such a great hull design. All kinds of water, we had a 175 with 115hp.Loved it

Had one just like it but was powered by a Johnson 100HP. Caught a lot of fish and made some great memories!

sorry roy just noticed it was seven years ago if it was going to happen it would have happened by now

one other concern roy none off business but would hate to see that beautiful work off art catch on fire and burn to the water line on first run is the way u have the wires sitting on that brushed motor goodluck heatshield or reroute or just lift the off

very nice only dislike is the rubber around the deck holes did such a beautiful job on the whole boat and that just doesn't look right if i made it i would pull it off and replace it with maybe a timber trim or something abit classier its to nice not to also love the sound on idle of to thats awesome welldone great job

I'm in need of help.I am trying to repair an old Galleon for a friend of mine.What ever glue I use whether it's cyanoacetic or epoxy the parts won't stick. I obviously can't use wood glue as I have to hold the parts in place by tweezers with no room to spare. Any ideas? Thanks.

I have a triple cockpit barrel back that I constructed but got stuck applying the finish. How are you applying the Z poxy and varnish? Are you airbrushing it? Paint brush? Sponge?

We have three generations working on this kit off and on for the last couple of years, (me, my son, my dad) and yet just don't have this kind of time to put into it. Floored by the fact that you redesigned it as a plank on frame rather than the solid hull. We did a small plank on frame model (the British Longboat also by Model Shipways.) And boy was that time consuming even though much less elaborate than this! Anyway, the solid hull is looking pretty good after a lot of carving so we feel that's not a bad way to go either. Also the castings in the kit are of parts that in practice on hard working ships probably all would have been painted rather than varnished. But yes your wood re-creations are lovely. These old Baltimore Clippers really did have beautiful lines, a fascinating era in maritime history.

Hi Roy! Im in the progress of building my first boat kit, how did you make the waterline? Do you have any tips on making it the easiest way?

Great build and kitbash of the kit. I have this same kit I inherited from my father and wondered what it might take to rework to a plank-on-frame. After watching your video, clearly it's quite doable. Thanks for sharing.

Nice car! Was this a restoration project of yours?

Outstanding! Excellent craftsmanship. The windshield really shows it and the glass slid from below was ingenious. A minor tip- don't bother using marine varnish for little models. Just buy a little can of polyurethane varnish. It will dry tougher and more shiny than marine varnish. Marine varnishes are softer and duller and less able to be polished than polyurethane varnishes because they are designed to be left out in the blazing hot sun and cold winter nights without cracking from expanding and contracting. Not the case with your little models. Water won't hurt it either. Polyurethane varnishes will go on thin and dry hard and glossy.

Thank you very much.

Hi Roy, If you get any water base paint where you don't want it, you can wet a clean paint brush, dab it on a paper towel then go in and lift the paint. When you get paint on the brush, rinse it immediately and repeat the process. Enjoying the series! Thank you for sharing

Wonderful video. I am doing the same.. but with the Eisnor Bluenose prints and then another after.. Great job

You did a GREAT Job on your Build my Man!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful work Roy! My current build is the whale ship "VIOLA" .....three years in the making!

Greetings from Australia Roy! I’ve been enjoying your videos and learning lots. Thanks for the details you are showing - and not being afraid to show things that go wrong!! That’s how we learn!

definately SCRATCH build, wonderfull work, congratulations

Sorry, hit thr button too soon--for proper style chain, try clock makers supplies--Time savers and Meadows and Passemore come to mind right now. Most sizes available in brass plate or plain steel.

To the best of my knowledge, twisted chain has never been used for an anchor chain!!!

Thanks for the shout out on Rob's book!

RUclips randomly suggested this to me and I am glad it did... Very Epic workshop Roy. A+ Man Cave

Cool basement!! You have lots of really cool tools :)

Buddy. wow! top content, have a great day. =))

Great work Brother

Great job Roy

Go play with your poor kitty

I am leaning towards a full wood ship build At 63 I have time on my hands

Is that your cat mewing

That heads up is because in my youth I didn’t and the cap wasn’t screwed down tite Use your imagination on what happened 😊

Put a small marble in the container and agitation will mix it really well Put your finger on the cap as you shake the bottle

It’s gonna be interesting to see if you respond to my comments So many people do things like this And never respond

What is the the small sticks for I think it’s to set the small peace’s you put together to make sure those joints hold fast With extra strength

Wow Your a retired engineer for sure Great work done ?? Are you ship write A person who build ships from paper design to actual building

year 2106?!! 🤣😂

Well done indeed! Real dedication. I bought a 1955 BN1 M that the previous owner had "modified to include small back seat like the 6 cylinder model. It had a sump plug that was bonded with putty and leaked. so after collecting it and driving it 1000 miles home it needed oil every 200 miles! I was very lucky in finding a replacement sump pan from an Austin Atlantic at a country garage on the way home. What a pleasure all the last 400 miles back home. I had a professional shop do the restoration. Repainted it in Healey silver blue. Sadly the restorer persuaded me to sell it to him as my business commitments meant I was not using it. He immediately exported it to the UK. SAD.

Very glad to see someone finally modeling Newburyport's own, USS Wasp. In 1814, under the command of Master Commandant Johnston Blakeley, she raided the English Channel and destroyed two British sloops of war, HMS Reindeer and HMS Avon, the only US naval ship to destroy two comparable enemies on one cruise. The Wasp also sank a dozen valuable British merchantmen. She was lost at sea with all hand some time after November, 1814. Her 173 man crew were all from Newburyport or the adjacent towns, so her loss created a great hardship for the community. America's most accomplished, yet least known sailing man of war!

Roy Crane - are you still in MA, I live in central MA, Do think you could help me Identify a 1950's replica MG TD nearby. I love cars and can change all the fluids etc, but need something reliable for a fun car. I would be happy to pay you if you gave it a look over for me,

I just took possession of one of these (V165 though) with a Mercury 200 on the back, maybe just a little over powered. Get in, shut up and hold on! ;-) It will do 40 knts like nothing but you can watch the gas gauge go down like a rock falling from the sky!

Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe ...

wow you and your son are so talented Mr Crane.

2106??? Have I been in a coma?

my first car was a white '61 1600. didn't know the the twin lens taillights came out in '60. ...mine was always, like this one, a quick starter. was never a problem to crank start if necessary.

i bought my 54 100-4 back in the 60s for 400usd and had it all through college no problems what a great car and lots of fun with my friends sitting up on the back trunk cruising

Muy bellas maquetas. Gracias por publicarlas...........

nice restoration...as always. :)

Lovely

I’m building the HMS victory 1:98 scale and need a case for it. Let me know. Thanks

Great work . Do you have any plans?
