new here, I am hoping to find someone who wants to make some parts for my scale model boat. I would love a quote if you think it sounds interesting. I need valences or bezels made for windows on the hull of my model. They look like a 1970's Greyliner bus, kind of rounded but with a distinctive shape. Windows are notoriously difficult and these would be so hard and they are on the topside of the hull itself, requiring some real surgery. If I have these units with the perfectly punched window shapes all aligned properly, it would make this model really impressive. If you are interested or if you know someone who does this kind of stuff please let me know! I am willing to pay and I just know someone out there will have the talents I need and don't have myself! Thanks for listening, and have a great 2025! James

Thanks, Chuck, I appreciate your reply. The port and starboard sides need a bezel about 1 1/4 " by about 19" and is a thin strip of suitable thickness to stay together with as thin a shoulder on the top and bottom as possible I can fair in the edges of the bezel to the hull. I think it should be aluminum or similar thin metal for durability. Thanks for your hopeful reply, and I am looking forward to your thoughts on my little project. James
