KORTES Posted May 25, 2022 Author #63 Posted May 25, 2022 I made two options for windows rats - cameras on the aft shells. I haven't yet decided what color I will choose for them. mtaylor, cotrecerf, Waitoa and 16 others 19
KORTES Posted May 31, 2022 Author #64 Posted May 31, 2022 Greetings, dear colleagues. I have made anchor closures. The absence of a lathe makes me look for other manufacturing options. First I made tubes of various sizes. Then I soldered a wire belt. I made one version of brass. I tried it looks nice, but not authentic, on the ships they were made out of lead. I'll try another version of iron so it's closer in color.Then I'll choose between the two. Rudolf, scrubbyj427, mtaylor and 10 others 12 1
mtaylor Posted May 31, 2022 #65 Posted May 31, 2022 If you're wanting an iron appearance, wouldn't a blackening agent work?

KORTES Posted June 1, 2022 Author #66 Posted June 1, 2022 Dear Mark I was considering the blackening, but in this case I would get black color. mtaylor and Keith Black 2
KORTES Posted June 1, 2022 Author #67 Posted June 1, 2022 I have made the second version of the anchor fairleads. I think this option will be more suitable. mtaylor, rlb, GrandpaPhil and 8 others 11
KORTES Posted June 10, 2022 Author #68 Posted June 10, 2022 (edited) I have made protective grilles for the skylights. For now I just made a fitting before blackening. Or maybe it's better not to blacken ? Edited June 11, 2022 by KORTES archjofo, GrandpaPhil, dvm27 and 18 others 19 2
Keith Black Posted June 10, 2022 #69 Posted June 10, 2022 29 minutes ago, KORTES said: Or maybe it's better not to blacken ? Nicely done, Kortes. I'd go with raw brass. I don't remember seeing iron skylight grilles.

French Mr Bean Posted June 26, 2022 #71 Posted June 26, 2022 Very nice work. I think brass would be best. (the decision is up to the modeler ) Keith Black and mtaylor 2 Friendly, health and peace for all.
KORTES Posted June 26, 2022 Author #72 Posted June 26, 2022 I have made a galley stove. I had to redo it again, because of the failure on blackening stage. The first option had to be rejected. The technology is simple, all the details are soldered. JpR62, Siegfried, Siggi52 and 23 others 20 6
Keith Black Posted June 27, 2022 #73 Posted June 27, 2022 Kortes, beautiful little stove. I always enjoy seeing your work.

KORTES Posted July 13, 2022 Author #77 Posted July 13, 2022 I have built a cockpit (tambour). I had to redo it several times as usually. Valeriy V, bruce d, CiscoH and 5 others 7 1
KORTES Posted July 13, 2022 Author #78 Posted July 13, 2022 The first option was canceled. Second option. CiscoH, mtaylor, Keith Black and 7 others 9 1
KORTES Posted July 13, 2022 Author #79 Posted July 13, 2022 I tried to cover it with oil. But the oil had highlighted some defects of the wood. I will probably have to replace some elements. CiscoH, ccoyle, Valeriy V and 12 others 12 3
Keith Black Posted July 13, 2022 #80 Posted July 13, 2022 Kortes, I think all the options look great.

KORTES Posted August 10, 2022 Author #82 Posted August 10, 2022 Thank you my dear Friends! I have started to work on the nailing of the hull , the work will take a lot of time and is quite monotonous. Paul Le Wol, scrubbyj427, ccoyle and 11 others 12 2

KORTES Posted September 15, 2022 Author #84 Posted September 15, 2022 I have finally finished the nailing of tge hull.One month of work , but almost nothing to show. Grinding is ahead. FriedClams, Paul Le Wol, Prowler901 and 12 others 10 5

dvm27 Posted September 19, 2022 #87 Posted September 19, 2022 I beg to differ with you Kortes - there is plenty to show. Your meticulous lining out for the treenails and their placement is flawless. I'm guessing you'll need to touch up those wales after sanding the hull.

KORTES Posted September 23, 2022 Author #89 Posted September 23, 2022 The result of the grinding is not yet very presentable. Beauty will appear only after coating with oil. I slightly moistened the hull to show the pins. It looks like this. FriedClams, mtaylor, Prowler901 and 9 others 9 3
Valeriy V Posted September 23, 2022 #90 Posted September 23, 2022 Alexander, this is the result of incredible perseverance! Looking at your work, I understand that only the case made of their metal attracts me for modeling. mtaylor, Keith Black and KORTES 2 1
