YUANQING BLUENOSE - Peter Voogt [COMPLETED BUILD]

This is a build of enormous proportions brought to fruition by a master mind-and craftsman.

PS: There is no truth in the rumor that Peter was co-opted by Red Bull prior to them setting pole for today's Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. I just wonder though how come that rear wing on the Red Bull looks so much smaller than usual. A case of a Dutchman wielding an imported Japanese saw ... maybe ...?

Nah, I think he passed Hamilton just a tad too close...

Thank you, Heinrich. But this makes me blush.
There are still some things about the RedBull that they could adjust........ When they call, I will advise them .....

Good morning Henk,

I don't think your so-called limitations play part in this, so please don't sell yourself short.
The area Peter is currently detailing, what Peter is striving for ánd accomplishing and the limitations the kit itself is imposing, makes the main cabin area very difficult to grasp. Various structural elements are coming (close) together here and, as far as I understand, some of the things Peter wants to accomplish do not necessarily agree with the configuration of the kit (correct me if I'm wrong).
Whenever Peter surprises us, I have to look back and forth in his previous posts, refer back to the Saga, check other (very limited) sources and come up with rather unintelligent questions or remarks, patiently replied by Peter. And also bear in mind, I think Peter is a couple of light years ahead of us, as far as this build goes.

Kind regards,

Johan

Dear Henk.
As a small addition to Johan's reaction: given what you build with your Sub and BN, there is nothing wrong with your limitations. :) Only Johan and I are sometimes ‘digging from the deck to the keel’.
(And as Dutchman trying to make a understandeble conversation in proper English with technical nautical terms ;))
Just a little advice (for you <and this afternoon for Max>): stay on track and keep the overall picture in mind.
And at the and, there will be the trophy First Place MetalExplosionBottle
Regards, Peter
 
Not that much to report, but I did spend a lot of hours before I had a good time.
To make the curve in the wall straight, I had to make an extra beam: twisted to go round and up:

With the iPhone. Then you will not quickly get everything sharp.

Out of the mold:

The distortion is due to the close-up photo.

A new little jig to maintain the shape during the interior planking:

And then edit it a bit.

That's becoming a skipper-worthy cabin. Okay
(Btw, "skipper" comes from the Dutch word "schipper".)

Excellent bending of very small pieces for the planking sill plate and head. With full sized lumber that would probably have need a notched piece of work. A carpenter would probably not want to take time to steam bend and Walters was in a hurry. WIth you plethora of thread pages you are setting a possible record . . . if not with pages then with your build detailing. Rich

Hi Rich. Thanxs for the compliments and something to keep in mind.
The bending of the beams did take some attempts.;) 1x1 splits quickly.
But I hope my posts aren't overkill. That is by no means the intention. Just share what I run into, hoping it helps someone else.
Regards, Peter

I don't see any overkill when the log mission is sharing and caring for others to see how things may be done. . . and you do that so well. Rich

"The distortion is due to the close-up photo". Ah yes, those close-up photos really have a way of highlighting things not visible to the naked eye. One of the flaws of our too-sophisticated technology. Still, a great job Peter, and I am really enjoying watching your build come together Thumbsup

The design from Dean received the steering based on Saga drawing loaded into my 3D CAD Viewer

Planning is that this design will be 3D printed early 2022 together with the Windlass engine

Stunning work from Dean
