Hi Bob, Mike, Michael and Nils! Many thanks for your good words and all LIKEs!!! Mike, of course I still have a long way to the title of master, and I am still only a student now )) Yes, Niels, you'll have the opportunity to see this process in my next posts)) So, I am continuing. On Friday evening, I once again checked all the details, I fixed some of the rigging and I prepared the lower part of the body for the placing in the bottle.

"Sweetbrier, a 180-foot Iris or C-class tender, was built in Duluth Minnesota by the Marine Iron and Shipbuilding Company. Her keel was laid on 3 November 1943 and she was launched on 30 December 1943" Thank you Patrick! On spring I have contacted with Bernd Jocham and bought this set of drawings of "Sir Winston Churchill"

Hi Patrick! I am not sure that it will be soon, because I have now the three projects in progress that I need to finish - ATLANTIC, RS 1 and LENA. But I collect materials for the building of two ships - Sir Winston Churchill and USCGC SWEETBRIER (WLB-405). Best Regards! Igor.

quote name="Omega1234" post="349856" timestamp="1443021130"] The zodiac was far easier than you'd think. Here's how - Beneath the waterline was a shallow v shaped hull onto which I glued plastic rods to simulate the rigid, but round inflatable sides of the hull. From there, I added the centre console and seat with the radar supports above the outboard motor at the rear. Hope this helps! Thank you Patrick! I think that at least for two of my prospective future projects I will need to make the zodiacs. Best Regards! Igor.

WOW!!! Patrick you have carried the my thoughts about stand! And I still can not understand how you made the Zodiac! Bravo Patrick!!

Patrick, I used the needles from the syringe of different diameters. I cut short pieces and glued them on the ends of the boom. And every time I try to use the different ways of attaching the boom to the mast.

Hi Tom, I just wanted to offer to moisten the sail white glue diluted with water. This will give it a shape. It is also possible to make the sail from a thin cloth (percale. Epoxy. I have used the epoxy resin several times. I have dyed it with using the gel from pens.

Thanks Michael! Yes, you're right - it needs a very small amount of material. It's one of the nice sides of the building of SIB. )) Best Regards! Igor.
