I realize the kit I'm working with is a simplified version which makes my work lighter, but I realize that a number of details are missing. For example, this is ship without anchors. If I was to add anchor (or two), I'm not sure where to turn to figure that out. It isn't a do or die question at this point; I see that other kits have more detail and I fine with what is given in this kit. I assume I'll make horrible cringe-worthy mistakes as I learn the craft of model shipbuilding and I rather do that with simpler kits than "waste" a big expensive kit (although I'm sure I'll get to that as well ).

I bought in the mid-Nineties, and was afraid I would screw it up, so I did the obvious thing: I never started. While I didn't screw anything up, there was, um, no progress either. In my old age, I care less about screwing up stuff - and this website is such a boon to even the mildly curious!!

Chuck Posted March 19, 2020 Share #67 Posted March 19, 2020 To answer your question about how these masts and bowsprits are put together. All that info is out there, but these early kits simplified the details way too much. In fact, the bowsprit on your model is missing a few things that would make the angles and rigging process go a lot smoother. Too much to mention in a post like this. But when you come by the shop next time I have many books on the topic and can show you. You can take borrow them and take a look. For example....if you add this small piece the jiboom would line up better with the bowsprit. so the distance between both were the same at the arse end of the jibboom. Do you see that little piece between the two. Your kit probably doesnt even show it on the plans and I am certain it wasnt mentioned in those 4 pages of instructions. But you are doing a lovely job with it. Its just a very outdated kit which was considered a good one at that time.

EricWilliamMarshall Posted March 19, 2020 Author Share #69 Posted March 19, 2020 4 minutes ago, VTHokiEE said: The paint job is real nice My 'secrets' are few: 1) I use 'fresh' blue painters' tape - fresh meaning the adhesive is newish and not extra-tacky/sticky. 2) I press the edge down with the end of my paint brush (non-brush side) or the flat of my fingernail. With some tape, you will see a slight change in color or transparency as the tape makes greater contact with the ship. 3) Sometimes I cut thinner strips, so greater curves can be made. Otherwise the tape will buckle/bend/etc. in weird ways and lose contact with the surface. 4) I use slightly thicker paint than usual when painting the area next to the tape. 5) I brush from tape to wood. - these last two help minimize bleeding and leaking under the tape. 6) If spraying, I spray from the same side as the tape - also to minimize bleeding 7) I don't like the Testor's tape and the Tamiya is close to painters' tape so not worth the price difference for me. (To be honest, I have the Tamiya tape and keep 'saving it for something important' ) 8) I use cheap crappy 'craft' paint - I don't think it matters but it might, so I'm mentioning it. 9) While don't usually do it, I love the suggestion of using some clear finish to 'seal' the tape and surface of the ship to reduce bleeding. 10) Nothing says you can't paint over a small mess, or try again or scrap and try again!

EricWilliamMarshall Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share #72 Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) ,The great COVID event has left me with very little time (so far), but I got a little time in at the bench. The supplied mast tops had holes too large to use. And I hadn’t checked them when I made the parts for the masts and prepped the supplied parts. Only when brought them all together did I notice. A recurring theme. So so then went to make my own. I took a several stabs until I figured out how to drill the wood without splitting it.

EricWilliamMarshall Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share #73 Posted March 24, 2020 I did a little work on the masts and attempted to drill the hole in ship that will hold the masts.

EricWilliamMarshall Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share #78 Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) I should have mentioned - the masts are just a dry fit. I’ll have to figure out a way to tweak the angles. I think can repair the decking. And now that folks mention it, perhaps I can ‘enhance’ that area of the ship. There is little bit of ‘furniture’ the goes around the mast for ropes and pins not shown. I’ll take a photo of that when next at the bench. VTHokiEE - I see what you mean (and nice work, I’m going to steal your scupper jig idea for my next builds!) Osmosis - beautiful work; the stand is a very nice addition to your model! As for my books, I didn’t find anything to draw on and, after a while, I let it be. The closest thing I found are either pilot boats or cutters from the early 1800s or schooners from later in the mid-1800s. Neither being a clear match to steal from. The kit is meant to be simple and I’m not clever enough (yet) to work too much around that. (I did add a planked deck, rails, and bulwarks though.) I clearly see some MSW builders can pull info from Steel or James Lee; I’m not there yet. Thanks for the help!

I started with pin vise with a 1/16” bit (1.6 mm) and then a larger and a larger. Then next to last I used a hand-cranked drill. And the last pass, with a cordless drill since the hand-cranked drill was pulling off target at slow speeds. The holes were undersized compared to the masts. And, yes, spent more time on this then should have, especially given the results. thibaultron 1 Quote Current adventures: USS Perry of 1843, model kit by Bluejacket - Scale 1:96 Lost at Sea: Dapper Tom - model kit by Model Shipways Previous adventures: an English Pinnace, model kit by Model Shipways, Opium Smuggler Schooner Yacht 1805, model kit by Authentic Holland Models Chesapeake Bay Flattie, model kit by Midwest, USS Constitution, model kit by Revell Albatros 1912, card model kit by HMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricWilliamMarshall Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share #84 Posted March 28, 2020 As suggested by VTHokiEE and Art, there is a variety of options regarding the mast to deck intersection! I found round and square “boots” occurring in the few plans I could find. So, I going with the easier to cut square boot, which still has a chance to be historically correct (although I left that district a while ago). You may notice the square “boots” raised out of the way on the masts in the photos. I also have attempted to attach the masts (and shimmed like demon), hoping to correct my issues the drilled holes I mentioned earlier. coxswain, ccoyle, GrandpaPhil and 4 others 7 Quote Current adventures: USS Perry of 1843, model kit by Bluejacket - Scale 1:96 Lost at Sea: Dapper Tom - model kit by Model Shipways Previous adventures: an English Pinnace, model kit by Model Shipways, Opium Smuggler Schooner Yacht 1805, model kit by Authentic Holland Models Chesapeake Bay Flattie, model kit by Midwest, USS Constitution, model kit by Revell Albatros 1912, card model kit by HMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
