DSiemens Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 I've been asked to do a presentation on ship in bottle building at a library in town. To do so I needed something quick and easy so I started on this Bermuda sloop. I'll have to get more photo's later but what I've done is carved out the hull and planked one side. I left the other side unplanked to show how the ship goes together. I'm not sure I'll ever officially bottle this particular ship. I think I'll keep it for future demonstrations. I definitely need to bottle a good Bermuda sloop though. I really like these particular vessels.

DSiemens Posted February 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 I forgot about this build log until I just started the other one. Actually this ship is done. I have it set up so that I can show how masts will raise and lower while connected to this plank of wood. It's come in handy in a couple different model shows. I have started another build log for a beginners Bermuda Sloop. It will look very similar to this one but will have some more complicated detailed parts left out like the planking. Planking ships in bottles is something I started doing recently and I need to get more practice on it. Most of my ships so far have been done without planking.
