HMS Bounty by UdoK


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

the last half Frames are roughly shaped and dry fitted to the hull structure.

 

Next is to adjust and glue them before moving on to the transom parts.

 

I wish a happy Easter weekend to all of you!

I have spend some spare time on the Bounty,

 

All the Frames are installed now, followed by the Transom wing.

I think it will be better to start fairing the hull before moving on to the transom parts to prevent damage as the parts are very fragile.

So, next is to copy the Body lines from the planes and prepare some templates for the sanding party.

Thank you Mike and Antony!

 

Unfortunately not much Progress to report, I'am still busy with sanding and fairing to prepare the hull for planking.

For me this is always the hardest part of modelship building, I don't like that at all.

 

But I guess everybody got his Favourites!!! ;)

Cheers,

Udo

Thank you for your Interest Antony!

 

Well, due to usual summer activities not much happend in the shipyard since the last update, but now the Bounty is back on the work bench.

I'am still busy with hull fairing and sanding, although the Frames were preshaped it is a lot left to sand.

A few Frames are undersized, don't know why, might be paper distortion from the copys or carelessness from my side. Anyway, got to fix those spots  with adding woodstrips and sanding.

 

Hopefully it will be done in a few days.....

Cheers,

Udo

Hi all, waiting time is over, it continues...

 

Although hull fairing has not been completed yet I have started to fit the transom parts to have a break from sanding.

 

To complete the hull fairing  a few more "low" spots on the Frames require attention. I will cut some left over material from Frame building to be cut to the Frame width, run it trough the thickness sander for approx. thickness and sand it to the hull shape after glueing.

Almost one year since the last upate, time goes by but the build is still alive.

 

Hull fairing has been completed, all the low frames are filled and sanded again. I have installed one another transom wing and a Piece of wood to support the planking around the rudder opening. Now on to the wales.....

 

In the last Picture you can see some damge on the false keel caused by the 'heavy sanding equipment' during hull sanding. I will probably replace the after part of the false keel after planking is completed.

Hi all,

It's time to do something on the Bounty again.

 

The lower transom is planked with the supplied pear wood planks. In order to obtain the lateral bending of the planks, I made a template with the required radius of the planks, soaked the planks in water and allowed them to dry in the template.

 

Before the first belt of the wales had been cut and attached I made some plank clamps from a brass rod, threated rod M 3 and cherry wood.
