Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

Still too many for me! Bang Head

The other difficult part is chamfering each strip to fit

Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

True. But it can still be made pretty good with a paint finish

Build update:

Not much today. Completed the sanding in preparation for skins, applied a coat of resin on the inside, and ruined my shorts when cyano spilled on them!

I too spilled cyano on my pants yesterday, i didnt realize it untill it beacame warm and i had to painfully rip off the hair that got glued on to the pant Bang Head

how about formica for the sheeting? it's slightly flexible.

Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

Now that the resin was dry, I could start on the skins.

The prow has seriously contorted compound curves. So I had to plank it perforce.

The rest was more straightforward. Completed the bottom.

Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

The plans stop at the frame. So, the rest is by looking at photos

Started work on the cockpit and hatches before putting the top skin. I will be putting the side skins last

Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

Finished the top skin finally. Guys, beware of cheap so-called 'Industrial Grade' Cyanoacrylates. I used one of these, while fitting the top skin it foamed on contact with the Sunboard, and formed a horrible hard bubble. As this was between the frame & skin, I went crazy removing it. Stick to Fevikwick

Boat modellers burning the (almost) midnight oil..........The build is coming along beautifully.

I use this. No complaints whatsoever. Let me know if you need some. Best stuff for sunboard and acrylic.

Yes it is essentially a Crash Tender. It was used to rescue pilots from the Thames.

My apologies, got caught up in my own web of dreamy assumptions and fantasies of pilots bailing out over London at the height of the BOB . In fact these boats, Nos. 93 and 94, were built much after the war served at Calshot during the period 1952 - 1958. My apologies as I would like the historical accuracy to be maintained.

Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

I used the cut outs from the deck to make locators for the hatch covers. I plan a role for these when waterproofing.

There are 2 hatch covers, one easily removable for the battery, and one screwed down for the motor & ESC.

Applied Resin to toughen the hull. Have to wait 2 days for it to be fully dry Sad

After that I will be putting another coat

So, to fill in the time decided to build an Avispad Wink

Re: 1/10th Scale Baby Bootlegger

I had coated the outside with Resin. The sunboard skins needed strengthening, and impact resistance, hardness and toughness.

I put too thick a first coat, and it took 3 weeks to dry! Funda is thin coats, let them dry, then another coat.

Anyway, painting is done. Grin
