Title: SDM TUG Salvador Dalì by alimurimeta
Post by: ALIMURIMETA on January 07, 2016, 12:17:14 pm

Hi all, I open this topic for you to see the phases of graphic design of my current contiere. It is a new type of harbor tugs, ship docking module, characterized by the propulsion system consists of two schottels drive staggered along the center line of the hull. With this propulsion is possible to make any movement, also the transverse translation. For this reason, the sdm tugs have the form of a sleeve giant.
The design covers both the hull and the propulsion system.

Hi everyone here is another photo of the block construction phases of the tug Salvador Dali.
I keel and printed on paper and pasted all on a panel of MDF 6mm advanced from its cabinet home. With the tunnel I cut the pieces of the hull. The MDF is easy to cut and has no defects or chipping. Also in this case it is at zero cost
With the aid of row and brackets I glued the ordinates and the terminals of the bow and stern, This model has two fins of drift that serve to stabilize when lateral translation

Hello everyone. I applied a coat of epoxy grout from the body to the hull. The dosage of this grout is very easy because it is 1: 1 by weight. To conserve km of sandpaper, sanding the hull to remove the putty plentiful I did wet and after 7 days after application putty, so that the same is completely cross-linked, so nice dry.


(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-gwqyu-h_Bqs/VguW5FT4NdI/AAAAAAAADwI/QM-FBODHHyg/s800-Ic42/DSCN7928.JPG)


I also had a hand to superstructures. The achieve with polystyrene from 1 mm (plastic card type). For cutting use a common size balsa sharp. To give the right forms to the various pieces of the deck, I made masks cut vinyl stickers with the cutting plotter, which apply on the sheets of polystyrene. In this way the parts are very precise.

SORRY FOR MY POOR ENGLISH. I'M LEARNING


So, another brief update from the yard sdm tug.
I spent half the afternoon to polish the hull after waiting a week after grouting epoxy. Effectively giving some time to the grout to crosslink completely, was an advantage. Sanding was quite fast and without consuming meters of sand paper. I applied a strip of plastic card to the hull to simulate the edge of the true where are installed rubber fenders.
With a little patience I assembled "dry", ie only with tape, the wheelhouse, to check the shapes and proportions. Looking good

(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IpeJ3tdhd14/VhIenUDElwI/AAAAAAAADwI/lMGHL5DFLu8/s800-Ic42/DSCN7944.JPG)


I used epoxy resin and glass fabric for the reinforcement of the hull. The resin has a pot life of almost a 'now, so it's no hurry too. First I cut out a piece of fiberglass from 50grams / square meter, slightly larger than the hull. Except I prepared resin (ratio 100: 25) per 50 grams. To wet the glass fiber, I used a roller to paint the walls, obviously smaller

Fantastic fiberglass work.
You're making quick progress with your build.
My future build would be one of the Tug Malta fleet.


I was probably the fourth person to build the SDM tug.
Those are my line drawings on tissue.  :-)) 

The tug can easily traverse using gears ratios, and servo expanders or your transmitter to
rotate the steering servos up 180° or more. My drives rotate about 270° this allows for
steering when running sideways, or when trying to walk a barge or tow.
I still can't walk a barge on demand... I have to work to get a barge walking.

Your sea trials look great.
I made a MkI SDM in 1/50 – not many of that version around. Same hull as the Dali but at that smaller size it is much deeper.
My build was inspired by Umi and JPcat's MkIIs and Steve Cox's Suwanney River.
The fenders were a nightmare.
I look forward to your progress.

Hi, as mentioned in a previous post, I show you pictures of the mechanical propulsion and maneuvering.
I decided to change the system of rotation of the SCHOTTEL proposed by graupner. The toothed barbell clove is weak and does not allow a complete rotation through 360 °. I found in a shop model car rc of the toothed crowns used for the couplings of the gears. I bought two 80 teeth 0.8 module. Crowns I fastened with three screws to the bracket to the disc that came with the servants.
To fix the servants, I made a small castle in plywood and aluminum, resin that will be to ensure maximum strength and adhesion to the hull. The servos will have to be mounted upside down, to make dovetailed crown and pinion SCHOTTEL. The trick to have slightly increased the draft of the hull (about 10%) has assured me that the servos do not touch the compartment cover RC
The first reduction stage of the engines has been realized with a pair of cylindrical gears. The ratio is 1: 3.3. To protect the gears will realize a casing with plexiglass transparent, to be able to always see the status of the teeth and their lubrication
The second reduction stage is provided by the bevel of the SCHOTTEL (1: 2). So I have a total reduction of 1: 5.3 which seems to work very well in the models of sdm tug already made in this scale.

Hello,thanks to all for the compliments. My work comes from that of UMI, JP cat and other friends who have already made a sdm tug
[size=78%] [/size]

[/size]Hello, I received the new radio, a taranis X9E, with whom I made the programming of the rotation of shottels. I spent a couple of evenings to the PC, using the management program sw radio, to understand how best to set the rotary controls already installed and the response of the servants. With patience I got a satisfactory result. From the perspective of "hardware", I had to replace the propeller of SCHOTTEL right, as both the SCHOTTEL had the right-handed helix (which is why the package was a spare propeller-clockwise). Without the amendment I put the model in the bathtub and I immediately noticed the difference in driving and maneuvering. With the two right-handed helices model tended to veer even with SCHOTTEL in 0 ° position. Bringing Shottel position + 90 °, the model moves but obliquely. With counter-rotating propellers left / right the problem seems solved. I can not wait to try the model in "open field" (pool of a residence near home) to fully understand the ability to maneuver.[size=78%]
[/size]Returning to the speech radio: I realized that the knobs of the potentiometers are a little uncomfortable, so I went in the electronics store near home and I bought a pair of knobs 25 mm diameter aluminum that are used in the DJ console. Unfortunately the hole for attachment to the pin of the potentiometer is slightly larger (6 mm against 4.5 mm of the pot) and the corn is too high and not good greenhouse on the pin. Therefore I decided to leave the original knobs and fix on these new ones, having widened the hole to make them fit on the original knobs.[size=78%]

Hello to all
To achieve proceed as for my smit nederland. In practice I have realized the jigs adhesive vinyl that I applied to a sheet of Plexiglas from 2 mm thick. With tunnel and bench grinder I finished the edges of the windows following the profile of the dime.
Not to confuse with the various windows, I used vinyl film of various colors.



I decided to apply a strip of 0.3 mm plastic card all around the slide of Plexiglas. I trimmed the opening in the wall and entered the wheelhouse glass plexy with all piping plasticard. The end result seems to be quite truthful.
Tonight I carry with me the camera and snap some pictures of what I have said.
Just for the record, unlike the smit nederland, all windows and openings in the wheelhouse are hand-cut: no laser cutting. Great satisfaction in realizing them but with an enormous amount of time and especially of "praise" to the Creator

HELLO ballastanksian


I assure you that the knobs mounted potentiometers make it more intuitive maneuver of schottels. With the use of the curves of setting of the input and the response of the servos, the pods can be rotated by 180 ° to the side. The servos are mounted digital one with maximum rotation of +/- 90 °, I mechanically amplified with the gears.

Hello everyone, I ask friends who have already built the Salvador Dali, which is the RAL color code of the hull above the waterline?
Waiting for your feedback greetings

I believe JPcat, in Japan, used a Tamiya orange spray paint.
However, it was not very tolernent of UV in the sunlight and faded quickly.

Thanks Umi, I found a color chart R.A.L. and it seems that the most suitable color is red orange R.A.L. 2002. I go to the paint shop and I do a test sample.

Hello
Your tug looks great. Some thing I found . The hi ziz orange around the top of the wheel house. On my ferry it to has the same . I tryed Humbrol orange hi ziz ,what a disappointment,the paint was crap and so poor in pigment. I found a hi ziz paint made for bikes sold by Halfords had good coverage but in the end I use vinal

Hello everyone,
thanks john, I tried the red orange - R.A.L. 2002. It seems very similar to the real. For painting  the top of the wheelhouse, I will use the same color tried with the fairmount alpine (R.A.L. 2004)[/size][size=78%].   [/size]These are colors for body car painting , made on request and inserted in spray guns 400 ml.

I had a small problem with the paint. Orange reacted in places with white humbrol, although they are compatible (already experienced in the past):?:


I had to sand down and repaint in orange;)

Hello to all, tanks UMI.
Returning to the sensors speech, I mounted: 2 current sensors (one for each motor); 2 engines of temperature probes; 1 of the battery voltage sensor (short ride on the second). Everything seems to work properly. :or
Thanks to the wide range of radio programming, I set two special functions that can be activated by a switch on the remote control to perform the stationary rotation and gear behind automatically;);)

Hi everyone, here is the result of the experiment to achieve a ceiling light "neon".
I decided to use "heavy artillery" or micrometer drill to practice the slots that form the inside of the ceiling. To obtain more or less the same shape of the ceiling, I realized silhouettes of vinyl (blue film) that I applied on a PVC strip 2.8 mm thick. The ceiling of the milled slots (3 mm diameter), I cut with a band saw and finished with disc sander. I have practiced a lateral hole for the passage of wires that power the LED (1.2 mm). Always with the usual dime vinyl I clipped from plexyglas sp. 1 mm transparent caps of the last plafoniera.Per I applied strips of plasticard from 0.3 mm to simulate the attachment clips of the transparent cover to the fixture body.

Hello, I started the design and construction of the service crane for handling the tender. I do not have a picture of this crane. The only thing that I could find were a couple of pictures with two different perspectives of shooting. With the help of the computer I traced the lines with the profiles of the crane on the pictures and I managed more or less to obtain the shape and the size of the crane. At this point I climbed the design to make it consistent with the scale of the model. I exploded all the pieces of the crane, "taking it apart" piece by piece with CAD.


[size=78%](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UCrUEE3s8MI/VmF1hbGE3XI/AAAAAAAADzk/qI4RvkbTqI42aKrIlBaPa7S4ngdlk2xIQCCo/s635-Ic42/remorqueur-32248-3416679.jpg)[/size]

Got the design of the parts of the crane, I started the actual construction. I have depleted all the tools I possess (not essential, but certainly useful loooong time-saving)

Hello, in the few spare time that I have in this period, I have dedicated myself to the look of Salvador Dali. I prepared written with the name of the tug, all done with the plotter. For the removal of vinyl film, I used a sport-fishing gear, which contains a punch to untangle the knots of the line.

Hello, in the limited spare time that I have at this time, I am dedicated to the lighting of Dali.
I had already realized the ceiling lights and halogen spotlights. Now I realized the electronic circuit to the lighting of LEDs and associated wiring. I used the usual Stripboard by electronics and I soldered the wires of the negative pole and the positive pole. To the latter I have inserted for each LED, a 150 ohm resistor to lower the battery voltage (5V) to the rated value of the white LEDs (3V).

 With another circuit I give voltage to the LEDs of red and green navigation lights of the deckhouse and antenna. The Dali has the distinction of having navigation lights on the four sides of the main deck, having regard to its maneuverability at 360 °
