reklein Posted July 31, 2017 Author #61 Posted July 31, 2017 I used Titebond on the deck I needed the woking time. That's the final finish you see. Its one coat of minwax golden oak. I like the slightly weathered,antiqued look. Thanks Rich. Bill, in Idaho Completed Mamoli Halifax and Billings Viking ship in 2015 Next Model Shipways Syren
reklein Posted August 2, 2017 Author #62 Posted August 2, 2017 Coppering has begun. Hers my set up for embossing the copper. I just happened to have this handy tool on hand. Its a sensipress from NWSL. One could also use a small drill press. I feel it gives me better control than a hammer.

reklein Posted January 7, 2018 Author #63 Posted January 7, 2018 Well I completed the coppering and went on to some other stuff like the gunport lids, stern decoration and then got a start on the figurehead and head rails. I'm having a lot of fun. GrandpaPhil, Altduck, Ryland Craze and 9 others 12 Bill, in Idaho Completed Mamoli Halifax and Billings Viking ship in 2015 Next Model Shipways Syren
