Moonbug got a reaction from Piet in Licorne 1755 by mtaylor - 3/16" scale - French Frigate - from Hahn plans - Version 2.0 - TERMINATED
Looks well worth the effort of the re-do. Nicely done. Interested to see how it ends up with the planking, etc.

what a taffy pull.........which way do I go.....! I want to finish painting the hull.....but I can't do that.......I need to build the roof! the windows are still another chink in the armor...........do you know.......neither of the two major grocery chains in our area carry future floor wax! not to worry though.....I think I found something that will work...this isn't over yet!
in the meantime......I started to cut up the mahogany strips to create the shingles. so, that's another ongoing process.
I don't need super long pieces......it will make things easier. since the roof is such a big issue with getting the boat painted, I'll put together the main part of it and finish it while the paint work is being done. the base is together......next is the front and rear eves
the front was made in advance.......once cemented in place, the back one was created. later, the peak beam was cemented in. then I did some framing foe the back fascia.
then some framing for the front fascia
roof rafters were the next to add to the roof.
next will be to get some covering on it.........I think with what I've got here, to cover it will be plenty strong enough.

Moonbug got a reaction from BETAQDAVE in Syren by JesseLee - FINISHED - Model Shipways - scale: 1:64
Hello Jesse... sorry to hear about the feline intrusion. I just wanted to let you you know I've used the suggestion Capt Steven makes: stocking / pantyhose over the end of a vacuum hose trick in the past and it works quite well.
Good luck,

Appreciate the comment! The stagecoach is fun and something different, but is not a ship. *laff*

Jesse. There was a post here on MSW that I recall seeing some time ago which may hopefully help you ...
The suggestion was to put some stocking material over the end of your vacuum cleaner. Then clean around the area. The stocking should stop any small pieces from disappearing into the nether regions of your vacuum bag.
