I am sure there will be a lot of tips and tricks I will learn from an experienced modeler as you. I love your new workshop chair. Has 2 aims, comfortable to work on the model and to take a nap in the meantime glue is setting  Cheers Daniel [ Edited Mon Jan 31 2022, 03:32pm ] | ||

We have completed building and flaring frames #09 to #16 These we have dry fitted to the ships keel. We have glued up frame # 17 and cut out frame # 18, golly but we sure do have a long way to go. Regards Lawrence     | ||

Is that true and how tedious a task is this is. Hello Mike, The char is really not all that bad and very accurate that is for sure. I find it hard to get my utility box cutter a Olfal cutter blade in the char cut to remove the frames from the plank of Pear Wood that they are cut from. Have to be real careful here as they could break very easy. Found that my Exacto knife with it's small round handle a little to tedious for these thicker wood cuts. Once glued up the char is not hard to deal with. It is just doing scratch builds for so many years I am no longer used to dealing with char, but now I do not have tons of saw dust and shavings, yes the char is much faster and easier.
