Hi janiosp.
I will upload the drawing with a resolution of 200 dpi, though not right away.
Please wait until then.
I have been so busy that I could use a cat's help.
I am working on a chopper and a workbench.
There are too many requests for production.
A happy sigh.

Dude... Thank you very, very much indeed. He was looking for these plans for a long time, but he couldn't find them anywhere. It was the best!

mellpapa, today I viewed your log from the first post and also checked out your website using 'Translate'. This blog has been so instructive and the artistry and originality you display is like watching 'Kōhei Uchimura' competing. Fabulous work. - cheers to you and family.

The Silent Mary, which has not been touched for over a year, has finally resumed its crafting.
The first step is to craft the handrail posts on both sides of the bow.
This is the starboard side.
This is the port side.
Brass wire is used for both port and starboard struts to give them strength.
I left it until the glue is dry.
While the glue was left to dry, I was making arm parts to support the gangway, about 16 pieces should do it.
The handrail is glued in place.
This is the port side.
This is the starboard side.
Now that the glue is dry, I painted German gray.
It's not dry yet, so I'll drybrush it later.
This is the port side.
This is starboard.
Sometimes, it is an overall image.
Here is an image from diagonally forward on the port side.
This image is from diagonally forward to starboard.
I made this cannon about 10 years ago by cutting some wood. It is painted gray-surf.
It was just the right size for the Silent Mary.
Here is an image of it placed on each cannon section. Just right.
This will be molded in silicone and replicated in resin in the number needed for the Silent Mary.
First, cover the bottom and the surrounding area of the carriage with clay.
Since the mold is made by tying the carriage together, we pour the silicone inside the carriage.
We wait for it to harden in this state, so we can leave it overnight.
You'll need a lot of these ring pins in a model sailboat. There are some sold as parts, but I'll make my own.
I have special pliers to make these.
I'll make about 50 for now. If I run out, I can make more.
Made with special pliers above.
The tip of the special pliers looks like this.
It is the best shape for making rings.
This is the craft so far today.

Jimsky and Philski, it has been a while.
Thanks for the info on the special pliers.
I bought these pliers about 6 years ago at Tokyu Hands in Sapporo.
I see that you can also buy them on Amazon.
Well, today I'm working on molding cannon and carriage.

I lived in Chitose for 3 years. Loved Sapporo! Beautiful city! The beer and the skiing was excellent!
Good to hear from you. How about the build log of your cannon and carriage?

Mr. Philski,
I lived in Sapporo for 3 years when I was young.
I enjoyed the snow festival in winter.

Hi Jimsky
I looked up when this cannon was made and found that it was made during the first Flying Dutchman I made. The silicon molds from that time are no longer available, so I have to re-make the silicon molds.
