  1. The etchings are made by a Czech company that is professionally engaged in the production of etchings. But the design of the etchings is my own, i.e. the company will make the etchings exactly according to my requirements.
  2. Hi Mark, the metal hinges are made from brass etched parts. Vladimir
  3. I continue with the aft deck. The "production" procedure will basically copy the procedure for the fore deck.
  4. The dust that is created during milling can be easily removed with a brush and debonder (CA glue is used to glue the foil). I continue by installing the front bulkhead and making the front lower deck.
  5. Windows - the last part on the stern, then I will continue on the inside of the hull. I chose the same method as for Le Gross Ventre - a frame made of two halves, in one half a pocket is milled for embedding plastic foil. After gluing, the whole is milled on both sides to the required thickness.
  6. Thank you guys . Continuation of work on the stern - molding rails.
  7. Thank you druxey. I continue with the planking of the stern. First it was necessary to make another rather complicated part defining the extension of the sides at the stern. The part is "shaped" in all three axes and the production is quite complex.
  8. Thank you guys. To Chris - I don't like the black caulking between the planks to be too prominent, so the caulking here is created only by blackening the edge of the plank with a pencil so that it is not too prominent. The only exception is the planks on the decks, where the caulking is created with black paper. Here this color contrast makes a bit more sense (at least from my point of view). I continue by planing the "thicker" part of the bow.
