Dida Posted March 2, 2013 #1 Posted March 2, 2013 While resting of my first scratch build, I am planing to start another ship of the same type. During the building of the previous ship I learned something about it. This time I will not start with real works until I completely finish the drawings. I started with modeling the hull using DelftSHIP Free. This is, at this moment, the idea how the ship will look like. It will be changes until I choose final version.

captainbob Posted March 2, 2013 #2 Posted March 2, 2013 Nice looking hull, Dida. One of these days I'm going to have to learn how to use DelftSHIP. Bob Every build is a learning experience.

Dida Posted March 2, 2013 Author #3 Posted March 2, 2013 Thank you Bob! This time I will make complete drawing set, until last nail. In my previous build I have several improvisations because I started as soon as I finished hull form. I was very impatient to start.

russ Posted March 2, 2013 #4 Posted March 2, 2013 I use ACAD and I also do all of my drawings before building. I look forward to seeing your progress.

Dida Posted March 2, 2013 Author #5 Posted March 2, 2013 Hi, Russ! What software are you using to model the hull? Kind regards, Hrvoje Finished: Leut by Dida My current build: Leut II My forum dealing with traditional Croatian and Mediterranean shipbuilding: http://drvenibrodovi.forumotion.eu.
russ Posted March 2, 2013 #6 Posted March 2, 2013 If you mean what I am using to draw the plans and templates, then it is ACAD. I am using an older version of it, 2000i. It does everything I need it to do to get from the computer screen and into the workshop.

Dida Posted March 2, 2013 Author #7 Posted March 2, 2013 If you mean what I am using to draw the plans and templates, then it is ACAD. I am using an older version of it, 2000i. It does everything I need it to do to get from the computer screen and into the workshop. Russ It was my bad English. I use DelftShip to define the hull's form (3D modeling) and CAD for constructional details of the ship. Do you use DelftShip or some similar software? Sorry for misunderstanding.

russ Posted March 2, 2013 #8 Posted March 2, 2013 Ah. I did not understand it either. I do not have any need of 3D modeling so I just use CAD to draw everything.

Dida Posted March 3, 2013 Author #9 Posted March 3, 2013 (edited) I wanted to feel under the hand how the hull surface is running. I made "waterlines" 6 mm thick and glued them together. In right order of course. The holes in the waterline are here for accurate positioning the pieces.
