Thanks, Phil! I tried my best. Thanks, Roel! I hope that nothing will stop me from showing something in about a month. Thank you, Alexander! Everything is in your hands. -
You're right, Chris, this model is made in the style of those distant years.
-
Yves , I think this picture will disappoint you a little, as here the stand takes on its usual dull appearance.
-
Unfortunately, the Cyclone destroyer will have to wait a little longer, as the next order is coming. But I will tell you about this a little later. That's true, I have already used this method for electroplating.
-
If 3D machines printed with copper or brass, I would have switched to working with them a long time ago.
-
And some more detailed photography...
-
So, my process has come to an end. The flag is raised on the ship, the project is finished!
-
Thank you, Druxey! Thanks, Keith! The customer really likes it. Thank you, Gary! I think I won't upset you too much because I'm going to continue our common interesting work.
-
The final stage of construction of the model is the installation of lifebuoys and letters of the ship's name.
-
In the stowed position, this griping spar was either secured to the deck or to davits, as shown earlier.
-
This is a griping spar for securing boats in a position extended over the side of the vessel.
-
I think it could have happened like this. To successfully take the boat overboard, this beam was lowered to the required level. At the same time, the beam remained connected to the davit and did not interfere with the work with the boat with its uncontrolled movements during the rocking of the ship.
-
I think that in addition to dry and secure storage, they could serve as guard rails. This concerns the boats on the rostra.
-
Yes, I expected this question. In some cases, this griping spar was attached for storage as I depicted in the model.
-
Lifeboats and workboats are installed in their designated places.
-
Yes, that's right. The boats will be covered from above.
-
Nils, I am posting my plans for a workboat and a lifeboat. Perhaps they will be useful to you.
-
Thank you Nils! I drew the drawing of the boat hull myself according to the reference data taken from the USSR GOST. I don't have a 3D printer and I don't know how to draw drawings for it. But I have friends who helped me solve this problem according to my drawings of the boats.
-
Lifeboats are custom-made using a 3D printer.
-
Thanks, Greg! These models are ordered by owners of private collections. I have not yet interacted with museums, but I know that they tend to acquire simpler and cheaper models.
-
Yes, Tony, there's not much left to finish the process. I need to make and assemble the parts of the rescue device and think about how to make the letters for the name.
-
The propeller is installed in its place together with the rudder.
-
After polishing and adjusting the blade profile, the propeller took on a finished look.
-
I then soaked the propeller in a citric acid solution for 30-45 minutes.
-
This is a photo of the propeller after the silver soldering process is complete.
