harvey1847 Posted April 20, 2013 Share #33 Posted April 20, 2013 WOW!! Is the first time in my life that I see the building of a ship out of cowbones! I have seen them at the museums of course but I´ve never seen a model step by step. Amazing job and very good explanations. Where you get from all the bones? How you treat them to get them so clean to start to cut? Do you boiled them? Best wishes! Daniel. Quote In the shipyard: HMS Triton 1773. POF. 1:48. Daniel On the computer: R.A. Principe de La Paz.

captainscott Posted April 22, 2013 Share #45 Posted April 22, 2013 Your inlay is unblievable!! What skill, would you mind putting more detail on how you accomplished that?

Tarjack Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share #46 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Hello to all I'm sorry, but I can not show the construction of the inlaid.When I did this job, I did not think it would be interesting to others. *shameonme*You have to remember, I've done the work 15 years ago. At a time, there were no or very few forums for ship modellers.And the photographing was expensive.I've done a lot of photos, but still only if a part was finished.Now looking back, it is a pity for it, but unfortunately too late to change.But I will indemnify with more pictures.I promised Edited April 23, 2013 by Tarjack Quote cheers Robert And when the workaholic grabs me, I sit quietly in a corner and wait until the attack is over Into dockyard: HMY Royal Caroline 1749 made from Bone 74 Gun-ship 1781 (engl.)

Anja Posted April 30, 2013 Share #49 Posted April 30, 2013 Hello Robert, I just found your log. What a marvelous ship, you are a true craftsman. It's the first time I see a ship being build made out of bones. Your inlay floors and carvings are absolutely beautiful. I will follow with great interest. Thank you for sharing and take care, Anja Quote Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.

Grizzly660 Posted May 1, 2013 Share #51 Posted May 1, 2013 Olá; One question springs to mind. I'm a butcher and one thing I remember is the penetrating smell of bone when using a saw. How about that? Any smell? Or is it because you've "aged" the bone that there is no smell at all? Greetz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarjack Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share #56 Posted May 2, 2013 At the time when the bone was cut to stock, (1993) i have 1 month stunk like a soup pot. It was indescribable.The only means against was to shower shower and shower again.Nevertheless, the skin on my hands and arms have smelled of old bones. It took weeks up to the smell disappeared Have Fun Quote cheers Robert And when the workaholic grabs me, I sit quietly in a corner and wait until the attack is over Into dockyard: HMY Royal Caroline 1749 made from Bone 74 Gun-ship 1781 (engl.)

Tarjack Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share #57 Posted May 9, 2013 THE BOAT of Caroline Not a film from Petersen ......................it´s built by TarjackThe screenplayThe scene scriptsThe main rolesThe left and the right hand of the D/T ...................................................... arjack Bovine boneSawJigsawetc.etc.pp The Set Regie Now for the movie ............ .................................. ääääähhheehe the building reportUsually here comes the chick with the cold drinks and the great ..................................... Eyes. What have you been thinking again ........................ pigletsDuring the planking of the boat I have taken no pictures. (yesiknowbymyselfitspity) The material has been lost in the editing room. (whobelives) In the first photo you can see how the frames are bent into shape after cooking. For this, the strips can be pinned on the form block for the boat and after drying they stay in shape. They are then glued. The frames are divided into two. The floor timbers are prepared in situ. The preformed ribs could be fit without problems. The installation of the floor boards, Wash-board, thwarts and Remmleisten I did ...... but unfortunately not photographed (yeahyeahallwaysthesamestory) :angry: But now jahaa enough photos that goes well.Install the knee to support the thwarts was a real hassle. The Boat-rudder- blade, of course combed into two parts was a great experience again. The tiller a little challenge. The bracket for the mast looks quite good, is not it. The Stern-sheets and the side covers were also in line. In between sample seats for the crew ...... * lol * Then remove the sloppiness and make new: Customize grating clean. Gunwale back down and re-done, because wrong, this time with oarlocks. Set the Thwartknee to the correct position. The Thole-boards were a real challenge. Tiny, shaped in three directions, with stop bar!Then the fitting and final assembly this time right Gunwale. Now a few settings using "director's cut" of the repairs of fixtures. (Botch eliminate) Again a few parts for the box of memories! The flagpole: The flagpole with 4 hex taper is made from the blank. Then from the 4 hex to 8 hex, and now in the lathe.Looks good does not it? Even turned the mast and mast trunks and leadership of the shell is finished, lacking only the turned wooden knob at the top.TATAAAA there he is. The rudder also still needs the finishing touchesAnd in the end the whole thing, the crown is placed CUUUUUUUUUUUUT The Take Dear Congregation, I hope that you have enjoyed the "film".A continuation of the movie series is in progress So long and have fun tomwilberg, CiscoH, DORIS and 12 others 15 Quote cheers Robert And when the workaholic grabs me, I sit quietly in a corner and wait until the attack is over Into dockyard: HMY Royal Caroline 1749 made from Bone 74 Gun-ship 1781 (engl.)
