kruginmi got a reaction from jct in HMS Druid by Krug - FINISHED - 1:48 - Hahn
RIght now I have no plans to. This hull has been around for 8 years (assembled) and been very stable so far. Also, there are already regions I am unable to adequately reach. With basswood really need some sort of sealer.
This whole ship has been a learning experience for me. Most items (where possible) are doweled or positioned with clamps as opposed to glue to allow some movement. I attach an internal pic of the orlop deck which has survived with no ill effects so far.
Loving the hobby,
Mark

Greetings (again). Returning to MSW after a bit of off time (eg I just completed my 5th sprint triathlon). I have not been idle and have lately been kicking it into high gear with my version of the HMS Druid. Believe it or not, started in 2003 (two kids and a couple of homes ago) but looking to finish in the first quarter, 2014. I have loved every minute I have spent - probably a little over 300 hours so far.
I just finished with the bow assembly (sans the eking rail which will wait until the cathead is affixed). Previous to that was the stern caprail. I believe I am on the downhill of this build. Next up is finishing the rudder metal work and then working up from the berthdeck finishing all the details.
Additionally I have made progress on my Lady Anne and finished the DaVinci wing (currently on display at the Michigan Aviation Academy), but that will be a subject for another day.
