NickDandy Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Pretty much into it already. Using original Gorilla Glue and Carpenter glue. Next is to template the deck and then glue strips on the template. First have to cut the second bulkhead as it is not cut correctly since new.

NickDandy Posted December 13, 2019 Author Share Posted December 13, 2019 (edited) Template for deck support. Deck sub floor and a few clamps. And one problem that my brain did not see while following the instructions. The access to the rudder is completely covered. I am going to have to make a hatch, this should have been in the instructions, in English.

NickDandy Posted January 11, 2020 Author Share Posted January 11, 2020 Update. Deck laid and clear coated. Rubber cover created. Next on the list is to level the deck vs the cabin, somehow it is a bit off. And maybe add rivets to the frame on the deck. Then start bending wood around the back of the ship.

mustang1989 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Mighty crafty with the wood work there Nick!! Beautiful work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickDandy Posted February 23, 2020 Author Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) Added extra detail, because a boat needs to move. Putting up the railings, this was the easy curve the back was the worst. Had to make new parts with leftover pieces. Solution to rudder hatch for future R/C. Steel and Magents. I still need to find 1mm plywood and prop shaft. And wood for the railings.

NickDandy Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 Back again. Too much RV White. I am thinking of Black Band on stack and rail, but seem that this might not be enough to tone it down. Below is their image suggestion, But I had a lot of RV White paint. Kagemusha, Uncarina, Rick Griewski and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickDandy Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 From bicycle spoke nipple to lamp stand in one easy Unimat! Envisioning that the grey is anti-slip paint. Need to add the funnel strips. And repaint one part on the other side, masking tape pulled the paint off. Shocking. mustang1989, Out2gtcha, TorbenD and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
