This is a set of stainless steel photoetched stanchions for ships guardrails. These stanchions are an alternative to the etched railings that are the normal options. These stanchions are used by drilling holes at the correct spacing, and stringing fine thread from stanchion to stanchion.

There are five styles of stanchion included in theis set:

1. Standard 3-Bar
2. Standard 2-Bar
3. Single Bar Top Rail
4. 3 Bar Offset Modern Royal Navy
5. Standard 3-Bar with angle brace

The photoetch is protected by a peice of folded cardstock with some general instructions for working with photoetch.

These stanchions may not be for everyone, but those craving that last bit of detailed accuracy in their models won't want to miss these.
