Right now the ribs are 6 mm thick, the slots on the keel (and overall spacing on the ship) is 5 mm. So it will be easier to cut the slots on the keel to a bigger size, but is that what I want to do. Or should I sand the ribs down to the 5 mm they are supposed to be. Thoughts appreciated here.
I like the idea of cutting them down the 1 mm to get them to the right size. Any suggestions on what kind of scrapper? In your photo it looks like it's just a blade, which I have plenty of.
Gilles, good, how do you do the pictures when you hold the same thing with both hands? do you have a tripod?
and we enjoy this log very muchAbsolutely love how you model getting the shape and the way you build! You must really enjoy the building process.
I think Blandford crosssection - is the great first step into POF builds, not to mention scratch builds. Various skills can be acquired, and a great understanding of ship construction: keel and frames assembly in particular.I'm going to build Blandford first so that I can train my skills with tools and various techniques.
Good progress, I follow closely because I will later build Rattlesnake in the same way as you.
