good evening, everyone

thank you for comments and likes

let me know if you are getting bored with my posts, please

day 43 tween deck box girders frames 54 to 99, upper deck transverse beams port side 17 to 54 painted cargo hold deck and bilge tanks

Kevin’s shipyard paint schedule - machinery spaces green decks

customer requirement – green decks in all cargo holds forward of the engine room and machinery spaces (this is just as well as I painted them wrong)

the transverse beams are attached to the longitudinals but not the box girders

Bored? Nonsense! It’s just as interesting to see your build as it is to see those full frame wooden model thingys that others are building elsewhere around here.
 

Besides, for me, there’s also a strong sense of familiarity, since I’d spent nearly twenty years of my life mucking around in very similar thingys.

 

Keep up the great work!

Not boring here.  Just stop carrying it outside is my advice.  Don't want to see this one broken.

Getting bored??

To me this is one of the most interesting build logs ever! I admire your patience and quality of your work, plus the fact that you take the time to take all these pictures and show them here.

As for familiarity I can confirm what Andy said because I saw a lot of ships in drydock undergoing maintenance or repairs.

Take care!

Uwe

i will continue going down the port side with the occasional bit on the stbd side to keep it from getting out of shape, but any input from anyone about anything you see wrong or suggestions i will be grateful, this is my one chance to make this something a bit different

I agree  with everyone else  -  I think its Amazing what you are building  - you have a gift  to be able to mold something  like this together  with such delicate materials.

good evening everyone

thankyou for comments and like comments

day 48 tween deck transverse beams

a lot of progress made in the last few days

i decided to make a lot the internal decks and deckheads in modules i have found, for me it works very well, and allows me to get all the longitudinals quite straight, also allows painting a lot easier

 

 

 

lots of transverse beams ready for fitting these are for the stbd side midships

tween decks level nearly complete, looks sqiffy due to the fact the decks are just placed on, and not slotted into position

day 49 continuation of tween decks

one or two transverse beams missing, may find them outside if the boi has taken them

i am finding this build to large to get any decent photos, i may have to drag a wide angle lens out

tomorrow i think i will start to frame the stbd side,

 

this is possibly the most enjoyable build i have ever done

Good evening 

thank you for comments and likes

been a few days since my last update, been busy with family, but still managed to do a bit every day

day 54

 

engine room flat and tween deck level now have decks on

IMG_3411.thumb.JPG.112bca2eb4638dca0144b85da320bd65.JPG

front end repainted to the colors i am using

IMG_3412.thumb.JPG.bb58282437e46b927a16071282b977ea.JPG

hand painting the bilges in black, looks awful, and needs doing again

IMG_3415.thumb.JPG.8a34ca50169d5e5170c8bea2c61ad596.JPG

hand painting the box girders and looks worse than the black in the bilges

first of the hidden lighting

IMG_3417.thumb.JPG.c58ed5b0af3afc44ea0bd583e5fb9954.JPG

tween deck 1/2 bulkhead on 54 frame, this will then keep the upper deck frames at the correct level

I must say she looks very delicate at this stage, mate!

 

John

it is actually very firm now, where the transverse beams are attached to the box girders onto the bulkheads, what is surprising is how flimsy the stern frames are that have been put in, no doubt when the other side are in it will make them look better

@Jim Lad

yes it does look delicate, well today i started to resolve that issue

 

good evening everyone

thank you for comments and likes

day 56 front end on, and back off again, stbd side frames going in instead

 

But first of all i made an attempt to join the front end on, after 24 hours of daring not to sneeze i decided, its far to early as there is nothing solid yet to secure it to, other than the keel plates, however with a bit of string along the centre line, it is spot on

IMG_3448.thumb.JPG.fa4b4e085439577881dfdcbd3f3f16aa.JPGIMG_3449.thumb.JPG.a6d8027cf670215d56409c8e50b9c13b.JPGIMG_3450.thumb.JPG.a75cdb19a5e8c8cde7d9be4a92db9257.JPG

right lets get the port side sorted, 157 frames to varnished on both sides, the reverse to be painted grey, cut and folded

IMG_3457.thumb.JPG.674b801267385528b913d57f0b1721b6.JPG

frames going in, my next project for a few days

IMG_3458.thumb.JPG.59804d3d397daebf4475038a7e600acc.JPG

front end is getting in the way, rather than damage anything it has been taken back off

day 58 port side frames going in Midships section

 

bit of a disaster yesterday so quite a few hours wasted, making up the frames for the tween deck and spent ages lining them up, went to fit then on the build when i realised it did not look right at all, i had successfully put them all on the upper deck position, not the tween deck, what a numpty, some were damaged beyond repair, but i had a few spare from a previous build

also made up a set of tween deck pontoon hatch covers, to ensure my corners were square (spot on)
