US Brig Syren by reklein - Model Shipways


Recommended Posts

I used Titebond on the deck I needed the woking time. That's the final finish you see. Its one coat of minwax golden oak. I like the slightly weathered,antiqued look.

Thanks Rich.

Coppering has begun. Hers my set up for embossing the copper. I just happened to have this handy tool on hand. Its a sensipress from NWSL. One could also use a small drill press. I feel it gives me better control than a hammer.

Well I completed the coppering and went on to some other stuff like the gunport lids, stern decoration and then got a start on the figurehead and head rails. I'm having a lot of fun.
