Rao A.L.G. Posted April 7, 2015 #152 Posted April 7, 2015 Hi, Lee, I have been following your work of art - words fail me. yet it is something great, amazingly detailed. Regards, Rao Jaekon Lee and AntonyUK 2 Quote
Jaekon Lee Posted April 16, 2015 Author #153 Posted April 16, 2015 Upper deck beam structure Though it was tedious, with installing the last deck beam, called as deck transom, upper deck beam structure was finished. It is hardly seen but captain's room and bread room bulkhead was fitted below the deck beam structure. ^^* Next work will be stern timber structure and port side deck planking.

Jaekon Lee Posted April 27, 2015 Author #158 Posted April 27, 2015 Stern transom and timber structure Due to the complex shape of stern structure and lack of information, many trials were needed to make this part. Though it is not clear with the drawing, side counter timber was formed as double layered with recess to receive the outer top side planking boards. Outer side counter timber was made by ebony to match the color of wale. Curved shape of transoms and tafferal were formed by steam bending method.
