Isaiah Posted May 18 Author Share #31 Posted May 18 Log #6: first planks The first three planks on each side have been placed. I’m trying to slowly get the bow ends to curve upwards to achieve a more natural bend, then I can start reducing the edge bending and tapering. I used Chucks edge bending method using the iron, works perfectly. mugje, Ryland Craze, Thukydides and 7 others 10 Quote Current build: HM Cutter Sherbourne 1763 by Isaiah - Vanguard models - 1:64 Completed Builds: Perseverance -1807 - by Isaiah - 1:48 - Colonial Brig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitan Posted May 19 Share #32 Posted May 19 That looks like good progress. I'm intrigued by your edge bending tool, haven't seen one of those before.

It’s just an angle bracket cut in half with a slightly curved side, just need something the same thickness as the planks. If that’s what you’re talking about.

chris watton Posted May 19 Share #35 Posted May 19 In all honesty, you do not need edge bending tools - the first planking is only 1mm thick, you can wet it and induce the curves you want using your finger and thumb mgatrost, Ryland Craze, Lee Spender and 3 others 6 Quote Vanguard Models on Facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
