Hi Carl and Mark, I am flattered with your assessment of this model, but it is rather just toy, than model. I only want to check my some thoughts and to try to execute them. I think excessive miniaturization has side effects and I was compelled considerably to simplify some details. But I tried to make the boat 3 mm long and now I understand that it is possible and that it else is necessary to change to receive the best result. Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Patrick, TThanks for good words! I am not sure that I will use paint because in such scale is necessary very good paint which lays down very thin layer. Best Regards! Igor.

Many thanks, Mike! I have found some drawings and a photos in your build log. Besides, I found in the kitchen of my flat the interesting bottle, but it is still filled with olive oil. I tried to adapt the drawing to the bottle size and it appear that the size of model will about 60 mm. But now I only am going to build this model in future and I don't know yet when I will start doing it. Best Regards! Igor. P.S. Perhaps it will be interesting to you to look at some more photos of this boat: https://www.flickr.com/photos/redningsselskapet/sets/72157630328871386 https://www.flickr.com/photos/redningsselskapet/sets/72157630328871412 https://www.flickr.com/photos/redningsselskapet/sets/72157630296322560

Hi Mike, Every time when I watch your scratch build log, my desire to make the RS14 model in a bottle becomes more. I look forward to continuations. Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Bob, It is magnificent! I am not sure, but it seems to me that at such design of the deck usually there is the board along the axial line of the deck. What kind of tree you use for the deck? I like to use a light pear because it rather solid and it is possible to make accurate edges of planks. Also it allows to make seams between the planks very thin and accurate. What width of the planks which you use for the deck? Best Regards! Igor.

Thanks, Jeff!

Hi Matt, I will try to make such photo in next time. But all these fine details aren't fixed on the deck therefore I am not sure. Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Carl, The sizes of model are limited to the sizes of a bottle and in this case the length of model can't be more than 105 mm. Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Jeff, Can you tell in what month 1932 this article was printed? I could find articles by Capt. E. Armitage McCann in magazines for May and June, 1932, but it seems are other articles. Best Regards! Igor.

Yes, Patrick, pencil with a diameter of 0,02 mm... the map 3,5 x 3 mm... Perhaps, really there is no sense to try to do them )) Best Regards! Igor.

Patrick, In what scale is your yacht? And if to put a sea map and sailing directions on a table? But then perhaps you will want to add a protractor, a ruler and a pencil )) Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Carl, Carl and Matt, A lot of thanks for your words of approval and an appreciation! Carl, I used a steering wheel from the set of the photoetched details. It is deameter 2 mm. Matt, OK, I will try to do a photo of details near a coin. You are familiar with the European coins? Now I can report that diameter of a steering wheel of 2 mm, diameter of the basis of a binnacle of 1,5 mm. Diameter of the binnacle is 1 mm. The total height of a binnacle is 2 mm. Best Regards! Igor.
