Piet Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share #1923 Posted April 1, 2015 Thanks everybody for your comments and likes, much appreciated. I put one more thin coat of stain on the trim molding and it seems to improve it some. I did a test piece without the conditioner and it seemed a little better, still not penetrating into the wood the way I expect a die to do. Hey, this is soft pine and should soak the stuff up like a sponge. I like the color but not the unevenness. I tried using a leather die Remco recommended for the teak deck slats for the O19 and that works real great. It's a water based die but the color has an dark orangie tint to it and not really suitable for this board. However, if a water based die works better then an oil based die then I could possible go to plan C and rip all the molding off and and use a water based die - - - only after I try it first Provided I can find a dark water based die. Have to do some searching in the Internet. Cheers, GLakie and IgorSky 2 Quote Piet, The Flying Dutchman.

SawdustDave Posted April 1, 2015 Share #1924 Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Piet....Before you give up on it, just give it a good sanding with a medium grit to open up the grain a little. Then apply your stain with a cloth....wiping with the grain. Then use a fine sandpaper to sand lightly. Steel wool to get really fine finish.

Piet Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share #1925 Posted April 2, 2015 Oh, I'm not yet giving up Dave and will bring this board with me for the big show. I have done everything that's normally involved with staining. There's something with this wood that won't allow the oil based stain to penetrate deep into the wood. This morning I used a piece of hard wood to rub over it and saw an oily mass being pushed ahead of the wood, yet it feels dry. I decided to go ahead and finish it with the poly urethane finish and make up my mind how to proceed from here, later. I think I need to find some water based stain to give that a try.

Piet Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share #1928 Posted April 3, 2015 Thanks for the URL's Carl even the one in Dutch Just wonder how much the shipping charges will be AND if the airlines can transport spritus based stuff. I'll do some more digging whenever I find the time between all the extra things I'm involved with - - - outside of modeling I have put two coats of poly on the board and it's not looking all that bad. Some more sanding and a few more very light thin coats then I'll cal it quits. I'll deal with plan C after I come back from the Fayetteville shindig in two weeks. I'm looking forward to it but hope my old Chevy S10 will hold up. The O19 is too long for the Buick so I'll have use the old truck.

cog Posted April 3, 2015 Share #1929 Posted April 3, 2015 Piet!!! I didn't know (for people less familliar with the Amercan colloquial, like me self): Shinding A small party, not quite full scale. Generally a shindig consists of 5-20 people hanging out at the host's house, but they may be held at other locations such as a beach. Shindigs almost always involve alcoholic beverages, usually beer. Often, marijuana is smoked as well. :o Jack12477, mtaylor, Piet and 2 others 5 Quote Carl "Desperate affairs require desperate measures." Lord Nelson Search and you might find a log ...

Piet Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share #1932 Posted April 5, 2015 Cut it out you guys, you are cracking me up Well, Carl, I hope there'll be hundreds of people attending this auction. There may be beer but no weed. George, you can contact SawdustDave, he is building the Sovereign of the Seas. He is the organizer and has all the details. It'll be quite ride from where you are but there is always the airlines. I'm watching out alright Popeye. Oh yeah, Frankie and Annette, remember them well - that's when I owned a nice '55 Chevy BellAir.. Loved to cruise downtown Red Bank, New Jersey, hoping to attract one of the fair maidens By the way, the build board now has three thin coats of poly on it. Some more sanding and a few more coats. I may even have to buy a new can of that stuff. It's surprisingly not looking too bad. But plan C is still in the future.

Piet Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share #1935 Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks Dave and Carl for your comments. Well, Dace, in one of my past lives I acted in 3 three act off-Broadway plays, so yes, I am a ham and not shy with radio or TV I'm just nervous with having the model in the back of the S-10 pickup. Thinking of a lightly inflated air mattress with a few pillows on the sides for lateral support. The VOC ship can take some jolting but will be placed on an old mattress cover. The two small models go into a box with the bases tied to the bottom. Truck will go to the fixit shop for a checkover, just to be sure I can make it up to Fayetteville in one piece No Carl, no shidig, no booze, no weed but you can still come on over Yuns don't know this but actually I knew my dear Gwen since 1948! She was 7 years old then and I was already an old man of 14. I used to read bedtime stories to her when I was sleeping over. Her older brother and I were good friends and besides, I had eyes on her oldest sister who was also in my MULO class. We lost sight of her family after I emigrated to the USA in 1957. Long story this but after 53 year being together she's still putting up with me I put # 4 poly coat on the board today and put the O19 on it. It's not looking too bad. I'm also on the look-out for an engraver who can do the name plate in brass. Have't found one yet here locally. I have another thought though, raised lettering! If I can find brass letters and numbers then I can solver solder them to a brass plate. I could actually cut them out myself - - - very labor intensive work though.

Piet Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share #1936 Posted April 7, 2015 I quit adding more polly, it looks rather presentable for the Fayetteville event in a few weeks. Plan C is still being contemplated, just need to find the right dye. Thanks to you who have given me the suggestions. I have been busy with other things in the last few days, not only domestic chores but also doctor appointments. Got some very good news about the prostate cancer issue, that seems to have disappeared altogether. One more annual visit for next year and after that I'm cut loose. Tomorrow is a pre-op for the bladder cancer and the end of April I'll get the cysto for an inside look. Let's hope that it looks as good if not better then 2 months ago. In any case, I mounted the O19 onto the newly made and finished display board and took it outside for a picture. I know, I should have added this to the profile part but so what, yuns can see how she looks on the board.

Well Mark, I'm not too thrilled with the molding but will have to wait till after I come back from Fayetteville, N.C. next week. I haven't even looked for water or alcohol based stains yet. Dave, the models are all stowed in the truck and I hope to shove off between 0600 and 0630 tomorrow morning. It's gonna be a boring ride all by myself. Yeah, I'll be careful alright, it's the other drivers I'm worried about. Hello Jack, good seeing you again and yes please, go play catch-up. I'm actually doing the same thing and am at page 59 now.
