- This is the forty-fifth in a series of videos I’m going to produce to document the building of my Trumpeter 1:200 model Titanic. In this episode I cover the following elements:
- Fitting a switching rectifier to reduce the lighting circuits voltage from battery voltage (13V-11V) down to 11V.
- Fitting the supporting pillars to A deck.
If you want to see more regular updates have a look at my Instagram page (same name as the channel). I post photos as I'm building there so you don't have to wait for the videos to be edited!
List of parts used:

Like a layman witnessing the discoveries of Newton or Einsten, I am amazed, addicted and completely blown away by the skill, knowledge and artistry you show in every one of your videos
Thank you for your comment, very nice words. I’m glad you’ve been enjoying the videos 🙂
Good to see a shout-out to Encyclopedia Titanica. Many years ago, I used to be one of the moderators on the Message Board and I was always astounded at the quality of the research and debate that took place. I also made many good friends on the Board.
Aah nice, yeah it’s been an invaluable resource for me on this project for sure! Remarkable how much information there is there
I'm from Australia and it's 4am. I stayed up all night for this
I’m flattered! Conversely I have stayed up for the cricket. Hopefully my video was more satisfying for you than the the ashes was for me😛
Rob those pillars really add realism to the decks ,amazing .
Yeah I’m a big fan of them now. As always it’s the little things that just catch your eye that I find the most satisfying! Thank you for the comment 🙂
Hi Rob, yes the LED's are so small for practical reasons in as much that they must get tucked away in nasty little inaccessible places. That's what worries me with what I will have to face at some point! I will be planning my approach to this aspect very carefully! Your electronics know how does help the novice quite a bit so thank you for that. Regards J
Fiddly little blighters I’d say! I think the best thing with the inaccessible places is to try and make it as modular as possible so you have an element of redundancy.
I’m cheating a bit since the electronics is my specialism! There are a good few books on hobbyist electronics which are fantastic if you’re in need!
Keep well,
Robbie
@@TheModelBoatGuy 😉👍
It is honestly amazing how much detail you are packing into this ship!
more sterling work, and as always making electronics look easy
Thank you!
She's looking fantastic, what a beautiful model. Happy Christmas to you as well and have a prosperous New Year. We'll see you after the holidays.
Thank you! And you too, happy Christmas and a happy New Year!
Could you take a flat rectangular magnet and lay out all those tiny drill bits? That way you can see them and not worry about dropping the rest while looking for a particular size.
Yes I do need to get on and organise those drills. It’s one of those jobs I’ve never quite got round to!
Thanks for the update! By the way you should use off yellow for the funnels once you come to that stage
I always imagined the funnels to be a peach colour, I don't know if I got that from one of the numerous movies or the THG guys that helped Trumpeter with their model. I'm a Titanic novice at best though, so my opinion doesn't really count ^^
@@thernotsoealmackay off yellow is in a titanic colour pack just so you know and it looks exactly like the titanic funnels
Eh up, I’m still not certain on my funnel colour. I have the TS-77 flat flesh colour but I can’t tell if that will be too peachy or not. I’m hoping to get some of the 3D printed funnels soon so might be able to try out colours on the trumpeter funnels first before I commit to anything
Hello video nice😍👍
holy shit
I’m approaching this area of the build. My mojo was gone for awhile but after watching your video I may spend some time at the ol’ girl tonight
Yeah I know what you mean, it’s hard to keep up the motivation over such a long project. Still no problem with taking a break and coming back to it later!
Yayyyy
Line regulation should be 1% or less.
Could you not put a negative link sequentially to each led to find the faulty one?
You could, just have to be careful to make sure the voltage you put across them isn’t too high
@@TheModelBoatGuy Have to say, your videos are brilliant! I’m just about to start my build which will be RC but it was your videos which made me want to do it. I don’t think I would of had a clue where to start otherwise. The links in the descriptions are life savers so thanks for your attention to detail!
Are you going to build interior for c d e f and g deck
I’m not no. They just can’t be seen so I don’t really see the point! Usually I tend to make anything that is visible inside or outside the model, and leave it there. Decks below B deck just can’t be seen so I won’t on this occasion
@@TheModelBoatGuy why not have it so the model is separated in like decks each individual deck but is still al. Connected together
You`ve obviously added a lot of unnecessary detail to the interior. What`s going to happen when one of the furnishings come loose. ?..A rattling piece or pieces in a un-accessible part of the ship would drive me nuts !
Hi there, it is visible if you know where to look!
WRT coming loose, yes as you say there will inevitably be things coming loose over time as there is on most models. I tend to use more glue on things in hard to see areas to try and limit that as much as possible.
The decks are all accessible thought, superstructure decks are not glued down, I’ve used threaded inserts (essentially PCB Spencer’s) so I can lift them off to fix things.
I'll think i was also make a titanic but should I make it out of paper or plastic ? please reply the answer of my question
Well plastic will last longer I reckon! But paper might be easier to work with. Personally I’d use plastic myself
