Ugh! More sanding! First frame looks close.

I worry about sanding too much. I hope they all fit in the end.

Don't worry at all... this is just the start of your sanding process HAHAHA. When you have the hull frames assemble, you will have to continue sanding... A LOT !!! . I bought a mouse sander, to sand the hull interior and exterior. By hand,it's was a never ending story for me.

Cheers

Vic, here are the tools I used to sand the hull interior and exterior.

1682 HMY FUBBS - 1:24 - Stern Section [COMPLETED BUILD]

Is stacking alignment based on straight keel as I see the inside stack has gaps between frames and the 90 frame used.

Daniel, you showed Don Farr some of the tools you used to clean up your decorations. How did you use your Dremel? Did you have a special bit? Also, your decorations are very clean.

 

[Vfordyce]

Yes, thats correct. He referred to his lady as Fubbs. I must get my kit out of mothballs one-day and continue my build.
I was one of the fortunate few that received this kit.

Bryian, did you ever do a build log of your Fubbs stern section?

No dude, I'm into WW1 battleships at the moment. I will get back to Fubbs when I'm inspired to do so.

Vic, I tried to find these bits online again and I couldn't. Could be a smarter modeler recognize them so I will post a few images. They are very small 1,5+ " full size (see image with ruler).

I’m simultaneously working on a waterline WW 2 cargo ship. I hope I don’t get them mixed up.

Do they use a collett?

Do they use a collett?

Yes, you can use with colletts.
I use them with my dremel stylo and a dremel keyless chuck.
I have all my dremel tools with a keyless chuck
