Fantastic results of a very unorthodox method.

Isn't there a big risc to damage the planking during the demolitian of the internal structure.

 

It would be very interesting if you could give us more information about your method.

Brilliant results. You mentioned earlier that the journey and not the end was more important, your work shows that both are like hand in glove.

Hi Amalio, very nice work, so original. I have two questions.

 

 What are the benefits of arming in this way? Using the internal block hull, contrary to the most usual way. Because in a first look, I think you waste or use more time than the other.
 

 And second, are you drawing a kind of monography of this Ship? I know the are so many plans of this ships. But you have to built frames, templates and drawing of so many pieces. Are you considering doing a monograph?

 

 Saludos

Amalio,

 

I don't know if anyone has asked this question, but considering all the material I am very qurious about the weight as it is right now and your estimated final weight?

She is a big lady and once she is done you will need a sturdy display.
