HM Cutter Lapwing 1816 by iMustBeCrazy - 1:48 - PoB (mostly)

First issue with the drawings, moulds 2 and 4 have the labels swapped, 2 should be 4 and 4 should be 2.

I do know, that I don't know, a whole lot more, than I do know.

Some progress, in a forwards direction :cheers:

 

Build board built, 'deck beams' bent, everything glued up to and inc the 'deck beams'.

Wale being test fitted (again), waterway being worked out (they're next I think).

After the waterways it'll have to be the counter timbers, that will be fun.

Looking really good Craig! The hull looks nice and fair.

Thanks Tony. Biggest worry at the moment (apart from everything else) is the MDF bulwarks, I have to fair one side unsupported so that I can plank or line them so they are supported to fair the other 🤷‍♂️

A tiny update representing a lot of head bashing.

 

The inner pair of counter timbers:

I had to remove 'deck beam' 18 to get them in, all six will be attached to it before being installed as an assembly.

 

I thought I had the outer counter timbers worked out (several times) but I think I'll have to give up and do them in multiple pieces like Chuck did Cheerful.

Next two counter timbers done. Also some planking, a wale, the counter and stern roughly mocked up. I think the counter is going to need a slight curve on the sides.
