YUANQING BLUENOSE - Peter Voogt [COMPLETED BUILD]

The cabin is complete in the upper part. But visible through a half roof and 1,5 open wall.
Hopefully in a few day some results …..
Although not having started yet... I am considering the roof of the main cabin to be partially open, in order to show the main cabin interior. Also, but not set in stone yet, an other option would be to leave (part of) the port lower cabin wall out, but since the port hull is planked down to the waterline, I'm not sure it's a good idea.
 
I completely agree

I took over the translation work from Dean at the beginning of this year, so that he could continue working before the deadline of his BN
Dean sends me the print files
I prepare them with the software I have for 3D printing
I help my other friend modeler for info for his sub
He prints the 3D workpieces
3 D prints to Peter and later to Canada for another SOS member
If necessary I call on Peter as a helpline for questions
And so everyone does something for each other

And what think what, am writing this, the radio is on, and it's playing

Can I try them out right away with the moldings on the walls of the MainCabin.
Made a first start for the frame under the deck beams where the bunks come in and the benches in front. Top and bottom still dry-fit on top of each other.
Regards, Peter
Hallo Peter,
from which supplier or dealer did you order them?
Some weeks ago I tried a search, but everywhere they were sold out....
 
Started customizing the frame for the Cabin under the deck beams, including the height:
499 CabinFrame.jpg
Fitting under the beams:
500 CabinFrame.jpg
To get a bit of a picture of everything, my iPhone crammed into the hull.

I will also use the theme that I used for the walls of the FishHold for the further building:
501 CabinBunks.jpg
- the back wall has the nibbling planking from half;
- the port side has the wall coverings, 2 bunks and before that the bench with 'storage drawers';
- the starboard side remains open with the frame.

Dry-fit the frame of the deck beams again to fit:
502 CabinBunks.jpg
The whole is located slightly inside the opening in the deck, but that has a reason because of the interior wall of the upper structure. It will slides in along the beams to the bottom frame.

With view through from the side:
503 CabinBunks.jpg
The wall of the Cabin on the deck will also remain open to starboard so that you will also continue to have visibility when the BN has been completed.
Under de bench is no gap. It is the shadow of it, because of the light above.

Now finish the starboard side with the Captains Cabin, the frames for the bunks and the benches around.
Regards, Peter
 
Stunning work as usual Peter! I adore the neatness and masterful execution of those sleeping bunks. Now if you add a little curtain and railing that can be drawn closed or open, you have a submarine sleeping bunk, :)

At first: thanxs for the compliments!
Of course they will come, Heinrich. Just like the lower bunks in the ForeCastle. But that's finishing! Not for the carpenter. So you have to wait a little longer for that.
Regards, Peter

I hope Peter doesn’t mind, but I wanted to share the final steering mechanism model.
I don’t know who’s more excited about it, me or Peter! :p

No problem, Dean. I'm just glad you posted it. All credits to you! :)
When printed and I am at the stage of installing it on the deck, it will be shining in the half open box ….. with the printed steering wheel.
When working from the front to aft, then first the windlass and motor …… or start at the aft ………
Well, so many things to do on the hull, I have time enough to consider that.
Regards, Peter
