Is this made from "blue foam" ?   What skin ? Epoxy resin ? With glass or without?   Just being nosey :embarrassed:

Prof,  I think they are tubes of hardener for two part car bodywork filler, the paste part is in the blue tin on the left.  However that is part of my question too, the usual fillers (polyester) would dissolve the blue foam unless protected.  Bassplayer will put us right. :-))

This is absolutely right and as I mentioned above the foam is protected with glass cloth and epoxy. Prof, the final finish is sprayed on with two pack automotive filler.

Thank you Geoff .
Kerkyra ferry has to wait a bit. I had to finish this one as it is an order from a new french company that is going to market it quite soon!

THANK YOU YANI .  :-))  ,

But I steel have a question :
 
- what putty / filler You use for smooth finished surface , before painting .
- do You know some soft putty / filler for brush applying ?.
 
MARIUS
 
P.S - Good Luck with the French Company !.

Post by: bassplayer1 on March 20, 2015, 11:29:55 pm
Prof
as I mentioned above I use a sprayed on two pack automotive filler-primer.You can buy it from shops that sell paints and stuff for cars. The smooth finish is achieved by sanding it with a fine grade wet and dry sand paper. The brand I use is called BODY and I'm sure you can get it in Romania. Yes, you can do it with a brush but it will be more work in sanding!

Very nice. What tools are using for scribing and are using a template? The depth seem very consistent.

Here are the tools and tenplate I use. For more complicated shapes I make the templates out of cardboard or tape. For square panels I use the DYMO tape shown in the second photo, works a treat! There are many videos on You Tube showing the technique, just type "scribing"

The upper hull is now moulded, time for the lower half. It's going to be in one piece now, no parting board. Some photos!

Here are some photos of the final product straight out of the mould, it just needs some trimming and cleaning
There are also two videos demoulding the upper and lower parts of the hull and I'm not saying by any means that that's
the proper way of doing it but I have no free space in the workshop ( I have to clean up one of these days)

Some photos of the masters of the antenas and others. The two periscopes and the all brass antena are going to stay as they are, I think they are too thin and they will brake very easily if casted in epoxy
