Piet Posted April 4, 2013 #181 Posted April 4, 2013 My bet is on a hypodermic needle chisel. All you need is a steady hand and a good set of eyes. This seems more difficult then a scraper, at least you have a guide edge with that. Very nice work Remco! Cheers, Quote Piet, The Flying Dutchman.

Remcohe Posted April 4, 2013 Author #184 Posted April 4, 2013 Thanks guys, I really appreciate the comments So how did I do it, the how-to was indeed like Jan noticed in the first picture. The divider was used to scrape a thin line evenly spaced from the bottom of the gallow. Multiple passes with very light pressure were needed to cut through the grain. In the middle the cut was done free hand. Then I used a slightly blunted threading needle to make the molding, again multiple passes and the wood shaped nicely. And yes Piet I do have some miniature 0.4 mm chisels made from hypodermic needles and thin steel but I use them elsewhere Remco Jeronimo, Elmer Cornish, Blue Ensign and 7 others 10 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.

Remcohe Posted May 16, 2013 Author #193 Posted May 16, 2013 I finally found my way back to my workshop. Real life, other projects and a bit of modelers block got in the way. I finished beam 11 with the hanging knees and now I moved to the bow section to built the fore platform. The footwalling already has it's final finish so the bare wood looks light in contrast. Two more platforms coming up...

Remcohe Posted May 25, 2013 Author #201 Posted May 25, 2013 Thanks Scott, John. I had to rebuild the forward small platform as the deck pillar didn't line up with the deckbeam above. More deck pillars and stancions added, a small portion of the bulkhead is made too. The upper breast hook was made using card templates and trimmed further until a snug fit was obtained.

druxey Posted May 25, 2013 #202 Posted May 25, 2013 It's tricky, trying to keep in mind everything above the deck you are working on aligning properly later.

I'm glad that you caught that earlier rather than too late! Trying is the right word, and then comes hoping you've got it all in the right spot. Glad this was an easy fix, further down it would have been impossible... Ed I now use a cup burr that works even better Here the third platform is partially complete and the riding bitt's are test fitted, hard to see but they taper quite dramatically towards the bottom of the hull. This is one of those jobs where I would like to have 6 extra hands ;-) Remco Wishmaster, druxey, Mcdood and 4 others 7 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.

Remcohe Posted May 27, 2013 Author #208 Posted May 27, 2013 Thanks guys, but who said I only have 2?

EdT Posted May 28, 2013 #209 Posted May 28, 2013 Remco, That is a very interesting cup bur. Does it have a name. The problem I have with the ones I use is that they quickly plug up with copper and stop cutting. Yors looks interesting. I will look for it.
