Marking the End of the Boat and the Tip of the Second Floor
From the bottem of the hull, mark a line 4 cm bellow (line c)
From line (c), draw another line 1cm bellow it, (line d)
Ater this, repeat step 1, from the center of line (c), draw 2 lines that match to the corners of line (d), making a triangle.
Making the Hull
From the hull, draw a line 1cm down from the top of the wood and match it up with the corners of the lines marking the hull (see picture for better understanding)
Making Hull 2.0
- Mark 5 lines across the boat, evenly spread out
- use a saw to cut through each line
- Chisel the pieces away
Making Hole for Pipe
Drill a hole 1cm deep in the center of the second floor part (end of piece of wood) Make sure the hole is the same size as the wooden cylinder.
Cutting the Points
- Cut off the front of the boat tips as shown in the picture,
- Then, cut off the second floor part
- cut off the tip of the second floor
Glue It Up
Glue the wooden cylinder into the drill hole with wood glue, then glue on the second floor of the ship on-top of the boat wherever you want. Let it dry for a few hours or a day
Final Touches, Sanding!
First, erase the pencil lines to the best of you're ability, then sand the boat everywhere!!! sand off the remaining marks.
MAKE EVERYTHING SMOOTH!!!
sand down areas where wood glue "escaped"
