Brandy Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 I think I'm pretty safe saying that this is the only build ever on BM to feature a piano! Very nice work as usual! Ian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted June 23, 2022 Author Share Posted June 23, 2022 Tks Ian! 😂 A bar too.. I started painting the main teak deck with the Vallejo Set. I went back to the drawing board to finish the bar elements. Bar, back bar, club chairs. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bandsaw Steve Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Wow! Lovely! I have to be careful reading stuff like this; I’m starting to think I could maybe perhaps one-day get interested in this 3D printing business. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adm Lord De Univers Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Ye gods. What diameter string will you be using for the piano? David 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 A bar has definitely been done before, but a lot bigger! The prints all look good. Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman 29 Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 You know your classics well! 😜 Note that "Fetcher" in French means "Allez chercher" in very old french, but not more used today . 😂 The Montys have resurrected the word, not the cow. 😍 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandy Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Any updates on this, before you get too much involved in Bretagne? Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted August 11, 2022 Author Share Posted August 11, 2022 Hello Ian. I will start again on Monday Delphine, then it will be every other week, alternating with Bretagne. 👍 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted August 16, 2022 Author Share Posted August 16, 2022 Back to the SS Delphine project for 7 days: Drawing of the main deck aft ventilators, capstan, bar service, and the spare wheel helm. Remaining is the Brooklynn-made telephone to communicate with the engine and bridge, and the compass. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman 29 Posted August 20, 2022 Author Share Posted August 20, 2022 Delphine Dodge, Speed-boat champion at that time. Different configuration of the rear main deck: When new in 1921. The compass is mounted on the steering mechanism. In 1943, when the ship is called Dauntless. We see the course repeater, and devices on the right side of the helm I don't have the date of setting up the current configuration, can't find any pictures in the Delphine book. Drawing of the compass and phone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman 29 Posted August 22, 2022 Author Share Posted August 22, 2022 I have started to draw the fittings for the poop deck. There are still doors, ventilation ducts, lighting to be added. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 The day's progress, I sat at the bar after finishing the portholes, scuttles, doors and lighting. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie McBoatface Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Excellent! I'm growing to like this virtual model. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman 29 Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 This model is not really virtual anymore, Bertie! At least partially, like all ships that have to go through the drawing board first. I made good progress on the poop deck bar. The level of the bottles is good. Tomorrow I'll be back on the battleship Bretagne project for a week: 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
