    Excellent work.
    Just a quick camera tip: if you use powertools with a plane of workspace, like that jigsaw, place the camera 90-120 degrees from where jus stand to your dominant hands side, you are the least likely to cover up your work with your body, giving us the best view.

    Excellent work. Am looking to build this kit, but feel now an easier planking kit to start.
    Great work

      Thanks for the complement. Planking is one of those tasks that have been difficult for me. I have learned by lots of practice and study. The biggest help for me was the Nautical Research Guild Half-Hull Planking Kit. thenrgstore.org/products/half-hull-planking-project
      I made a short video about this on my channel.
      And there are many build logs on Model Ship World that detail how it is assembled.

    Many thanks for the video,, I've built many wooden ships over years and the one tool that I couldn't live without is my mini circular table saw,,only a suggestion but it saves so much work,,thanks again

      thanks for the encouragement, and I think you are right. I've been looking at mini table saws. Especially to cut my own wood, when I run out of what stock is provided in the kits. - Ken

    I enjoy your channel. The way you talk is plain start forward with a lot of common sense. I like that. I am just learning how to build model boats. To fill cracks I use bondo it works well. Some you tuber (two of them) use bondo so I tried it an it works well. A modeler I watch on you tube is Tom Lorea on you tube is excellent to watch. I think his name is spelled wrong. the spelling is wrong

    Take sawdust an glue mix together makes great puddly. Sawdust from the same wood you are working on will give you the best result.

    • @ken_boats
      @ken_boats  4 года назад +1

      Not sure yet. I bought a kit for the "Spray". An oyster sloop which Joshua Slocum rebuilt and single-handedly sailed around the world in 1898. I loved the book. It seems like a simpler build, where I can focus on my craftsmanship.
      I am waiting on the delivery of the Mamoli kit. It has a more complicated mast and rigging system for which i am not yet skilled, but something I need to improve upon.
      I'll probably choose a boat and start in October

    you called it the captains gig,
    the gig is the smallest of the boats a ship of the line would have, used to just transport the one person.
    this is the exact opposite: the largest of the boats.

    • @ken_boats
      @ken_boats  Год назад

      You are quite right! I don't know why I mis-spoke and used that term. I went back to the kit instructions and drawings and they used the term "Long Boat". Good catch.

      A reference is made to the seller in the description below the video.
      Manufactured by Panart Mantua and purchased from Premier Ship Models
      I bought it from
      premiershipmodels.com.au/product-category/model-boat-kits/
      but I think it is sold by many distributors.
      Search for "HMS Victory Launch"
      I hope this helps

      I stand corrected! when I looked at the Premier Ship Models site, they seem to no longer sell it, and a general web search did not find any other sellers either. :-( So I'm sorry, but I cannot tell you where to buy it. Keep looking. Panart Mantua may make another "batch" of kits one day. I am waiting for the Medway Longboat to come back on the market, since it is currently out of stock.

      I used to search for websites that sold model boats and then looked for those boats that are in my skill range. But lately I have found another site that is most useful: modelshipworld.com/
      they have lots of discussion groups and build logs. One discussion group is titled General Ship Model Kit Discussions.
