B-Ram Posted April 10, 2023 #7 Posted April 10, 2023 Very nice and very fast work on your Endurance. Bill Quote
Tomculb Posted April 10, 2023 #8 Posted April 10, 2023 Nice work on your Endurance. Within the next week or so I'll be posting my progress on hull planking . . . so far, only 5 planks on each side. And as you'll see, my approach is to not worry about uneven planks, cracks, holes and gaps for now, and let filler, sanding and painting hide all the flaws. The precision in your first layer could be stained and otherwise unfinished. Great work!

clearway Posted April 15, 2023 #11 Posted April 15, 2023 Really moving along now- really makes a difference with the more accurate stearing gear. Keith Quote
François de Saint Nazaire Posted April 16, 2023 Author #12 Posted April 16, 2023 Thank you but I think that the drum is too big and I used rigging blocks (wood) from the box also too big. Brass pulley is a better choice but at the end the cost increase ! Have a nice day Quote François ________________ Completed : - Endurance (log - Gallery)(OcCre), Granado 1756 - HM Bomb vessel - JoTiKa/Caldercraft - 1:64
clearway Posted April 16, 2023 #13 Posted April 16, 2023 I am debating at the moment if i should either buy the metal blocks for the steering chains, or attempt to scratchbuild them- as to the wooden drum - still looks better than what occre instructs. Keith Quote
François de Saint Nazaire Posted April 16, 2023 Author #14 Posted April 16, 2023 Keith, Brass block is more realistic and may it is possible to get at the good scale.(https://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/acatalog/CAP-Rigging-Blocks.html). You will need also chain in black For your information, just before the endurance came in the weddell sea the steering gear was visible ( not protected).
