Recommended Posts

I'm going to my room and lie down for a bit.  My brain is numbed by what I just saw.  Amazing isn't enough to describe it.

A woodmill is where wood is sawn into beams or planks, often called mill or sawmill

Hi Igor

 

How are you?  If you get a chance, could you please indicate how you made your steering wheel?  If so, that'd be great, because I really struggle with these items, whereas you've done a brilliant job.

 

Hopefully, this is okay with you.

 

Cheers

 

Patrick

Thanks Mark, Patrick, Bob and to all who are interested in this project!

 

The next step - the making of the lifeboats. I need to make 2 lifeboat and I'm starting to do them at the same time, so that eventually they should be the same.

Hi Igor,

 

Love the detail work in this build and I am still recovering from the pictures of your completed bridge! Great stuff!

 

Ships boats also look wonderful and thank you for showing your method for making them.  I hope you don't mind if I borrow your method to make a boat for my build!

 

Cheers,

 

Nigel.

Hi Igor,

 

Nothing so advanced as that tiny boat! I just want to make a ships boat for my Red Dragon Chinese junk.  :)

 

If I understand your pictures, you made up your ships boats by forming a bottom layer and then shaping it.  You then added the thwarts, bow and stern pieces and used them to support the final layer of planking.

 

Is that right or did I miss an important step?

 

Cheers,

 

Nigel.

Hi Carl,

I think you're exaggerating ))

I also think that each one of us can do almost anything. The main thing - just to start doing it ))

In my methods is nothing improbable or difficult. It's just a set of simple steps and elements.

 

Best Regards!

Igor.
