Don Quixote Posted April 12, 2022 #1 Posted April 12, 2022 And we're off! Tried the Dory but simply could not get the stern straight. Hands shake too much I guess. I did a fairly good job on the Niagara until I got to the rigging, So I'm comfortable trying this. ccoyle 1 Quote Norwegian Sailing Pram 1:12 Scale. 2nd boat in the learning series.

Don Quixote Posted April 13, 2022 Author #2 Posted April 13, 2022 I've seen a couple logs where there are a couple missing brass nails. I have all 16. Plus a spoon.

Don Quixote Posted April 19, 2022 Author #3 Posted April 19, 2022 (edited) I bought some rubber cement from Amazon, but couldn't get the cap off. I had some Velcro so I tried that but it was not stiff enough. Knee was not square. Got some more cement and did a much better job.

Don Quixote Posted April 19, 2022 Author #4 Posted April 19, 2022 (edited) The instructions say to make 2 cuts at an angle on the lower stern transom. They don't say how deep nor what the purpose is. I also don't see it on any other builds I've seen. Edited April 19, 2022 by Don Quixote Ryland Craze 1 Quote Norwegian Sailing Pram 1:12 Scale. 2nd boat in the learning series.

druxey Posted April 19, 2022 #5 Posted April 19, 2022 The lower surfaces of the transom need to be parallel to the bottom of the boat. They have to join in a smooth seam. You angle off each side of the transom as in the lower photo. Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
Don Quixote Posted April 19, 2022 Author #6 Posted April 19, 2022 Yeah, but what's up with the upper picture where they are using the razor saw? Thanks for looking in, and the advice.

Don Quixote Posted May 11, 2022 Author #7 Posted May 11, 2022 This is not abandoned. It's on hold until I get my tourette's under control.

druxey Posted May 11, 2022 #8 Posted May 11, 2022 Sorry to read of your physical issues. Hopefully they can be reduced so that you can enjoy building again. bobandlucy 1 Quote Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
