bruce d Posted February 28, 2022 Share #393 Posted February 28, 2022 This just gets better and better. The swivels look perfect. Perhaps I missed it but can I ask, did you make the swivel gun barrels? mtaylor and No Idea 2 Quote 🌻 STAY SAFE A model shipwright and an amateur historian are heads & tails of the same coin current builds: HMS Berwick 1775, 1/192 scratchbuild; a Slade 74 in the Navy Board style Mediator sloop, 1/48 - an 18th century transport scratchbuild French longboat - CAF - 1/48, on hold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsalv Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share #401 Posted April 9, 2022 Now it's time to finish the head, so I had to start producing a long-delayed component - a figurehead. Making a figure using a CNC milling machine was quite a challenge for me. You can now judge the result.

scrubbyj427 Posted April 9, 2022 Share #402 Posted April 9, 2022 Your figurehead looks excellent Marsalv! In your cnc did you have to carve one side at a time and flip the figure over each time or did the machine cut at all angles in one pass?

No Idea Posted April 9, 2022 Share #403 Posted April 9, 2022 Your CNC skills are just incredible - WOW that figurehead looks fantastic and fits in so well with the rest of the ship. mtaylor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsalv Posted April 16, 2022 Author Share #404 Posted April 16, 2022 To scrubbyj427: It is not possible to make all cuts in one pass. At first I tried to mill the figure gradually from all 4 sides - without much success. In the end, I decided to mill on only two sides and finish the details on the back and front by hand. I am satisfied with the result. Lower and upper cheeks. JpR62, chris watton, WalrusGuy and 28 others 26 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
