HM Cutter Cheerful 1806 by Chuck - FINISHED - 1:48 scale - kit prototype
This will mark the beginning of my project to build the prototype for the Cutter Cheerful. The plans are completed and I am getting ready to release the plans in a few months. I will be building her out of Boxwood or possibly even Pau marfin. I havent decided. This project is a POB build as you can see from the details in the plans posted below. Its not a very cumbersome project with just a cutter rig to deal with. She is carvel planked and not Clinker planked. This is one of the reasons
I know I am going a bit in reverse here, but I managed to rig the yards and complete all of the rigging today. I will have more detailed photos as I sort them out but since I havent posted in a while I thought I would show the model as it stands now. All that remain to be done are the anchors and buoys and the entry way stanchions. Plus a little clean up. But I still try to sneak in some model time even though it has been crazy nuts lately.
The yards were made from square stock.
