captainbob Posted June 18, 2013 #1 Posted June 18, 2013 I see on the Delftship sight that you can design ship hulls, but I see nothing about using the program to develop frames, keels or other parts as 2D drawings. Is it possible with delftship or should I look for a different program? Bob pollex 1 Quote Every build is a learning experience.

jerry_bee Posted June 22, 2013 #4 Posted June 22, 2013 Bob, Delftship is a good (because it's free and good ) tool for modelling 3D hull. With some effort you can obtain any shape of a ship (and more), develope it to frames and other elements - but you will need any other vector graphics programme for comfortable work. It could be any CAD or Corel Draw, for example. As I have promised to Anja, I will show a short tutorial for preparing such drawings. Anja 1 Quote

berniew Posted June 24, 2013 #6 Posted June 24, 2013 Hi Bob, I used Delftship to model the hull of my James Caird build. It did a great job and I used it to produce drawings of bulkheads which I cut out in ply for a mould. I also used it to produce the keel. Very useful. cheers, Bernie Quote
