Endurance (- Occre 1:70) Build Log

Further details ...

Modification 22: Added bracing wires to the smoke stack. The historical images show the deck before dog kennels were built. Other images suggest the bracing wires past over the kennels.

Modification 24: Added more details to the boats including grab lines, and oars (made from 1mm dowel and left overs from the decking timber). I drilled small holes into the side of the top of the boats and cut pins to size and glued into the holes before attaching the thread. I applied a dab of PVA to the bottom of the thread to shape it in a loop as rope would normally hang.

Modification 25: I produced an improved stand to replace the Occre provided one. Used the Occre stand as a template to mark and cut the hull curves and used 10mm dowel to connect the 2 ends. Finished of with black felt to hold the hull.
