Got 4 or five sets. They are not more or less difficult than this drainage mill. Got them through another site dhm besides that I've got a book on their construction and use with the accompanying plans unfortunately OOP. One of the sets is the 8kante poldermolen so you can still build another 3

cog reacted to Omega1234 in Genesis by Omega1234 - FINISHED - 1/300 - 49 m Mega Yacht
Hi folks
Thanks for all of your Likes and comments. Appreciated, as always.
I decided to have a go at doing Genesis’ RIB tender. The photos are pretty self-explanatory, but suffice to say, there’s a fair way to go, before I can call this tender ‘finished’. It’s a start, though.
Have a great night.
Cheers.
Patrick

The red circled one is for the stairs that go down the side of the ship ( I believe) , I have no idea what the blue is for but would suffice.

cog reacted to G.L. in Fishing Smack c. 1920 by G.L. - FINISHED - Scale 1/20 - POF - cross-section
Part 17:The outside planking
Time to plank the model at the outside.
I make the division between the garboard strake and the stringers. There will be seven planks, so I measure the distance on the forward frame between the two with a strip of paper.
I use a fan planking template to determine the seven plank widths on this frame...
... and mark the division on the frame.
I do the same on the after frame and start to plank. I work from the sides to the middle and mark the position of the frames on each plank. That will help me later to determine the positions for the tree nails.
First part completed.
The whole starboard side planked
I will leave open two holes in the planking of the port side to give sight on the frames.
Outside planking completed.
Before I can start to tree nail, I have to spend an afternoon splitting bamboo and pull the sticks through the draw plate to supplement my stock of tree nails.
Drilling the nail holes
and inserting the bamboo nails
The nailed hull
After sanding

Part 16: Finishing the main deck structure
The deck beams are prepared. The only remaining job is making the carlings and the horizontal knees.
Sawing the knees with the fretsaw and finishing them with the Dremel.
Knees and carlings placed.
Some explanation

EZ-line is almost a "must" if you want to do the rigging without the look of mooring lines
