Keith Simmons Posted March 13, 2016 Share #250 Posted March 13, 2016 Today, I, started by adding the piece of Birch ply to the Transom, wich I had pre-cut. Next I laid out the parts that make up the Base of the Keel. ( this was something that I wanted to get right this time around ) I then cut out the parts and installed them. I then Faired all the frames. Next will be to make up the Keel section and add the Garboard, Followed by the Sheer plank. then were off and running to plank the rest of the Boat. Here are the results Although I am in the middle of two builds at the moment, This frame has inspired me to start another one soon, don't care if it takes me years to complete, need to make a real frame... mtaylor, Elijah, pete48 and 2 others 5 Quote Current build: A Battleship Past builds: The Unicorn - The Lindworm - Malahini - Shinobi Maru - The MaryJane - The Weeligstraal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allanyed Posted October 9, 2020 Share #257 Posted October 9, 2020 Arthur Welcome to MSW. Please post an intro on the new members forum, you will get a warm welcome. You may want to PM Pete for information but also, there is a sizeable collection of many L. Francis Herreshoff plans at Mystic Seaport, so you might want to contact them as well to see what is available and the cost. Or just do a search on the net for information on the BB 14 . I found the following Googling Buzzard Bay 14 in a few seconds and there appeared to be a lot more that might be of help once you have the plans and start a build. https://www.artisanboatworks.com/classic-designs/sailboats/buzzards-bay-14 Allan mtaylor 1 Quote PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series. Click on http://trafalgar.tv There is no cost other than the 30 seconds of your time. THANK YOU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramaser Posted October 25, 2020 Share #259 Posted October 25, 2020 On 11/1/2015 at 8:52 PM, pete48 said: After some time away from model building ( about 3 months ), I finally have enough of a break to get a start on building the Buzzards Bay 14ftr. Designed by L. Francis Herreshoff. This will be my 3rd build log on this topic ( I have always had an admiration for this Boat ), However this build will be done in the upside down fashion.( the other 2 were built using a Keel/strongback setup ), I belive that building the Boat in this manner will ( the same as if it were built full scale ), will give a more accurate boat. I started by setting up the building jig, Cutting out the frames and setting them up in the jig. Here are the results yvesvidal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
