NORWAY`S HMS BLANDFORD CROSS SECTION BUILD 1-32

[Tobias]

Nice little progress, Knut. I like your dead eyes, they look great.

 

[Norway]

@Tobias, thank you, these will also be dyed black, I will also add traces of rope in each of the three holes before dyeing, regards Knut-

A little more, first layer of linseed oil under finished, still some surface work on the outside, steps close ASO.

For whatever reason, I’m not getting notification about new posts on this thread. I just caught up. Great work, Knut. Very nice model! Keep it up.

You are not alone, I have also been experiencing a similar phenomenon for several months and wrote about it.
What I do is, I go through all the logs/new posts to identify what I missed and when I identify such a phenomenon, I make a renewed registration to view.

Thanks for all the likes and good compliments.
@DocBlake, have you clicked the follow symbol in my log. BDW- I'm having problems with the print service on my pc, can't print at actual size.
The question is, can you give me the dimensions of the steps on the side of the hull, I have drawings of the hatches and ports that I am making now.
Otherwise, I have the drawings and measurements for the rest of the building
1.2 mm plank is laminated on plastic, then it comes off very easily.








Greetings Knut-

Dear Knut
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays for you and your family

Merry Christmas, Model friends, greetings from NORWAY, Knut-

Test of new saw, Proxxon KG 50.
I felt that the yellow cover and the red plug were in the way, but there were still some hatches.
Later I will try with a proper saw blade.

 

[Tobias]

Hello Knut, I just wanted to find out how you are getting on and whether there is any new progress.

 

[Norway]

Hello again Tobias, it's been quiet at modeling recently, but I'm building a new workshop indoors in my basement.
here it will be (automatic vacuum cleaner system), just move the hose between the machines, not quite finished, but here are some pictures.

 

[Tobias]

Hello Knut,
this is a nice workspace and I see you have chosen the Bosch drill, I think a good choice.
I look forward to updates soon.

 

[Norway]

@Tobias, small workshop compared to yours as I see in the nice pictures from your workshop together with Uwe.
The Boch drill, which you told about is good as it can also be used for more than just modelling, thanks.

 

[WojtasS]

At least there's a place to make the model. I hope there'll soon be a new update
Cheers

 

[Jimsky]

...a real dream... maybe one day, I might have a workshop like this. I like it

Small but mighty, size does not always matter.

 

[Salty]

I am slowly getting around to visit the building logs of people who have visited La Salamandre.

I think you have done a great job and it is certainly a labour of love. I was very interested in all your experiments with bolts and treenails as I will have to decide what to do with my frames in the not too distant future.

 

[Norway]

@Salty, this is defently a good way to learn this way of model building, I've gotten a lot of help from looking through the other Blandford build logs, especially @DocBlake's build log, lastly, just ask what you had to wonder, greetings Knut-
