Fischkutter by Bryan Woods - Laser Creation World - 1:35

That all looks reasonable for a fishing boat. There is a hatch for the fish, and a winch for the nets. Google image searches for the vessel in question should suffice for you to figure out the rigging.

Thanks Ferrus, I may put the hatch on the port side.

I finished the rudder and got it installed.This morning I’m going to get it painted.

 

 

 

I need to pick up some paint to work on the deck area. Maybe that can happen sometime next year:-)

[Bryan Woods]

Quick update. It only took a second to get a few coats on the rudder.

 

 

I’m still waiting to go to town to get some paint to do the deck. I thought maybe I could build a small rail on the bow. It seems useful, but I did no research on it. 

I just got some soldering paste and it made things much better in this department.

 

 

i just had to lay it out and run a small kitchen torch over it for less than a second. I was leary about bending and drilling but courage came pretty quick.

 

 

That one went pretty good. One post broke off when I tried to tweak it. I’ll just hit it with CA later. After that one when on the first time, I’m going to humble myself before I do the port side. I don’t want to get over confident and mess that side up:-)

I thought I’d better get the wheel house done. If I don’t I’ll try to make more stuff to cram inside it, while I procrastinate on the rest of the build.

 

 

 

 

Here’s my winch,  built by my imagination.

 

 

 

Next I’ve got to decide what the mast rigging is going to look like. I’m thinking one boom off to the starboard side. I also need to build a hatch somewhere.

Love the draped raincoat and dangling radio mic in the wheelhouse! Great model. 👍

This week I’ve work on the brass and copper work for the mast and rigging. 
I made 9 of these.

 

 

I’ve got all but three on. Waiting to decide on the stern rigging.

 

 

Then the turnbuckles.

 

 

 

 

It doesn’t do any good for me to paints these while I’m trying to figure all this out. 
 

I think I’ll use these on the net construction.

 

 

Here’s my mock up for the boom rigging.

 

 

And Here what I’ve got going on the mast and boom so far.
