Ciao, volentieri. Metto alcuni dei passaggi. Inizio col fanale che è tutto in legno come nella realtà e con la parte centrale in plexiglass per simulare le vetrate.

Hi Michele
I have bookmarked your way of creating the lanterns for future reference. Thank you for showing us. All you details are separate works of art.

 

[MICHELE PADOAN]

Buongiorno, grazie a tutti.
Ho terminato l'ossatura delle due lance.

 

[Steef66]

Did you sand and cut the ribs to that form? Or did you also bend the curve?

Sono tagliate al traforo a forma.

They are open-cut to shape.

 

[Steef66]

They are cut in the shape

If the translator says it good. Thank you.
You dont have problems that they break because of the grain in the wood.

Fai in modo che la venatura coincida col la parte del ginocchio.

Make the grain coincide with the knee part.

 

[Steef66]

Make the grain match the knee part.

Yes I see in an early picture of you. Smart to do it like that. I did it on the long-side and it always breaks. Like the picture below of you shows. Thanks for your help.

Perfetto, proprio così. Tieni presente che poi gran parte dello scalmo verrà tagliata. La parte in eccesso serve solo per tenere allineata e salda la costa alla forma.

Perfect, just like that. Keep in mind that much of the oarlock will then be cut off. The excess part is only used to keep the edge aligned and firmly to the shape.

Perfect, just like that. Keep in mind that then most of the scalm will be cut off. The excess part is just to keep the rib aligned and firm to the form.

You bin a great help in this, next time I start making a sloop, I will keep this in mind. Maybe I can make it as beautiful like you do. I said maybe

 

[MICHELE PADOAN]

Ciao a tutti, ho iniziato la bordatura delle due lance.

 

[Uwek]

this is a great example of extremly accurate planking works - Bravo!

 

[MICHELE PADOAN]

Ciao a tutti, ho terminato le due lance. Metto le fasi di costruzione in sequenza.
Hello everyone, I have finished the two lances. I put the construction phases in sequence.

 

[MICHELE PADOAN]

Qui sotto le lance terminate e trattate col bitume di giudea.
Below the spears finished and treated with Judean bitumen.

 

[Steef66]

Details showing the master behind the project. It almost looks like that you have shrunk a real longboat.

 

[Herman]

Really beautiful masterpieces

 

[dockattner]

Simply amazing Michele!

 

[Uwek]

Bravo - the final result is amazing
The combination of very good metal works, with clean and accurate woodwork and this treated with bitumen - Very Very good
