1/700 Wild Goose' Masters are done. The underpinnings for the afterdeck put me in mind of 3D Printing. This part goes in a separate shallow, flexible mold to make it easier to remove the intricate, thin part. She had dual anchor winches up forward, but carried only 1 Danforth anchor. I made a 16' speedboat for her out of a 1/700 Chris Craft. It ain't too bad!
Her aft swim platform will be a p/e part.
Thanks fer (sigh)................lookin' in, Pilgrim.
Nice job Chris!

That is beautiful! The Duke would be proud!
I was just looking at the big one, you know the 1:350 one.

I cleared the newest molds after 12 hours. All 3 went pretty good, save the upgraded 1/700 SS Minnow. RTV stuck fast to the afterdeck under the overhang. A dousing in isopropyl should have released the RTV, buy didn't help. It did dissolve the Future holding the P/E parts to the Master. This Minnow is a total loss and headed for the burn trash.
NOT a big deal! Wild Goose' Masters emerged perfectly, as did the other 1/700 minutia in the molds. Tonight's first casting will prove the molds and then I get to build The Duke's boat!
AND! So do you guys!!
Thanks for looking in again!
