Foultide Posted February 19, 2018 Author #35 Posted February 19, 2018 On a side note I was given a Artesania Latina kit of the HMB Endeavour which had been started but sadly the builder past away while it was still under construction. It sat for 15 years waiting to be completed. The first planking had been finished but I needed to redo some of it as really needed redoing. I have already built this ship but it will nice to work it along side the Washington as a change of pace. Some of the kit has gone missing so I'll probably be creative with it and build it as I like. Thanks for stopping in. Bye for now, Dan Canute, mtaylor and paulsutcliffe 3 6 Ships in the Gallery.

shipmodel Posted April 2, 2018 #38 Posted April 2, 2018 Hi Dan - Just catching up, and really like how she is coming along. The joinery on the deck beams and ledges is top notch, and the stove presents a very realistic appearance. Well done. I do suggest that you replace your gratings. Their contrasting color makes them a visual focal point, but they are quite out of scale and shape. If you can't make them yourself (and there is a nice how-to Shop Note from Don Spruel in the current Journal), then there are several suppliers who can meet your needs. You may have to shim the surrounding coaming to get a tight fit, but the result should be up to the very high level of craftsmanship of the rest of your work. Best of success.
