Keel for the
second hull, version
No. 2.
All mistakes were taken into account and their own advice was applied... and here is the result, or rather the build process of the second version.
At first, everything is practically as in the first versions, but we cut it off only from a small part.
Then, in the same detail, I cut off the excess and scribbled a contour on the second detail with a finished profile...
Well, then cut out everything superfluous from this detail. Here the principle is simple, we prepare one part, we make a second one according to it, and the only visual connection will be the contour that we scribbled, so I made sampling (4) in excess, without bothering, because all the voids will be occupied by glue.
The main thing is to set everything straight. And do not cut everything along the contour until all the details are adjusted.
And here is the result after drilling holes from both sides! To perfectly achieve the correct arrangement of holes on both sides (if there is no vertical drilling device). That is, I drilled holes in a pattern on each side and inserted wire there on each side and glued CA gel over it. (shown above). And after grinding, I really liked the result.
I also liked the right lock. And as I expected, it was not difficult to manufacture.
I get straight high from this lock.
Well, this is a sample of the top of the keel (stem). I wanted to design it in the color scheme of the entire case. And I also really liked the result and I will do the same to the original.
(the sample was hastily made and covered with tung oil to see mostly the color and arrangement of the lines.)
I think one more day and I will finish the final version of the keel (second), which looks much better than the first (and the option from the set too!).
P.S. I really like the color scheme (yellow, blue)... just like the colors of my country's flag.
