Whaler RAU IX 1 : 45 - Graupner

[Wolle]

Small upgrade

The small ladder is also attached to the chimney and the chimney is now finished. Finally I painted it with matt clear varnish.
Then I started with the lifeboats and the associated conditions.

We continue with the railing. Here are the railing supports prepared for this.

 

[Wolle]

Well, the beginning has been made.

First the 1 mm holes were drilled into the deck and the first supports were glued in, at least until the first arch came into the railing, then support by support was pulled onto the railing and glued into the hole.

By the way, the railing was pretty bent.

I clamped one end in the vice and the other end in the cordless screwdriver, then held it tight and twisted the wire until it was straight. Works really well

 

[Wolle]

Hello, the railing of the main deck is also on it. Now some more color.

 

[Wolle]

Now the child, um, ship also has a name.

 

[Wolle]

Another step forward, but only a small one.

Attached the chain railing and almost glued my fingers together with superglue.

 

[Wolle]

Today I started with the railing on the upper deck.

I also noticed that the kit is missing the 5 companionways.

I have to order some more.

Do you have any tips?

 

[Wolle]

Railing without end

The railing of the steering deck is also almost finished

 

[Wolle]

The railing is also finished, the staircases have also been installed. Now I, as a simple sailor, have been sentenced to paint the railing.

 

[Wolle]

Small upgrade.

The supports for the footbridge have also been adjusted and installed.
The footbridge is still lying loosely on the supports.

Then I attached the first part of the handrail to the bridge wall

 

[Wolle]

Hello The handrails are attached.

The bridge is also finished and is firmly glued.

The rear mast, the chimney and the first superstructures are already on.
