Many years ago, Model Expo had a simpler and perhaps superior gadget called the String-Along. I think it was made by Dobson. This was in the mid 80’s. Glad to see this Chinese offering. I am surprised you did not make your own! 😍
When I attach rope to a block I seize the rope together to hold the block. Could this be done on this machine? It's such a pain to hold the block, put the ends of the rope into a vice and then try to turn the block while winding the seizing around the rope. I need a block seizing machine.
I do it with blocks the same way. You should watch my videos where I install the rigging. In the process, I show how it can be done on this tool for different blocks. I use binder clips to hold the ends of the ropes...
I didn't have superglue accelerator, so I liberally covered everything with baking soda. My hope to firmly glue wood and metal - worked and has been working for more than 7 years...
New to building wooden model ships, so pardon the newbie question: this serving machine adds to an existing rope one strand at a time. For example, the first strand gets one strand of thread after one pass, becoming a 2-stranded rope. Then the next pass you add another strand to the 2-stranded rope, and so on and so forth. Is this correct? Thanks, Olha!
No, this tool is only for winding (serving) already finished ropes (for example, the first shroud or collar for blocks) or for the worming of stays. And I use Ropewalk to make ropes, you can find a video about it in the same playlist. I can't put a direct link in a comment because otherwise RUclips will block it...
Serving a rope in the real world was a method of protecting standing rigging. It would be done as an outer casing which would then be slushed , to make a weather proof and chafe resistant surface, vastly prolonging the life of the shrouds etc. serving could be by itself or part of a system of three steps; worming , parcelling, and serving. Worming is infilling the space in the strands of the main rope. Parcelling is covering the rope and worming with tarred canvas. Serving the outer casing. This was done especially in the days of natural fiber rope. The saying was worm and parcel with the lay, turn and serve the other way.

You can buy this serving machine kit from syren ship model company (USA).
This one was bought there!
What did you put on the gears at the beginning? Did you coat both sides with ca glue?

@@OlhaBatchvarov I see. Thanks for the explanation, Olha. I appreciate it. 👍
Where did you buy this machine Olha, I can't find it anywhere can you help me out????
Yes of course!
This is from the Syren website:

.
I would appreciate an explanation of what “serving” is and a slower demonstration of it working please.
Oh I have it in all my videos when I install rigging on the models! Where you have to serving and how to do it with this tool...

Sabes si hay planos de los engranajes?
En la descripción debajo del video.
Where can I buy one of these?
This is Syren model company.
Hi. Can you please reveal what is this white powder you are using with cyanoacrylate?
Hello. It is a common baking soda (Na2CO3). It helps to solidify cyanoacrylate instantly.
I believe it is baking soda, it sets the glue and adds some strength.
Semplicemente fantastica e geniale👍👍👍👍👍👍
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks.

@@OlhaBatchvarov оказывается русская речь вам не далека.
Just use a CA accelerator. Your build looks completely amateurish.
But what if you don't have an accelerator at the right time? My machine (glued on soda) has been working this way for over 4 years)))
