IgorSky Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Hello to all!One of my current projects is a boat in a bottle.As a basis, I took a set for the construction of a boat from LAK-Design. This boat is on the 91st scale, but I plan to place a crew there, so it will be adapted to the 72nd scale.So, a pair of keel frames from the pear 0.7-0.8 mm was prepared in advance and I proceeded to assemble this kit.First I prepared a "skeleton" from a double keel frame, frames and conductor.

IgorSky Posted May 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Between the matter I cut a couple of oars and tried the figurines :).Because my bottle does not allow to make a version with oars, the oars will just lie in the boat, but I will have to make a mast with a sail.

IgorSky Posted May 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 First, for the assembly of the model, I glued a double-sided scotch to the boat support onto the timber bar.
