@James Frost, BDW do yo hav mere picts?-

Maybe I should start another thread. I want to be polite to the gentleman that posted about Rattlesnake. Let me try posting the print of Rattlesnake again, for some reason I cant get it to load? It's a beautiful print. I will start another thread and I will title it, 'Building them Big.'

Nekst stepp, difikult, but il fiks it som ather way.

many mistakes, re-molding, made rudder, wrong rudder feedthrough, new planking aft, putty to correct hull profile, luckily this will be covered by whales and planking, I hope.

BDW, now there will be a break in this log until my foot gets better again, CA 6 – 8 weeks.

In the meantime, I'll keep an eye on you other modelers.

Always a lot of fun to learn and watch here at SOS, greetings Knut

Pattern strikes.

Here I use materials from very cheap spruce.

These pattern parts are later used as templates to transfer the pattern to the next frame of another type of wood.

Sorry for my late reply, Knut. Hopefully your foot is now better? And starting up the work on the yard?
Regards, Peter

 

[James Frost]

Get well mate.

 

[RogerD]

Missed the earlier posts Knut but I hope you are on the mend and progressing well.

The foot is better now but still limps a bit. When I was measuring the holes for the cannons I discovered that the whales were mounted a plank width too high, now dismantled, next attempt will be without black ink since I have discovered that sanding dust spreads very quickly to other wood. Colors with black ink later in the project, Knut-
