Greetings dear Rudolf I have learned this from an excellent Maitre Dmitriy Shevelev. In order to highlight the joints, I used, just like Dimitriy, a dull needle, and afterwards, on advise of my friend with much experience in this field, i worked on the joints using a small triangular broach file. But there's one nuance. Before putting the covering I took away a small bevel from the edges of the upper part of each plank. The most important is not to let the glue get on the end face of the plank during the plating .

KORTES Posted April 12, 2022 Author Share #45 Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) У меня был перерыв в строительстве по разным причинам. я жду вдохновение, чтобы сделать корпус и палубу гвоздями. А пока я решил поработать над элементами палубы. Пока я сделал только деревянные элементы. Металлические детали пока не делал, сделаю отдельно, потом доделаю, до установки на место.
