Jaeon Posted March 7, 2018 Share #1 Posted March 7, 2018 (edited) I am at the point to create the main boom jaws but cannot find in the plans their size. The parts list lists plans, sheet 1,2 and 3. I only have two sheets of plans so perhaps that info is on my third missing sheet. Can anyone point me to where I can find the info I need. I have the pdf practicum but that data is not in them that I can find. Thanks Edited March 7, 2018 by Jaeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BETAQDAVE Posted March 7, 2018 Share #2 Posted March 7, 2018 For my Phantom build, I just followed my copy of the measured drawings by J.B. Jenson of the Bluenose II. The drawings are for a ship larger than the Phantom, so I just used it for the proper proportions. See the pics below. mtaylor 1 Quote Dave “You’ve just got to know your limitations” Dirty Harry Current Builds: Modified MS 1/8” scale Phantom, and modified plastic/wood hybrid of Aurora 1:87 scale whaling bark Wanderer. Past Builds: (Done & sold) 1/8” scale A.J. Fisher 2 mast schooner Challenge, 1/6” scale scratch built whaler Wanderer w/ plans & fittings from A.J. Fisher, and numerous plastic kits including 1/8” scale Revell U.S.S. Constitution (twice), Cutty Sark, and Mayflower. (Done & in dry dock) Modified 1/8” scale Revell U.S.S. Constitution w/ wooden deck and masting [too close encounter w/conc. floor in move] Hope to get to builds: MS 3/16” scale Pride of Baltimore II, MS 1/2” scale pinky schooner Glad Tidings, a scratch build 3/16” scale Phantom, and a scratch build 3/16" scale Denis Sullivan.

Jaeon Posted March 12, 2018 Author Share #4 Posted March 12, 2018 Got it done and it fits. It took a couple false starts. Sometimes it is hard for me to picture what I need to do. After a couple mistakes it came to me. More sanding is needed. mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
