I've lost track of my updates since some photos of mine are missing... =.= So, I'll just upload part by part. Up till now, I've basically done the forecastle fittings including the catheads.
Anyway, this is how I make my belfry. I used the beech woods for the bits that came with the kit and 2mm x 5mm walnut strip for the rail. To produce the bits, I mill them with a reverse milling bit to create the head, and then cut them into half.
I really don't like the color of the beech wood, but since I'm gonna paint them any wood will do.
For the crown on the belfry, I cut the original one into 5mm width to ease my work.
The rail..
For the headstock, I used the 6mm x 5mm walnut strip which is the same as the cat head.
And I added a copper piece on the head stock.
Install the bell and Done. ;)
Thanks for viewing :)
