Yes make step by step of all of the models that you build.

If you rough the brass sheet with very fine sandpaper, wipe it with acetone, and then immediately put on a thin coat of 10# shellac the paper pattern will stick to the shellac and won't fall off when working it.

Ho fatto molta ricerca per capire come venivano costruite le ancore. Le ricerche fatto, sul vecchio continente, sui libri non hanno dato particolari e sufficienti spiegazioni, allora ho fatto ricerca tra i paesi Arabi on un'attenzione all'Egitto dove costruiscono ancora velieri storici. L'ancora veniva costruita in tre parti fondamentalmente; il fusto principale, la mezza luna e la parte in legno che chiamano stabilizzatore che altro non è che un impedimento all'incaglio. I pezzi di metallo venivano fatti in colata negli stampi di sabbia, poi venivano uniti, fusto e mezzaluna. Il fusto viene inserito in una asola al centro della mezza luna e poi veniva bloccato sotto la mezzaluna. Per quanto riguarda le foglie sulle punte estreme, venivano fatte durante lo stampo. Io prendo un tondino da 4 mm con cui fa il fusto, poi utilizzo una piattina da 1,5 mm da cui ricavo la mezzaluna da cui ricavo anche le foglie e....tanto lavoro di levigatura

Just began construction of a whaleboat using this book as a reference.

Excellent presentation, there is a place for all sizes of ships but smaller ships are all of the things that you say. Manufacturers must have a market for big ships and certainly the margins will be bigger.

bonjour , je suis partiellement d'accord , les petits ont leurs places c'est vrai et ce faire la main dessus encore mieux après le but final , c'est pour moi finir sur un gros bateaux .juste 1 et mon choix est déjà fait et pour cela les petits me permettent de me perfectionner

A big problem with the larger models is display space. Smaller models can be better accommodated when deciding where to display them. Great video, looking forward to seeing more.

There is an excellent tv show called "The North Water" it's about a whaling ship. It's either a Schooner or Barque not 100% sure but I would love to build one, any recommendations?

I really love 17th century men of war like La Couronne and HMS Sovereign of the Seas. So much so that kit bashing and scratch building loses much of its tedium, and cost is no object if you are willing to work for it, and the patience and dedication demands are very high. What counters those is the passion for such elegant and detailed warships.

I agree 100% with your conclusion and your reasoning. I'd rather build 2 or 3 quality smaller crafts than wasting my time, money, and sanity on a monstrosity that I would have to get rid of my 60" television to display.

I need both of them !

I have followed your very good videos and purchased what I thought was an easy model to start with when I have the time. It is the Panart Armed Pinnace Lancia Armata 1800 1:16. It is open frame and has triple planking. Not easy! So I have now purchased the Corel Sloup Brittany Oyster Boat 1:25. I will start with that. How difficult is the planking? Ok this has got to be easier, Billing Boats HMS Renown steam pinnace. Please could you do model builds of these boats so that I can stop buying and start building. Thank you.

Probably the most common sense video you or anybody have put out on building model wooden vessels. I am 80 years old and would be crazy to start building a 74 ship of the line now.

I agree, I love making smaller boats, I don't make ships with canons, and I particularly like the look of the Vanguard models fishing boat series. I also like the ships of exploration. Shackleton's Endurance from Occre was a great model to make, a larger model but so much less repetitive and complex compared to the big old ships of the line, and so much more interesting. The elegant racing boats of the 1930s are also a favourite for me. I loved building the Dorade from Amati, again, a larger model but simple enough to be enjoyable and not repetitive. I think that the small models from MidWest are a great place for anybody to start if they want to get into the hobby.

Those swivel guns are so cool, how did you make them?

What kinds of tools are needed to build model ships? Awesome video by the way, keep it up!

I really like Vanguard models (Chriss Watton) approach.

Hi - great video and thanks for sharing! Really insightful, especially for the planking as I find that so hard to get right. Question about the nails. After the plank is glued, do you cut the head of the nail off and sand the remainder of the nail down/push it in or do you take the nail out when the glue is dry?

I want to kiss you

Vanguard models are very impressive

I am building The Dutchess of Kingsdom from Vanguard Models. Everything is absolutely 1st class

A great tutorial for beginners and not so experience builders

Ciao, una domanda dove hai trovato quelle spille in metallo?

Thanks for your super work and sharing with us

Thank you for the great video . The planking process is excellent.

Hi Tagliamare, nice videa, thank you. What do you think about Harold Hahn‘s method? Btw the radio in the background is a nice touch. Shall try the shelack next time, looks nice. Take care!

Hi Tagliamare! Thanks for the review. Btw: The Rif Winfield book can be bought at Amazon for USD 900…

Hi, how are you doing with the ship building?😊

Nice 👍🏻🙂

Keep it Looks very nice 👍🏻🙂

Looks great

👏👏👏

nice job mu friend,salute from puerto rico

Lovely work. A suggestion from the model railway world re the flukes. In future, you could solder 4 pieces of brass together and cut/file them out in one action. Then de-solder.

excellent tutorial, I happen to be working on the anchors for my Sherbourne model, and I also broke the anchor at the top where the hole is supposed to be drilled for the ring. Great solution for me.

Perfect work ! Glad to see that vid. Nevertheless, u should add some mussels on them for more realism ! ( i am joking, very well done )

Very nice tutorial ! Can you share the anchor plan?

Was considering getting into ship building, do you have to do all this, even for beginner kits?

Un forrado del casco perfectamente hecho, donde todas las tracas que pasan por la cuaderna maestra llegan a la proa, terminando en la roda, como ha de ser.

Now imagine making 100 of this. Model builders surely have a lot of patient

Unfortunately it was closed, when I visited Napoli some years ago. Have to come back some day …

Go to Napoli : great models, and best pizza " nel mondo ." It's a beautiful bay too. They say, owing to the gorgeous view " See Napoli... and die ! "

2:14, S Giuseppe Due is a masterpiece!

Thank you for sharing. It looks amazing

Amazing work! Thank you for making these videos!

I'm reading the book 'Moby Dick'. This is very handy to help envision the action of the men and the ropes as they drop and pursue the whales they are hunting.

Qual a melhor madeira para esse processo?
