Now we're all curious as to how far along you are on this model.

pietkm Posted January 18, 2022 Share #122 Posted January 18, 2022 Hi Rod, Both of you are ahead of me in the build. Glad to see my remark on your mishap was still on time for a relatively easy repair, which you executed perfectly. No build log, because no camera here.

You're right the hangar walls will be very close to the circular railings if you don't reduce the width of your hangars. Also the hangar walls will not be flush with the forward superstructure. Some of the plastic parts to be placed later on the hangar walls will not even fit anymore. (In those Russian Youtube videos of the Bismarck build they kept the hangars as is and just reduced the thickness of some of the plastic parts, so they fit, not nice also). Amati took what was the easiest way out to them; reduce the hangar width and adjust the size of the hangar door PE. Interesting to see what solution you come up with. Piet Hi Piet, Thanks for the update. I think, (Maybe🙂), that things will work out o.k I intend to get a start tomorrow and will get some photos along the way. With other components, (Plastic, etc), I have no idea which "Issues" they are in at present. The "Issues" that I have out and immediately at hand, are the two which deal with the majority of the major PE for these structures. I agree that it will be interesting to see what works.... 🙂 Cheers....HOF. mtaylor, popeye the sailor and Canute 3 Quote Completed Builds: A/L Bluenose II A/L Mare Nostrum Sergal/Mantua Cutty Sark A/L Pen Duick A/L Fulgaro Amati/Partworks 1/200 Bismarck A/L Sanson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hof00 Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share #125 Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Hi All, I thought I'd ask the Forum regarding the Hanger conundrum.... I put he fronts together and taped in place for two reasons: See how much material has to be removed Mark on the reverse where the removal need to occur Should I: Remove the material Cut a slot in the Funnel to accommodate I took heaps of photos, so, if any of you have time, please have a look and give me some feedback. (Remove overhanging PE or hide it.... 🙂) I'm quite tempted to utilize the Stationary Disk Sander and support the PE on a piece of scrap wood. (Could be too harsh perhaps?) Cheers....HOF.

I was thinking about the door detail and how I would replicate after trimming.... It also makes things far simpler.... Just thinking about it, I could utilize the inboard edge of the door as a template for trimming the front PE. I also made a Template for the front, I realized the bottom angle would also need trimming by the same amount. I'll de-bond the doors tomorrow and have a play with it. Keep the ideas coming!! 🙂 Cheers and Regards, Harry.

hof00 Posted January 19, 2022 Author Share #128 Posted January 19, 2022 Hi All, Piet's suggestion, (Above), worked out nicely!! The Hangers are now the correct size and so is the front PE. The best thing is that it all fits!! 🙂 The Hanger doors remain pretty much centered also. A big thanks to Piet for his suggestion!! I can now move on with the rest of the Hanger components.

hof00 Posted January 23, 2022 Author Share #133 Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Hi All, Small update: After three or so days I have completed the Port and Starboard Hangers. (PE anyway. (I identified the "Issue" that contain the Plastic elements for these and other sub-assemblies. I don't think I'll put these on just yet...)) I'm unsure what I'll go with next, I was leaning towards completing the Hull. Also tempted with cladding the forward Superstructure. Maybe Boats/Launches. (These remind me of things that used to be in Cereal packets that myself and my sister used to fight over.... 🙂 Cheers....HOF.

In my humble opinion you should complete the hull. While you are waiting for paint to dry you can spray some gray on the superstructure and hand paint the dark gray decks. It looks like the hull is nearly done, so in a week's work you will have a half-completed model rather than a stack of half-completed parts. Just look at how good your mast looks after a coat of paint - it's a mast-erpiece.

hof00 Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share #137 Posted January 26, 2022 Thanks Rod, I tend to agree with you.... 🙂 My intention is to begin with the Stern "Grab-Rails" today.

hof00 Posted January 29, 2022 Author Share #138 Posted January 29, 2022 Hi All, Still working on the "Beastie.... 🙂) Small update: Sanded down slightly "Proud" Portholes, (Emery Paper), and started on the Stern Grab Rails. I was not happy at all with my efforts so removed them. I particularly do not like the paper templates provided. Filled the holes that I had created and primed the sanded areas and manufactured another bunch of rails with longer "Legs'" The Plan going forward is to make a drilling template for these items with hopefully more success. (I'll be able to see the holes on the primed surface and I located a 0.5mm drill for the rail "Legs." I turned a couple of pedestals and sorted ot some suitable wood for a plinth. (Both "Rimu" pronounced Reemoo. 🙂 (Gives me some "Thinking" time for developing a suitable template. If anyone has ideas, I'm all Ears!!) Sorry, that's all for the mo.

hof00 Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share #139 Posted February 3, 2022 Hi All, Small update: Developed a Jig for Stern Grab Rails. Worked out o.k. The Rails are not perfect and some need a little "Tweak" here and there but I am pleased this is done. (In the photos, it looks like they protrude a bit too much but I think they are o.k. and will look better after a bit of a prime. I can now concentrate on getting ready for a bit of paint and mount the beastie on it's pedestals. Cheers....HOF. Photos: .

hof00 Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share #140 Posted February 3, 2022 (edited) Hmmm.... Looking at the photos, I may have to "Push" the Rails in just a tad.... 🙂 (Shouldn't bee too difficult, bit of de-bonder and a thinner spacer.) They are 2.0mm out from the Hull currently.

mikegr Posted February 3, 2022 Share #141 Posted February 3, 2022 Close photos suggest some alignment but once painted they may look ok.

I was not happy, the more I thought about it.... I looked at Rod's, (rvchima), Bismarck build also for confirmation of my thoughts. (Thanks Rod 🙂) So, I have "Pushed" the Rails in on the Starboard side using a 1.0mm strip of Walnut as a spacer between Rail and Hull, it looks much better and much more in scale.... I think that a "Prime" will hide any other misdemeanors. Amazing what a millimeter will do!! 🙂 Live and learn I guess. Anyway, something to start my day off tomorrow!!

I guess a final check would be by checking the hulk from the stern to make sure they put in the correct depth. So basically we are talking for a 3 dimension check. Definitely bit more complicated task that bend and glue as it seems initially. Not to mention that after some sets (or models) you will be able to put them by hand without the need of any tools.

Yes, I did make the Cutty Cabinet. Made from NZ Rimu, very difficult to source apart from recycled timber.) The cabinet was the easy part of the build!! 🙂 So, progress is a little slow on the Bismarck at the mo, I'm still tossing up the idea of making a Brass drilling template for the Stern Grab Rails or just leave them and move on. (After reducing the gap between Hull and Rail, they are much more acceptable and look even more so with a dose of primer, I'll "Ruminate" on this for a little longer.... 🙂) Cheers and Regards, Harry.

hof00 Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share #150 Posted February 9, 2022 (edited) Hi All, Very small update: Had a think about the Stern Grab Rails and decided to leave well alone, They are not perfect and I figured that if I was to remove them and re-drill, I could end up with a big mess!! I think that they are acceptable as they stand with the gap between Rail and Hull 1.0mm (Once the Hull is Painted, (Soon), I am thinking that any error/s will "Blend" into the overall model. The only ones to know will be myself and anyone reading this build log....) Attached my attempt at turned Pedestals and Plinth, but will remove these for final Hull finishing/painting. (It always seems a bit "Criminal" to drill holes into a perfectly good Hull.... 🙂) So, the plan for tomorrow is to perform the final prep of the Hull, attach Propeller Shafts/Hubs followed by a final prime, that should keep me occupied enough for a few hours anyway. (I'll get the Airbrush dusted off and serviceable also.) Cheers....HOF.
