Hi Patrick, I tried to make the Cup for an interior of your yacht, but I think, I need to practise still :) Best Regards! Igor.

I assume that I will place the hull of this model in a bottle without masts. Then I will establish masts serially. But it is my assumptions since I didn't make the project of installation of masts and conducting of a rigging yet. And following the aforesaid I think that I will have to establish masts by means of pins. Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Mike, Unfortunately, I have no this book too, but I read article about lifeboats by Colin Archer in the magazine "Boat and Yacht" and there was a reference with two drawings from this book - http://lib.sportedu.ru/Mirrors/Www.katera.ru/172/172_10.htmlhttp://lib.sportedu.ru/Mirrors/Www.katera.ru/172/172_10.html Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Patrick, Yes,Yes, I tried to make a mast to check some constructive methods. On the photo you can see: 1. the heel of the mast with the diameter from 1 to 0,6 mm. I used a bamboo for it because a bamboo stronger than a usual tree and I will need to drill some bores in a mast which will reduce its strength. 2. cross element for installation of additional guys (it seems is called in English the crosspiece , but I am not sure). I used a medical needle with a diameter of 0,4 mm. A little later I will heat it that metall became soft. 3. boring bit with a diameter of 0,3 mm. 4. bamboo toothpick. I have no holder for such boring bit therefore I made a bore in the bamboo toothpick with a diameter of 0,5 mm and pasted a boring bit in a bore. Thus I received the manual tool. 5. boring bit with a diameter of 0,5 mm So I made a bore with a diameter of 0,3 mm and expanded it by means of the sharp end of a medical needle. My following task to try to stretch 2 thin threads through a needle. Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Michael, A lot of thanks for good words! Sometimes these so tiny details that I almost don't see them. And the most important - them it is impossible to leave without supervision because they aim to be lost somewhere )) Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Bob, Welcome to a board, captain! I think your real place at a steering wheel, of course. )) Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Mike, I expect continuation of your construction. And incidentally I saw the drawing of RS from the book by Tor Borch Sannes, “Batbyggeren Colin Archer”, Norsk Maritimt Forlag, 1984 Best Regards! Igor.

Yes, Patrick, I have the same problem. I come to despair when I see parts of my models in big increase. But I am consoled by that fact that other audience doesn't see these details in big increase :) Good weekend! Igor.

Hi Bob, If I found a bottle of such size and placed in it a schooner of such size, on this photo I would stand on the deck :) Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Patrick, It is excellent! OK, I will try to think up something still. For example, let's imagine that it is the yacht in 1935 and in its saloon there is a Cup of America won in 1934 :) I incidentally found couple of photo of the last replica Rainbow: Best Regards! Igor.

Hi Patrick, It is magnificent! Perhaps, to add to the yacht interior some pictures and a photos on walls? )) Best Regards! Igor.

Railings... I tried two options, possible for me, - from a thin wire and with application of photoetched details for models in scale 1:700. I think that on the model I will use the second option. But I think to add to photoetched details of the racks from a wire.

Hi Matija, A lot of thanks for a compliment! I often think that I already reached a limit too, but then I try to use other materials, other tools, other technologies and it appears that I was mistaken .

Small progress today. For the boat I need to make a windshield. I used for this purpose thin transparent plastic and a brass wire with a diameter of 0,15 mm. Now I can establish a steering wheel and a windshield on the boat, to compare the new boat with old and to try to set it on the deck.

For the first big boat I made a steering wheel (a big steering wheel:)). For the second small boat I tried to make the small steering wheel. I used a brass wire 0,15 mm thick and a boring bit with the diameter of 0,5 mm.

Hi Patrick, Thanks for good words! I yet not absolutely finished the build the build of the deckhouse. It is required to establish windows, to complete brass lattices at light windows and so forth. But now I continue to build the new boat:
-
My first attempt to make the boat for the ATLANTIC appeared not absolutely successful. The boat turned out too big therefore I decided to make it again.
-
Hi, everybody! I continue construction the first of deck superstructures Also I start doing the second of them

Thanks Patrick! Now came time for production of small details. Small details sometimes demand a lot of time for considering and production, but progress in these cases is almost imperceptible. )) Bets Regards! Igor.
