rony Posted August 19, 2017 Author #62 Posted August 19, 2017 Do you think the wooden poles I made are too dark?
src Posted August 19, 2017 #63 Posted August 19, 2017 Too light, too dark is very subjective. I think I would want to see it onthe ship first and then make a decision if it was me. Sam Current Build Constructo Enterprise
rony Posted August 22, 2017 Author #65 Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) I have uploaded pictures of the continuation of construction, unfortunately today I had a malfunction that I caught the front mast with a drill and the bar broke at the beginning of the rod, I stuck the broken part including drilling holes and inserting a nail in the two parts, you can see it in the picture I put, Edited August 22, 2017 by rony DocBlake, Seventynet, coxswain and 3 others 6

DocBlake Posted August 22, 2017 #67 Posted August 22, 2017 Very nice work on this pretty little boat. The wood finish is excellent. One caution: when building "Swift", another AL kit, I noticed that the channels were narrow, and when the deadeyes were rigged, the lanyards rubbed against the rail! A big No-No! I had to widen the channels, so the deadeyes were moved further outboard, and when rigged to the shrouds, the lanyards between the deadeyes no longer rubbed on the rail. This is a design flaw in "Swift", but might be present in other AL "small" ships that have little or no tumblehome at the bulkheads. rony 1 Dave Click on images in posts to view them in full resolution!

rony Posted August 22, 2017 Author #68 Posted August 22, 2017 You're right to be careful with the wires on the sides of the ship, I checked it and so I kept the holes farther towards the outside. Thank you very much for the encouraging comments, it's a shame that the front bar broke and I was forced to fix it as I attached a close-up picture.
rony Posted August 25, 2017 Author #69 Posted August 25, 2017 good eveningNeed your help with a problemI accidentally mispainted the rod and stuck it with carpenter glue, you can see the paste in the picture I attached, do you have a patent to strengthen the rod?I also filmed the space of wires to see if it was far enough from the railing.What do you think please? rony Robin Lous 1

src Posted August 26, 2017 #71 Posted August 26, 2017 (edited) RONY i don't under your question about mispainting the rod, are you asking how to dissolve carpenter glue? Or how to strip paint?

rony Posted September 17, 2017 Author #79 Posted September 17, 2017 Good evening friendsI uploaded pictures of the model after coating with Danish oil I still had not caught the terns .
aviaamator Posted September 17, 2017 #80 Posted September 17, 2017 Roni ! I'm sorry, but the deck on the ship always has a curvature in cross section. I too have built this model, but in a different perspective and color. I'm sure I have this right... You certainly have a right to your opinion! Sorry if I was rude or harsh...
rony Posted September 17, 2017 Author #81 Posted September 17, 2017 It's all right, you're right.Your work is real and beautiful.But fixing it now is late.Thanks
