Remcohe Posted March 3, 2014 Author #512 Posted March 3, 2014 Thanks for all the kind comments Elia, its the effect of a little water on 120 gr paper Mark, no need to keep a book of photo's we have MSW Druxey, I thought the tally's were to big to, but TFFM describes them 3" 0' and I blindly followed this. So new ones are made(point taken) Michael, it's not a loose thread but a cringle (really!) Unfortunately the sails and tally's were already glued in place. Getting the tall's off did damage the sails a little Top to bottom, the original I used yesterday in 3pt font, then 1,5pt font and 1pt font, I'll use the smalles although the text is almost not readable, but who cares Remco hexnut, SailorGreg, cabrapente and 17 others 20 Quote Treat each part as if it is a model on its own, you will finish more models in a day than others do in a lifetime.

michael mott Posted March 3, 2014 #513 Posted March 3, 2014 Unfortunately the sails and tally's were already glued in place. Getting the tall's off did damage the sails a little Remco it is difficult to tell that there is any damage. The new tally tags are amazingly small, I printed something in 1pt script with my ink jet, just so that i could understand the scale a little better that you are working with. It was difficult to tell they were letters, did you use a laser type printer to get the definition?

Mirabell61 Posted March 6, 2014 #516 Posted March 6, 2014 Greg, correct the blade has the same width as the index in strip. I made a second one for paralel cuts to make the beds for the sails. At first I tried to glue the battens with temporary spacers, but it wasn't as evenly spaced as I had hoped. cutting mortices for the battens made assembly a lot easier. IMG_0057.jpeg For the sails I first got a piece of silk used for model airplanes. Although the fabric is great I could not fold them neatly even with an iron I could not get something I liked. Pretty expensive experiment actually, now I have a very big silk handkerchief with a hole in it...... So thick tinted paper was used. The writing on the tally's are home made decals. IMG_0058.jpeg I'm not sure if I will build the other walls of the sail room or leave it open like this, I actually like it the way it is now having a better view to the storage racks.

Remcohe Posted March 16, 2014 Author #522 Posted March 16, 2014 Thanks all for the kind comments. did you use a laser type printer to get the definition? I did, at 1200 dpi it managed to keep the font readable. A couple of years back this wouldn't be possible on a home printer. So back to the more mundane cabin building. The doors have louvered openings, the rest is pretty straight forward but involved a lot of testfitting. alle the bulkheads are assembled off the model as this was easier to build. It's getting pretty crowded on the deck and there is more to come, a pantry, the bitt's and pump's Remco Jeronimo, WackoWolf, realworkingsailor and 27 others 30 Quote Treat each part as if it is a model on its own, you will finish more models in a day than others do in a lifetime.
