Wintergreen Posted March 1 Author #368 Posted March 1 Soo, this was a funny little piece to piece together, piece by piece, so to say. All dovetails and pins handcut with jewellers saw and filed to fit. It is the forward hatch and stairway just aft of the main mast. I decided to give it a wash of staining to dampen the quite white appearance of it. In order to match I sanded the main hatch coaming also and applied a wash to it too. When dry I will give it a quick touch up with 320 grit paper and apply a couple of layers of laquer. The bottom edge is sanded to the same rise as the deck beams so I used the top edge as index when mating all the corners. The two small blocks in the upper right corner (one with an arrow) was used to get the right size of the openings, and also keep things fair and square. Here it is still moist after the staining hence the quite dark colour. It is not glued in place yet either. The real deal was through bolted from top down through the deck beams. I will not bother with that. I know my limitations (I think). 😉 Cheers guys! Keith Black, Blue Ensign, Speedy and 13 others 11 5 Quote Happy modelling!

Wintergreen Posted November 9 Author #370 Posted November 9 Just to be clear - I have not abandoned the build. It has just been summer followed by a crazy autumn with no spare time or time to spare. The shop is slowly being organized back into being fit for model building and not window frame renovations. It will take some time still, but have faith, I will be back on the Atlantica build before long. Cheers! Keith Black, Mark Pearse, JacquesCousteau and 6 others 9 Quote Happy modelling!

Wintergreen Posted 17 minutes ago Author #377 Posted 17 minutes ago So, just another quick update... Shipwright season has officially started in the Wintergreen residence. Finally! Almost to the day, nine months since my last actual progress report... A lot of other duties had higher priorities. It's been a crazy fall around here. I have also treated myself with the Proxxon disc sander and a new shopwac that doesn't sound like a 747 taking off (it's a Bosch 20 liter something, with a 220 outlet on it, so single switch operation now with sander attached). Oh! And there is a new rule in the shop as well... Put. The. Tools. Back. Where. They. Belong. Period. (NOT just drop them where you last used them, halfwit, because that place, no matter how obvious, is cleared from your memory as soon as you turn your back to it.) Cheers!
