Well, the inner epoxy and glass cloth application is not elegant that's for sure. But, It's done. When it's all dry and fully hardened I'll cut off the excess and i guess thats it for the inside for now. While I'm waiting for the RC components to show up, I'll start in on the outside. #smitrotterdam #modelships #modelboats #billingboats #balsawood #propellershaft #housing #glasscloth #fibreglass #epoxy
all those clamps for one length of plank. 😂
Moving right along today. I removed the tacks that held the planks over night as to dry to shape. I then glued them down. Worked out perfect. The small area to be filled with a weird shaped plank between the hull and the main planks was hard to get at to get a good shape. So to make it easier, I used the reverse shape from the laser cut sheet. Anybody confused? Makes perfefect sense to me. I pinned another tear of planking on each side to dry to shape. i soaked the planks for about an hour in warm water, flipping them after 15 minutes. I figured I should put the second deck cabins in place, and maybe Ill glue it together without securing it down. Im not sure if thats a good idea yet. I think tgats all for today.
