Outstanding! The buoy and hatch are they 6 pieces and assembled like slices of a pie or one piece?

prodiction work in the shop.......buoys/hatches and the mast support (presented in an unfinished sail to show the idea)

Yeah, I also do not understand how this happens......messing around in the daytime and when I return in the morning from time to time something useful is laying on the workbench........must be one of the cats.

Same to you, keep safe and take care Scott.

Amazing work. Who would have thought that a simple Marine Engineer could produce something so exacting! Merry Christmas.

Camera enclosures and windows of the bridge wind deflector casted in clear resin, all were placed on standoffs for vacuum casting. Some of them are following the shape of the sail.

Hi Guys,


What I wanted to change from my AKULA built was the painting of the escape module hatch and emergency buoy. It was a PITA to mask and paint the red and white sectors.

This is the result on my efforts to work around that.

The buoy is provided with a light, I managed to add the protection bars for the light.
Also included the bolts on the escape module hatch.

Hey guys...can anyone give me the dimensions for the two small propellers on the stern planes?

Never considered printing clamps and holding jigs - now I feel stupid. What a logical idea and very well done. I shouldn't be surprised though, when I had ships in Cebu the yard engineers used to make most of their own tools. They'd take two paddle pop sticks, a piece of tin, some alloy rod and a rubber band and have a fully functioning turbo encabulator by the end of the day!

Crazy times at my real job, workload is like a sinus......I did manage to do some various works over the last weeks.....most of it was making jigs and tools.

Designed various dog clams for the CNC (excentric and normal clamps, pins,.......), I needed them to make the brass stribing stencils.

Finished the mother glove hard shell tooling to take the silicone.

Holy Crap!!!!!

Why and how did you print the large one?

Just to see if I could.......I will hang it on the wall in my workshop.....on a FDM printer......I used supports......27hr and 3 attempts later I popped it of the bedplate.
