Basically what I've done so far is chisel out the shapes that will make the 50" Ship.
Using various X-acto Knives's, Hammering out the shapes, and Sanding the edges.

I really enjoy model building, and I enjoy it more if it is built to scale and still is part of, or houses a computer. I have no idea where you are going with this, but I am intrigued already.

I am using a 50" Ship Model specifically for the Hull.
The Cabin area and Top section will be redesigned or modified.
I will use the Hull as a Mold for Fiberglass.
Yes, I plan to use it as a computer housing, and it is a scale model.

Got everything lined up and glued.
Now I have to sand off the excess glue. .
I need to find a better applicator to avoid this problem
. . before I begin work on the Hull.

I'm very curious to see how this will look, as a future naval architect (about to go back for my 2nd semester) I seriously love ships.

Sanded down the excess glue and framed the hull.

You've certainly gone off the deep end...and I do mean that in a good way!

Been a little busy lately though I did decide to complete the hull for the most part.
You can see the areas there on the side where I have removed the rectangular dowels,
didn't quite measure them out right with the curve and all. . so I must buy more
from somewhere. . or another.

Doing a little work on the front end.
I couldn't find any rectangular dowels here locally
so I will just use the excess wood I saved for the sides.
