pete48 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Share #181 Posted February 8, 2016 Today, I finished making the Spars ( Mast and Boom ) I started by making 2 new spreaders ( I did not like how the first ones turned out ) I then drilled the hole's for the standing rigging and finalized the sanding. Next I installed the spreaders and Gooseneck. Next will be to apply the first coat of varnish and to varnish the Hull ( 3rd coat ) Here are the results ggrieco, archjofo, canoe21 and 13 others 16 Quote "may your sails be full of wind and the sun on your back" Current Builds : Future Builds : N.G Herreshoff 12 1/2 Scratch Build 3/4" = 1' - 0" Scale Completed Builds : Volvo 65 Farr Yacht Design Herreshoff Alerion Herreshoff Buzzards Bay 14 Volvo Open 70 Member : The Herreshoff Registry Montgomery Sailboat Owners Group Peter Kunst Sailboat Models http://www.herreshoffregistry.org/ http://www.msog.org/ http://www.facebook.com/Peter-Kunst-Sailboat-Models-1524464774524480/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piet Posted February 9, 2016 Share #182 Posted February 9, 2016 Nice going Pete. Hope the round works wont warp on you later. To answer your question about me being a commercial pilot - negative to that. I didn't want to be a bus driver, - oh sorry Sjors, no offense intended. It was just too boring and I like working with my hands. I have flown planes from a single seat home build to the Boeing 757. The last 20 plus years in my aviation career was being an airworthiness safety inspector for the FAA and in that capacity learned to fly the "heavy iron" to check pilot proficiency and aircraft performance after major repairs and mods. Now I enjoy working with wood and build ships. Cheers, mtaylor, Elijah, Jack12477 and 2 others 5 Quote Piet, The Flying Dutchman.

michael mott Posted February 10, 2016 Share #187 Posted February 10, 2016 Thanks Pete, the reason I asked is to compare it to the gaff rigged mast. at the step it is elliptical 5 inches on one axis an 4 1/2 on the other tapering to round at the peak at 3 1/2. I think a Gaff mast is a bit heavier than a Marconi one, but I could be out to lunch on that. michael Elijah, pete48, Piet and 2 others 5 Quote Current builds Bristol Pilot Cutter 1:8; Skipjack 19 foot Launch 1:8; Herreshoff Buzzards Bay 14 1:8 Other projects Pilot Cutter 1:500 ; Maria, 1:2 Now just a memory Future model Gill Smith Catboat Pauline 1:8 Finished projects A Bassett Lowke steamship Albertic 1:100 Anything you can imagine is possible, when you put your mind to it.

pete48 Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share #195 Posted February 28, 2016 Today, After another coat of Varnish was applied to the Spars ( Mast and Boom ) I turned my attention to installing the Cockpit coamings. I started by finalizing the fit. I then made the brace that fits between the Coamings on the forward bulkhead. Next, I made the forward Coaming block, I ( once satisfied with the fit ) I installed the coamings brace and block. I then stained the block and brace cherry red. Next will be to varnish the Cockpit Coamings.
