JesseLee Posted October 24, 2015 Author #31 Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Made the masts & spars. I tied an old method of tying thread through the bottom of the masts & through 2 small holes through the hull (in the mast holes). Forgot to take some close-up picks of this. The thread "hinges" are knotted in a small hollowed out spot underneath the hull. Adding rigging as I went.....

JesseLee Posted October 24, 2015 Author #32 Posted October 24, 2015 Started making the sails. Dipped them in coffee. As always when coloring sails with coffee or tea do a dip/wash with baking soda in water to neutralize the acids. Sometime during these steps the glass bulb I was working with broke. They had come in packs of 4 & this was the 4th one. This ended the build last year. Sometimes the glass would break while working with it & sometimes it would break on it's own when I wasn't even at the workbench. The picture shows how a typical break was. I was very upset because I didn't get it done in time to put on the Christmas Tree. This pack of Christmas bulbs were bought at Wal Mart. Decide to Try some from a different store the next season & try it again. One year later (about a month or 2 ago this year) got some more from Hobby Lobby hoping they wont be as thin. The next posting will be where I picked the build back up this year. dgbot, mtaylor, GLakie and 3 others 6 Quote Current build: Syren : Kit- Model Shipways Side project: HMS Bounty - Revel -(plastic) On hold: Pre-owned, unfinished Mayflower (wood) Past builds: Scottish Maid - AL- 1:50, USS North Carolina Battleship -1/350 (plastic), Andromede - Dikar (wood), Yatch Atlantic - 14" (wood), Pirate Ship - 1:72 (plastic), Custom built wood Brig from scratch - ?(3/4" =1'), 4 small scratch builds (wood), Vietnamese fishing boat (wood) & a Ship in a bottle

JesseLee Posted October 27, 2015 Author #34 Posted October 27, 2015 Got a different set of Christmas bulbs made by a different company from a different store this year, Began the process over again. glued the bottom label disc in. Painted the space between, got the sea bed base in. The Rouse Simmons carried Christmas trees so I wanted to show some on this build. Made some Christmas trees to put on deck by trimming the tip of a pipe cleaner- (being a pipe smoker I've got these laying around). Clipped them off & painted them. They were shipped bundled by tying them up with ropes so I rapped some very thin thread around them.

JesseLee Posted October 27, 2015 Author #35 Posted October 27, 2015 Another thing I did different was I didn't make any kind of jig or base to hold the ship down while I worked on it. Just wanted to try it to see easy or hard it would be this way. I was able to do it but I highly recommend not doing it this way It was much more irritating- especially doing the rigging. After gluing the sea baser in. The !st bulb out of the pack of 4 bought this year was found broken open one morning much like the picture before showed. That was now 5 bulbs broken. Got the 6th one out & for the 6th time started it all over again. Began to wonder if this would be possible at all, Repeated all these steps again & was now needing to figure out what I would do for the sea. After test fitting the ship in the neck - you guessed it- another break. This time it was just the neck itself. Very frustrated I was about to give up. Then I looked at the thin metal decorative cap that goes over the neck that holds the wire for hanging the ornament. When this piece is on it would completely hide this break. I decided I would finish this build & epoxy the neck back on & hide it all with the cap afterwards. The opening was still the same except it had a sharp edge I would need to be very careful with. I went with it...... dgbot, GLakie, Omega1234 and 5 others 8 Quote Current build: Syren : Kit- Model Shipways Side project: HMS Bounty - Revel -(plastic) On hold: Pre-owned, unfinished Mayflower (wood) Past builds: Scottish Maid - AL- 1:50, USS North Carolina Battleship -1/350 (plastic), Andromede - Dikar (wood), Yatch Atlantic - 14" (wood), Pirate Ship - 1:72 (plastic), Custom built wood Brig from scratch - ?(3/4" =1'), 4 small scratch builds (wood), Vietnamese fishing boat (wood) & a Ship in a bottle
JesseLee Posted October 29, 2015 Author #36 Posted October 29, 2015 Got a lot of the rigging done. Tried adding ratlines after looking into it. It just about drove me crazy. I used Fray Check to hold them all in place then went back & used very tiny amounts of CA on the ends of each one so that nothing would come loose when folded down to put through the neck. As I posted before my silicone sea didn't work out. I have been told that you can mix the color in it when applying. If I had know that then I would have used that method but since I didn't know it at the time I used Platalina modeling putty. I used as thin a layer as possible for 2 reasons. 1: in the past I found out that the pressure of putting it in & wave forming was enough to break the thin glass sides, 2: Weight. Putty is heavy for a Christmas Tree ornament so I wanted to keep as muck weight as possible out of this. Got a thin layer laid in. Put it in between our double paned windows on a sunny day The sun melted the putty down to the base & softened it so I could form the waves, ripples without much pressure so I wouldn't break through the thin glass sides. I did a lot of white aps because this ship sailed in the rough waters of Lake Michigan & these waters even sunk the ship in the end.

Omega1234 Posted November 2, 2015 #42 Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Hi Jesse Very nice!!! I must say, though, that of all the various genres of model boat building, it's SIBs that mystify and captivate me the most. I think it's got a lot to do with the "Whoa...I'm too scared to try that!" mentality that sticks in my mind. Well, maybe one day, I'll be brave enough to try one. Great job, though Jesse. Like Mark said, it's sure to look great hanging off your tree.
