New Bedford Whaleboat 1860 by carlo_l - FINISHED - Amati - 1:16 - video log

Hi there!

This is my very first post and I hope I am not breaking some rules.

I would like to share my full log on YouTube on the construction of the Amati New Bedford Whaleboat. 

It does not follow the Amati instruction 100% and I personally took this build to test techniques I have never fully tried 😃

Here all the episodes.

Part 2:

 

 

Part 3:

 

Part 4 (as mention in the video description here the loggerhead is upside down, I noticed that after shooting the videos. Luckily is pretty easy to fix 😃 ) :

Part 5:

Part 6:

 

Part 7:

The first videos showing planking on the bulkheads, then framing, the outer planking are new for me and I see this being a great way to go for very small scale vessels that would have both inside and outside planking.   

 

Do you complete the outer planking before removing the bulkhead structure or after?  I do not see you actually removing the bulkheads in the video.  I like how you use tape on the bulkheads so any excess glue does not stick the inner planking to these parts.

 

Thanks for sharing

Yes, it's a strange technique I admit that. I would do some steps slightly differently but yes, it might be a very nice technique for small scales. 

The bulkheads were removed after completing the outer planking. 

 

Thank you Allan 😃
