BANYAN got a reaction from Jeronimo in Carving from Belgorod
Very nice work - great detail. It's a pity the customer took the lion before you completed it but I do look forward to your next effort.
cheers

BANYAN got a reaction from russ in HMB Endeavour by BANYAN - FINISHED - Artesania Latina - 1:60 - circa 1768
OK folks, repairs completed. I decided to simply reslot the channel as the boat boom (when fitted later) will mask any obvious repair marks.
The following photos show most of the process. I temporarily pinned the affected shroud to keep it clear and prevent any slackening of the ratlines etc. I then removed the chain plate, slotted the channel capping in preparation for the repaired chain plate, cleaned up the fitting and resoldered the padeye ring to the chains, then refitted the assembly. I used a scrap piece of wood to create the 'plug' in the channel capping then rerove a new lanyard and touched up with paint. One of the benefits of painting is that it can hide these joints
What do you think?

Thanks Mark, I am still debating whether to take the full length of the capping off the channel or just cut a slot and replace it after repairing the chain plate, and using the boat boom (when fitted later) to assist in masking the joints. I am worried that in attempting to remove the full length of capping that I may cause even further damage and with all the rigging on the mast near complete, that would be a tremendous setback.

One of my recent work. British Lion.
Unfortunately, this work at this stage and over. To finish before the end of it will be gone. It so happened that I met with the customer and showed him how things were going with the lion. And the customer has not yet decided to take the unfinished threads. He liked the state of incompleteness. And he asked to cut another lion before the end. But there's more to come. I hope I can with the time and show a complete lion.
Hopefully interpreter translated understandable.

Mark, you're setting a great example in the art of being willing to work over what was complete and to constantly improve. Great stuff, mate!

Thanks for the comments and the "likes".
Good eye, Druxey. It's not the counter.. it's that framing piece I put in. It's about 1 mm too wide and sticks out too far. Rats.... Easy to fix though.
Edit of the edit: close inspection shows a tolerance build up. I'll fix it during the planking as the light on the port side is about 1 mm too wide. Not sure what happened but it's easily fixed.
Actually, gentlemen, I've become even harder on myself and bolder in redos as my scrap box will testify. But it's all good. I'm also accepting the "dings"...

Yeh,Those zoomed in photos show up way too much.
I give myself a shock every time I look at one of mine,
after I post in my log. Need to take a proper look before posting.
Should be banned outright.

Hi Pat,
Love the puddening. I tried twice on my anchors, 8 attempts, and was never satisfied with the results. Yours look spot on.
Cheers

Nice job on the repair Pat. No one will ever know it was ever needed, except us of course.

Thanks John, Chris and Mark - glad I was able to recover it. Looking at the photos though show how uneven the line of the deadeyes are - not very seaman like - they actually don't look as bad in reality.

i again Paul,
I have found the lathe invaluable, not just for the jobs you have already identified, but also for creating profiles/mouldings, canon carriages, ship's wheel etc. I have found the Sherline an excellent tool - quality +
Sorry mate, wasn't trying to infer that you didn't know it was expensive, just pointing out that for a small job such as the mice/buoys it might not have been value for money. PM me if you need further info. I think it is worth considering if you have some spare pocket money )
cheers

What a boon that laser cutter is Mark; the new piece is such a dramatic improvement. Now, can you loan it to me to remove (cut away) the capping from my midship channel

Can't even tell that it was broken and then fixed, Pat. Excellent repair.
BTW, your puddening looks great.
