Building a Whaleboat, Episode 12

[@guspisano9777]

I may never build a model from scratch, but I have found that the detail you add to your builds have gone a long way to adding increased realism to my kit ships. Thank you for that.
Well done

Lovely video. I make coils by using double sided sticky tape to hold the rope while I coil it. Then apply white glue and transfer when dry.

[@shipmodelguy]

I tried using the two sided tape as you describe, but I just couldn’t get it to work. Not coordinated enough. Thanks for watching.

All ways enjoying watching your videos and learn so much from them.

[@shipmodelguy]

Glad you’re enjoying them. More to come.

Tom. Have you ever covered making three strand ropes using a rope walk? Or was the rope used in tubs purchased from an outside source?

[@shipmodelguy]

I've never used a rope walk. I've been fortunate to always have the right size line. If you want to see a good video on making rope, try Olha Batchvarov’s video on the subject. Also, Chuck Passerro from Syren Ship Models I believe has a video on using his ropewalk. Thanks for watching.
