KORTES

The oil has dried out. Color in natural light.

Yes, a very beautiful  hull.

Basically, I have finished the longboat. I don’t see the point in further detalisation. There will anyway be a boat on top. I didn’t do the the rudder as well, because I don’t have to install it anyway. All that’s left is to cover it with oil.

hope you can re-use some of the planks Kortes

Unfortunately I couldnt use the boards the second time. Maybe they will come in handy for the covering of a small lifeboat.

I went back to the old technology. And got the expected result. Now the filling has to be done.

I made a technological mistake and here is the result. I will have to try again.🙂
 Meanwhile I am tuning the Proxxon circular saw, a gift for the New Year. Some components are very crude and require some changes. My best regards

The first option went to the trash can. The form seems to be sheathed well, but it’s impossible to remove the shell. Something hasn’t been done fully probably. Apparently I will have to remake the form, and make it from three parts that can be disassembled.

While the oil is drying out, I decided to start with the boat and longboat. I made two “pieces” and now deciding which manufacturing method to choose.

As expected,  the wood has changed color, the complete drying out , will be in two weeks,  I guess

I have coated the deck and deck elements with oil.

The bollards were quite challenging to make. I tried several options until I found the right installation method.

I have built shelves for storing cannonballs. I will use balls from bearings as cannonballs, I bought two sizes for carronades and for cannons. After blackening they look quite good.

 Restoration.

Concomitant damage. I was too quick to install it, while I was working on the wheel ,deck organizer was damaged. 

I have finished the ladder.

I made outdoor ladders.

Thank you my dear friends for the evaluation of my work.
I've made a helm table.

The tiller was made in two options , I decided to go with the one made of pear.

Greetings my dear Colleagues, I would like to show some works on tge steering wheel .
I made the hinges of the helm and sternpost hinges according to the generally accepted technology.
 

A very clean job.

I have made fish davits.

Thank you my friends.

I would like to present some developments on the latrine, there are some points that are not the way they should be, but i ran out of inspiration to redo it.

Greeting my dear colleagues ! I'm very grateful for your high marks. I also have great respect for hand crafts, but when you need to cut several identical elements by hand, it's quite stressful.

Dear Gery , all of your works are outstanding in their highest mastery and are a true delightful the eye. I'm very glad that we will have a chance to witness and see another great model from You. My very best regards.
