rafine Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share #152 Posted June 5, 2017 I have now completed the upper hull planking. Before beginning, I had to cut away three of the frames to allow for the small gunport openings. As with the previous belt, this was done with boxwood strips without taper, first edge bent and then bent again horizontally to fit the severe bow curve. This planking was done with a combination of 1/16" x5/32 ", 1/16" x 3/16" and 1/16" x 1/8" strips to fit the dimensions shown on the drawings. BTW, the Lumberyard provided pear strips to do this planking, but I didn't like the material supplied and chose to use boxwood that I had on hand. The treenailing was done as before. After treenailing, the area was final sanded and finished with a coat of Wipe-on Poly. No further work will be done on the outer hull at this point The next task is to cut the hull away from the jig.

Chuck Seiler Posted June 5, 2017 Share #156 Posted June 5, 2017 Bob, You paint the molding before you glue it into place, correct?

rafine Posted June 10, 2017 Author Share #162 Posted June 10, 2017 Rain, rain, and then more rain. That was the weather in sunny Florida for a week. Bad for golf, but good for modeling. With all that indoor time, I was able to get by a couple of tedious tasks. First, was cutting the hull loose from the framing jig. This proved more time consuming and difficult than I had imagined it would be. I first tried to do it with keyhole saw blades in an X-acto handle, but this seemed like it would be an endless job, and I have no patience for those. I rummaged through my tool box and found a Stanley handle with a hacksaw like blade and this ended up doing the trick, although still slowly and carefully. It is pictured below. After freeing the hull, I then turned to the task of fairing the interior. This turned out to be quite a chore, because the frames needed to be thinned considerably to reach their proper final proportions. Beginning with a Dremel with a sanding drum, and then using various grades of sandpaper with different sticks and blocks, and some freehand sanding as well, I worked my way through it. This took me days of tedious work. It's likely that I may still need some more work at the bow and stern as I proceed with interior work. My next job was to add the keelson. Although this is a laser cut part , it still required considerable fiddling and adjustment to get it to fit tightly and properly. Lastly, I added the first strakes of interior planking along the keelson in the hold area, just to get a feel for that process. I'm now deciding just what interior work to do and how to go about it. I would like to show as much of it as I can, but we'll have to see how that works out.

rafine Posted June 14, 2017 Author Share #177 Posted June 14, 2017 Thanks so much Denis. I was enjoying having her "free" until I did something really stupid. With the ship in my lap, I reached for something and the next thing I knew, the model was bouncing off the stone floor, destroying part of the stern framing and some some hull planking along the starboard side toward the stern. All forward progress has now stopped until I can redo the damaged areas.
