flying_dutchman2 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Share #34 Posted December 1, 2015 All the items that belong to the cabin. What I will change is the cabin walls. The kit has 2 windows on each side and the my sisters boat has one on each side. I was at Michael's yesterday and they had enlarged there wood display and I found 1/32" and 1/64" Baltic Birch ply sheets. Had to get those. The 1/64" costs $21.00 each and the 1/32" costs $9.00 Pricy, but worth it. [ I re-did the cabin walls on 1/32" ply and it looks good. The next two pictures are of the planking. I soak the wood, bend it a bit by hand, form it on the frame, use lots of clamps, let it dry overnight and the next day use a combination of CA and white glue to attach the plank to the frame. The CA is to hold the plank to the frame and the white glue is used to keep the frames together. I've experimented with this and it works for me. cog, Omega1234, Geoff Matson and 15 others 18 Quote Current Built: Zeehaen 1639, Dutch Fluit from Dutch explorer Abel J.

flying_dutchman2 Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share #37 Posted December 2, 2015 Coming towards the last of the planking. 'Out' with the clamps and 'in' with the pins. Clamps no longer fit. As you can see, I use all kinds of methods to keep the planks in place until they are fully dry. Personally, I am not big on planking. I never look forward to this. I prefer deck fittings, masts, rigging and sails. I think I will not start on any admiral model anytime soon. Maybe I should just do solid hulls and scribe the planks on the hull. Go straight to the deck and up. popeye the sailor, mtaylor, Omega1234 and 4 others 7 Quote Current Built: Zeehaen 1639, Dutch Fluit from Dutch explorer Abel J.

flying_dutchman2 Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share #40 Posted December 7, 2015 Here I mix Elmer's white glue with fine sawdust. There are some areas on the hull that are very thin (due to sanding) so I spread this mixture out on these areas and once dry it is solid and very hard. Then I give it a good sanding and because the Catboat will be painted you will not be seeing much of that. After all the rough sanding I now put on a layer of vinyl spackling. It does not shrink, can be painted, easy to apply. Marcus Duanelaker, Geoff Matson, coxswain and 12 others 15 Quote Current Built: Zeehaen 1639, Dutch Fluit from Dutch explorer Abel J.

flying_dutchman2 Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share #44 Posted December 8, 2015 Piet, Please give me some idea about how to do the lights in the cabin. Where do I buy these lights. How are they powered? How is it wired? Outside the boat? Bob Filipowsky (from our club) used a mirror opposite of the cabin entrance and when you point a flash light into it. You can then see the interior. It is no problem with the acrylic in the case. Marc mtaylor, Piet and Omega1234 3 Quote Current Built: Zeehaen 1639, Dutch Fluit from Dutch explorer Abel J.

There is nothing better than raw, young, fresh, caught a few hours ago from the sea herring (Dutch - haring) with a touch of finely cut white onions. Every 2 years when I visit my mother in Amsterdam the first thing I do the next day is go to the local fish shop in her area and have a few of these.

This might sound like a crazy question but why are you using spackle after using the wood filler? Wouldn't that give you a smooth hull? David B David, I used the wood filler which is more like Elmer's glue mixed with saw dust to get the large uneven areas. Once very dry the hull gets a good sanding. There still some small unevenness in between the planking and there I use the spackle. I have just sanded that and it is now very smooth (Pictures will follow). I used this method (sawdust/glue and spackle) on an RC boat years ago it I liked the way it looked. But then again maybe it is overkill. Now I need to look at the paint list my sister gave me and see if I can get this in lesser volume compared to the amount for the real boat.

Piet Posted December 10, 2015 Share #49 Posted December 10, 2015 Hey Marcus, I don't mean to hijack your log but your avatar doesn't quite show how to eat a good new raw herring (haring). For the benefit of all your followers here is how it's done Your's truly visiting Remco, who treated us with Holland's best, ready and with eager anticipation for the delicate tast of the fresh herring. Notice the minced onions? Your's truly ready to take a bite from the fresh herring. All of us really enjoyed them, even our grandson!

Piet Posted December 10, 2015 Share #50 Posted December 10, 2015 Okay Marcus, you asked how I put a few lights inside my VOC ship.. A few years ago when buying things at our local hardware store they had a Christmas display thingy they were going to trash. So I asked to trash it my way and I became the happy owner of a few LED lamps. I just removed the LED's, stripped a few lengths of black and red telephone wires from a spare cable I had kicking around and installed them. You can buy LED's via Internet of any color you like. Light amber seems nice. Mine are just plain white but it'll do. Just make sure about the voltage, polarity, how many batteries and would you need a resister. There are a few builders on MSW who have a lot more knowledge about this then I do and hopefully somebody will jump in and give you much better info. I havent tried mine yet and may not work, needing help myself. This is what I brought home and used.

flying_dutchman2 Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share #51 Posted December 14, 2015 Piet; Thanks for the instructions. Only one problem. I am planning to put the boat in a display case which means there will be wires and batteries. There is another solution. I am going to cut a piece of mirror to the dimensions so it fits towards the bow in the cabin. I will leave the cabin door open. Once the boat is in a case, you can use a flashlight and shine it in the cabin and the mirror will reflect the interior. I am going to use the lights setup for something else.

flying_dutchman2 Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share #53 Posted December 16, 2015 I am a bit stuck as I cannot find the paint that looks similar to the real boat. I can do an undercoat but a top coat..... I was mixing different acrylic colors, but that didn't look right ort I am not doing it correctly. I need to read up on "Painting modelships 101". I paint with a brush, no airbrushing.+ My sister sent me a list of the paints and a link to the site where they got the paint. I now have to look similar colors in smaller quantities. http://stright-mackay.com/ Pettit Easypoxy paints on page 431. The topsides are Semi-Gloss White Deck is Sandtone Sides of the cabin are Grand Banks Beige. Bottom anti-fouling Aquagard - a qt of red would do it. Cockpit deck and cabin sole are generic battleship gray. The woodwork is Sikkens Cetol Marine ( Stright doesn't have it, but Home Depot might. If not, we could get it through Hamilton Marine in Searsport, Maine Silica Sand should be added to paint on surfaces where people will walk, for grit - roughens the surface. I will research this and if anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it very much.

flying_dutchman2 Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share #54 Posted January 11, 2016 I re-did the cabin / combing with 1/32" birch ply (wonderful wood to work with)and put one window each instead of two according to the kit. Bending the wood to fit the final shape This is the cabin wall that goes below deck. Same wood and thickness as the combing. My sisters boat has no screw on the boat, they have a small outboard motor. So I am covering this part with balsa, spackle, sand and paint. I am redoing the rudder as well. I have sanded the final spackle coat on the boat and spray painted a very light coat of clear on the hull to protect the hull from scratches. In between the kitchen remodeling I am going to start with putting the cabin together and I found a weave thin mirror for the back part of the cabin. It came from a LCD display from an HP printer I scavenged for parts. Will show that in the next installment.
