Duchess of Kingston Build Video 2

It is time to fair the hull!!! We will install some "filler blocks" that will really help us apply the planking later on. But most importantly, we will work out the exact shape of the hull. That is the main point of this video.

I’ll look forward to following this build. As a semi- experienced wooden ship kit modeler, I’m amazed at the amount of precision you’re putting into the hull at this point. After planking, maybe a second planking, all that work will be invisible. Unless you desire a perfect museum quality model, you can skip a lot of the "perfection" steps in the hull. I finished a Model Shipways "Syren" frigate a while ago…. Every gun is completely rigged, deck furniture as described in the plans, but nobody looks at all that, the contours of the hull etc, it’s the complexity of the rigging that’s the thing that’ll draw attention. Btw I’d recommend the Syren kit to anyone with least intermediated skills/experience. The instruction book and plans are great. It was my last build, unfortunately, age (81) has limited my vision and dexterity to where I just enjoy others' efforts😢😅

Ben, looking great! The extra time into the bulwarks will make for a straight and robust ship.

I am glad that I have found your channel.
Currently, I am also building DoK model, which is my 3rd wooden ship model.
I'm looking forward to the next video.

It’s no wonder so many wooden ship kits are purchased and never finished!

I have a few plank on frame builds under my belt and I find it better to use some shipwrigth techniques to get it right, thanks for sharing mate

Much prefer your knowledgeable and entertaining commentary to the loud and irritating music so many utubers use.

[@TheMidwestModelShop]

Thanks. The few times I’ve tried using music, someone likes it, some one complains, or no one says anything at all. So I’ve just given up on it.
