Hei Roy! Hy all!
>>> First of all, bravo to the great boats! I've just been amazed lately . . .👍👍👍
@ Roy:
Clear answers to crazy questions! It was similar for me . .
“Do you trust your grandchildren to do this?”
“ Crash or no crash, they have to learn at some point! ”
That day, it was exactly this older member who asked me this question . . and unfortunately had a little “bang”!
What's the saying? Mop your own front door first . . .
I would like to say that my grandchildren are more careful than your grandpa.
And why is that? Because they know how else they can annoy the ‘old man’ 🤣🤣.
Your Michel-C.

Hello Garth, Chugalone and JumpUgly!
What beautiful specimens you have in your harbour, JumpUgly !?!?
But what on earth is the twin brother of my crab doing in your harbour?

Hello you sky painters,
Thank you for the good input . . Let's see if this is available here again.
I paint with Renovo lacquer colours and acrylic lacquer, finally I apply either a clear or matt lacquer. .
Some do it this way, others do it differently . . 😊😊😊😊

Hello O-Dave,!
I was in the cool cellar again and inspected my parts in the box. I knew I still had parts like that after the last tidy-up!
But sometimes you store things too well that you have to look for them. . .
Simply too much material, but if you don't put it aside, you'll be annoyed that you no longer have it! Have we modellers now become messies? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
🤣🤣🤣 I love my organised mess! 🤣🤣🤣
OMG!!! 🙈🙈🙈

Hello Phil,
I see that the slightly older generation is also really active here. It's exactly the same with us.
Unfortunately, ‘Gen Z’ is more active with Tiktok.
We try to attract grandchildren and young people who are interested. Last year, I made a bottle boat with my grandchildren on a camping trip and they really enjoyed it.
Finding an incentive in today's media world is a problem that other sectors also have to contend with.
I myself have two kids from the neighbourhood under my wing who turn up at my place every free Wednesday afternoon to do handicrafts. Young people today are very fidgety and restless, which means that model shipbuilding can only be developed with calm and patience. And you also need nerves of steel. . .
You see, we also try everything possible!
Your Michel-C.
Ps: Swiss German is spoken on the video, similar to Dutch . . or?? 😉😉😉

Hello Rogal,
It's always nice to see that the personal touch is added to the existing plans with small changes. This gives the finished boat its personal look (see the cutter “Aline” in my harbor). Self-built boats are even more special, but let's not get carried away, shall we?
Good craftsmanship,
Your landlubber 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Hello everyone!
When tinkering, we sometimes lack various smaller staples. Someone has given me an idea with clothespins here on this website or via PM, and I would like to share it with those of you who don't know it.
If someone has an even better idea, let me know! 👍👍👍👍
I'm really looking forward to your feedback!
Total hobbyist greetings from cold central Switzerland . . . 😊😊😊

Grazie Alessandro,
As far as your question is concerned, instead of the familiar cross-flow control system, there are now cross-flow pumps.
As I had no way of retrofitting them to the finished hull, I had to find another solution.
The hull is so badly glued at the bow that I had to find something else, for better or worse.
Here is a diagram of the principle of my two pumps.
They are slightly offset to the rear to distribute the weight, as I want to install my two “Denes” steam generators at the front. And there is still space for the noise box at the very front.
I'm testing all the electrics and need some time to do this.
See you guys in a few days, let me work! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
(unless my wife wants something from me, so she has to paint me parts. So I can find a few hours to do handicrafts . .)🤣🤣🤣🤣
See you soon,
Michel-C.

Hi JB!
At first I thought you had also stolen your wife's sewing machine thread reels. But apparently they look like old power insulators from earlier times! Why didn't I think of that? Wouldn't have experienced a difference of opinion . . .
🙈🙈🙈🙈
But honestly, your idea is awesome, because my Optimist sailboat is waiting to be revitalised.

Hello Roy, Hello all!
It wasn't a stray, but my friend's clever dog. The older they get, the stranger methods they develop, such as pushing the door latch down with their snout!
Now everything is clear, he caught him doing it at home.
Now for a brief explanation. . .
The rear wheel is coming, now it's time to paint and assemble it. . Between the glue drying times I work on other details in parallel .
In addition to the housework, I always find time to devote to the boat. My goal is the maiden voyage of the “Dolores” in the middle of the year
Keep your fingers crossed for me, thank you

Hello JumpUgly!
I have exactly the same experience with 2mm thick plywood parts (railings). I stole my wife's kettle to steam the parts to make them bendable.
Had to use the milk jug to keep them in shape. .
It had exactly the right diameter.
After painting, I had to steam them again and steal the milk jug again under my wife's protest...
I had my hair cut into a brush cut so I wouldn't get a parting from the rolling pin.... 🤣🤣🤣
In the meantime, peace has returned.

Hello friends,
I have decided to make the whole paddle wheel out of wood. At the moment my laser is working at full speed, he has complained to me that he hates slave labour! He was allowed to sleep in today and now he's full of vigour cutting!
Most of the work was CAD drawing, but I'm making good progress.
With the 3D plastic we only had the option of working with normal plastic, as Chuck mentioned to me.
Well, the first parts look reasonable.
Then comes the gluing of two parts. Here I make sure that the grain of the wood is offset by 90 degrees to prevent warping.
Then comes the colour, then the protective coating. . .
Work for my painting department . .
Keep your fingers crossed that everything works out. I can't, otherwise I wouldn't be able to work!
Greetings Michel-C.

Hello Chuck!
You have just given me an improvement to my rear wheel. I have used 3D elements so far, but I think that treated wood is much better than the 3D plastic. Over time it becomes brittle and warps, which is not the purpose.
Thanks Chuck, best wishes
Michel-C.
PS: How exactly is your rear wheel constructed?

Yes, JumpUgly!
As mentioned above, it was actually a half-finished product from an estate and is sold by the Alexander Engel KG factory. I combed through many pictures, collected ideas, noted them down and drew them myself on CAD 14 (2D) to then create them with the laser cutter. The plans were only partly correct, the rest of the ideas came with the construction of my wife and me. (MCM-Home-Werft) Let us surprise you!

Hello and happy New Year estimated Jumpugly!
Honestly . . I think this ‘picture’ is very special, so you shouldn't add any more details.
This would spoil this unique design, because then the sail boom would also have to be
be mounted.
My own opinion:
I find this picture ‘Jumpugly Like’ !!! 👍🤣👍🤣👌👌👌

Ps: I've only just discovered that there are a few aeroplanes hanging on the floorboard and wall in the background. I received a half-finished Bleriot for my 77th birthday. . I wonder if it will ever fly? I still have a lot of ship's bodies in the cellar ... 🙈🙈🙈

He has already answered most of the questions I would have had, but
wonder which engine types he used, and from which car model he used them.
he ‘stole’ them from? Surely someone is driving around without windscreen wipers now? . And in this weather! 🤣🤣🤣

All respect, beautiful model! But what really caught my eye was your drive.
Can you tell me more about it or give me some tips please?
As I am working on a stern wheel steamer, I would prefer this drive. My gear drive is a bit too unreliable. .
By the way, a happy new year 2025 to you too, best hobbyist wishes from central Switzerland

Ps: First the old very loud version, the new one with integrated gearbox

Hello Doogle,
With these pictures you reminded me that there are still some boats in my cellar waiting to be resurrected. . As my sons are more into motorbikes and cars, something like yours can't happen to me!
But Grandpa Michel-C. is in full swing and is working on his paddle steamer!
Good restoration, hope your stepson will appreciate it too. 😊😊😊
