Corrado:
Hello Gentlemen,
I have decided to show my build of a Paddle Steamer.
It is based on a free plan of Soleil D'Or screw boat....with a difference.   I have chosen this plan because 1) It was free and 2) It's a very stable hull.
It is fairly large at 1200 mm in length..but this should give me lots of room to fit a steam plant. So here we go.....will take many months.
I already made the fibreglass female mould ..so let's take it from there.
Sorry for the image size...how do you resize?
Aahh found out how to resize images :)



 

Paddlemex:

That's a nice mould for the hull Corrado.
Why don't you show some pictures of how you made the plug and the mould.

DamienG:
I fully agree I'd love to see how the Hull mould was achieved.

Corrado:
Ok..I'll try to resize the images.
I have'nt got images of the original plug/mould process.
This is not the same plug...but  just showing my method.
You can use anything for the plug....but I still prefer the planking method followed by a good 2 pack primer.

Paddlemex:

Thanks Corrado,

You have a nice shop!!! :bravo

Jurgen
