  1. Pete I stumbled on your build and it was a lucky find. very nice work. I have wanted to build the 12 1/2 haven for some time. I would like to doit scratch. Do you know of any plans out there that do not cost a fortune like the Wooden boast plans? Thanks Joe (Thisthle17)

    BTW any more progress on your build?

  2. Are you aware that Syren is in the works for a full POF of the Speedweell in AYC? I saw it recently in a meeting it is quite large. I think near or at 3/8 scale.

      I knew that Joe. I think it may be a while before it becomes available and I need a project to keep me going. Speedwell looks attractive because 1/48 POB plans are available with the Antscherl/Herbert book. 

      You are very lucky to have meetings to attend especially when you can get to see works in progress such as Syren's POF Speedwell. I'm a bit on my own down here in Cornwall UK. But I value these exchanges and all the build logs the more for that.

      Thanks for your message Joe.

      Fred I do recall that Chuck Passaro of Syren ship models said that 1/4 scale was too small for him to produce such a model. I was surprised by that as he did not elaborate. It may have been related to laser machining. You may wish to contact David Anterschel. He is quite friendly and helpful. Hope I am not mixing the pot too much here..

      Indeed nice to connect with you. I will be following what ever your next project is.

  3. Good morning Pete. I happened upon your posting this morning and welcome you to MSW. In addition what caught my eye was the fact that you hail from western NY. I am the chair/facilitator of the Model Shipwrights of Western NY and would like to invite you to join us at one of our hybrid meetings (both in person and via streaming). We have an upcoming one in May before we recess for the summer. If you supply me with an email address I will forward you a copy of our LOG from this weeks session as well.

    Joe

  4. Just saw your beautiful model on MSW. My, my! beautiful work Jim.

    Joe

  5. That was a fine presentation you gave on Power Point presentations. You gave me new tools and access. I did follow up on my version of PP and it is a 2016 version and does not have all the up front conveniences you demonstrated today. I can get at most all via the task bar within PP. Thank you again.

      My pleasure.  I am glad you can use the tools and apply what I covered. 

       

      You are quite welcome.  Contact me if you have specific questions or need pointers on some set of tasks. 

  6. I should have read your August 24 posting before I asked my question. I now understand it all a bit better. It still has to be tricky deciding on depth of cut etc ask the perpendiccular forces to the axis could easily wreck the string of blocks.

  7. Hey Chuck was just looking at your blocks and trying to figure out your process. If you recll you gave me the Winne "laser" files to create my own bulkheads and strongback with a CNC. Indeed it was a learning experience! Yours It would seem to me would be executable with an X, Y, Z axis cnc but would benefit with the 4th axis of rotation. You don't have to spill the beans but is that how you pulled these off?

    Joe

    1. Chuck

      Chuck

      Nope…just a 3 axis machine.  Its a very involved process I am still refining

  8. Hello Nick!

    Allow me to introduce our model ship group to you. We are located in and around Rochester NY. We are a small group that was founded in late 2015. We have members in Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Florida, and even one in Lisbon Portugal. We meet monthly and through the Zoom application we have been able to include our more distant members. You can learn more about us by visiting our web site modelshipwrightguildwny.org.

    We have located you through the “Community” drop down function on the Model Ship World forum and are reaching out to you to explore your possible interest and participation in a lively and talented group of modelers from all walks of life.

    Generally, sessions are structured with introductions of visitors, followed by a brief business segment and then we almost always have a central presentation topic or two ending with a show and tell of group models. The sessions usually last two hours.

    So you are invited to visit us (via Zoom) this Fall and see what we are all about. You might find us interesting enough to join us on a more consistent basis. Please PM me back and I will put you on distribution for our Fall schedule when released.

    We will not badger you beyond this outreach if you are not interested.

    Hoping to hear from you.

    Thistle17 on MSW (Joe) or go to our web site and contact me through that portal.

      Joe,

       

      I think that is great.  I was looking for a local group a year or so ago, but it does not appear that one exists.  

       

      i would be happy to join you if my schedule allows it.

      Happy to hear from you. Sometime in mid to late August I will be sending out the September agenda. It will be a preliminary as the agenda tends to firm up the closer we get to "air time". We had been meeting, pre Covid, on the 2nd Saturday of the month in person. During this uncertain era we moved to the 3rd Thursday of the month in the evening. We are still sorting that out. Standby for further developments.

      Your personal info will remain private.

      Nice to have you join us!
