I thought is needed some more atmosphere to go with his woodworking and waterfall. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 11:02 Views : 760 The completed canoe. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 11:00 Views : 731 A small hole was drilled into the booms, and the end of a toothpick added to allow the rope an anchor to tie around. All the thread was run through a block of beeswax before use. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 10:58 Views : 815 The outrigger added.All the wood received several layers of Minwax Polyurethane with lots of sanding in between coats. Final sanding was 600 and 1000 grit paper with a final buff coat of a paper towel, which gives the wood a nice soft sheen. Not too glossy. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 10:54 Views : 784 After it was cut out I added looped stitching along the edges so it could get tied to the masts later. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 10:53 Views : 756 To give it a curve (these are called "crab claw" sails) I used 3M Spray Mount to affix the paper back to back. White glue caused it to wrinkle. As it was drying I wrapped it around a paper towel roll so it would retain the curve. Hangar Aircraft Category Date Preview Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 10:50 Views : 853 The real sails were woven matts, about 16" wide. I found a matt pattern on the inter webs and scaled it to my needs. Over a printed base sheet I added each row, overlapping a bit so it suggests the seams where the matts were sewn together. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 14-Aug-20 10:48 Views : 735 The parts ready for assembly. The bottom piece of cloth was what was provided in the kit. Not very prototypical. My new sail is the triangular piece. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 13-Aug-20 15:58 Views : 807 In some canoes, the Wae was attached with rope. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 13-Aug-20 15:56 Views : 377 The bow is more refined. Sharp knifed are essential. Also shown is the "Wae" or spreader, that the outrigger booms are attached to. Creosotewind Scratch Built Solid Models Parked 13-Aug-20 15:42 Views : 334 The kit is really basic and toy-like. But it does have some nice wood. The hull is a roughly shaped piece of koa. The canoe is approx. 1/12 scale.
