Amalio,

 

Superb work indeed. For many of us (I believe) that your inner mold would be our finished outer hulls that we would also be proud of (;-) 

 

I will follow with much interest.

Hey Amalio,

 

that model, you name the "inner mold", looks to me as if it is the actual model (by the way an awsome and most beautiful build)

I`m hard trying imagine for what reason you are building that "outer" harness, if not for building a second, or more models, where you need to exactly position the basic contours, like gun ports, wales  etc....

Amalio,

 

It looks magnificent. The inner mold/form looks as good as a model on itself. That must have taken some time to prepare. I will wait patiently for the moment you will slide the different sections from the mold, and put it back together agian!

This maybe an unusual way of framing a hull, Amalio, but the result show that its a good method.

It is a way of constructing that it is very trustworthy and comfortable since in the first phase, only we have to worry about the adjustment of the frame in his interior form. The exterior we it will fit when we have a group of complete finished frames. Of this form the thickness of the frame is controlled very well, without fear of remaining without wood especially in the zones of prow and stern. In addition, we can do any movement with the whole structure without dread to which nothing messes up of his site

The mold can be had prepared in approximately one month. We have to bear in mind that to the forms that give us in the plane, it is necessary to discount the thick ones, both of the frames and of the keel, and do checkings with insoles of carton both to port and to starboard. To never forget that what we are going to do is the form of the interior of the hull.

Amalio,

 

your positive model is so awsome to look at....... fantastic handcraft work, a lovely ship !!!

 

nevertheless I have given up to straign my mind, what you are doing the outer mold for, of couse it fits like a second outer skin........, hopefuly you will provide the solution to that thrilling "riddle" of yours soon. I trust you have an mighty ace-card up your sleeve....

I've just discovered your log: what fascinating 'inside-out' way to construct a model! I've never seen this done before and it looks like an excellent method. However, it would require a lot of very careful planning and extremely accurate craftsmanship. Obviously you possess both skills, Amalio.

Amalio,

 

At the stern it looks as if you have given  more form to the wood, than at the bow. It looks more smooth.

 

I saw some very interesting naval/nautical paintings at your wall
