DIY Display Case for Pinky Schooner - (Part 1)

#olhabatchvarov #shipmodeling
⚓️ Where to buy this KIT: amzn.to/3AvHpGV
The most important thing for the preservation of the model is a glass housing for its permanent residence: a DISPLAY CASE. It should compliment the model - be like an extension of it, like a frame for a painting. At the same time it ought not clamp the ship and draw the attention away from it. The most important function of the DISPLAY CASE, however, is to protect the model from dust and changes in humidity.
I offer you MY VERSION OF MAKING A DISPLAY CASE from ready-made maple and pine wood blanks, which can be purchased at any hardware store:

Just want to thank you for this series. I was ready to shelve my Pinky. Frustration set in. And you work so quickly in the video's. LOL

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

You're welcome! Maybe now you, too, build Pinky?

[@richmeklosky6352]

If I had 1/4 your skills, that would be a yes. LOL Thanks.@@OlhaBatchvarov

[@denisv4385]

A display case of incredible elegance. Even more beautiful than those sold commercially. The ship appears to be on rough seas. Thanks so much for sharing.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much! I really imitated waves! ..

[@DARIVSARCHITECTVS]

This is going to look spectacular when lit from underneath!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I will add light later. Now I want to close the model from dust as soon as possible.

[@DARIVSARCHITECTVS]

@@OlhaBatchvarov I just finished La Couronne last week and it's under glass. Moving on to HMS Sovereign of the Seas.

[@michaelwilkinson2928]

Very effective. I always mount my models on pedestals over a mirror so as to display the planking under the hull.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

That's a very good idea! Maybe I'll use it when I make a display case for my French cutter to show its clinker planking on the bottom...

[@robertsalanon2909]

That· s perfect ! Congratulations ...

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you!

[@gregherbert6089]

Lovely display for a beautiful model. I might even prefer it without the wooden base between the model and the "ocean"

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you. I also thought about doing it without a wooden stand, but otherwise I could not find a way to raise the model above.

[@CaptRD]

I loved the choice and use of the wall paper, it was very fitting for a ship model. Your base was so beautiful I would have been very tempted to stain the wood, but I could see why you chose to paint it to enhance the wall paper base.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you! In general, I decided to paint in white because the model is on a white console table in a room with white furniture...

[@clickhikes]

Beautiful work, can’t wait to see what you build next!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much! I hope you like my next project too!

[@jasonguttman548]

Beautiful base. I love it........ 😷. 👍. ❤️. 👏. (-; Have a great week end....

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank You very much!

[@m6087]

I will follow this with particular interest. I still think I will learn a lot.Thank you.

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

You're welcome. I will try not to disappoint you!

[@m6087]

@@OlhaBatchvarov Be completely reassured, I am absolutely a fan of your work and your universe

[@michaelellison1727]

Hi Olha - great video! Are you going to do Part 2? I'd really love to see how you construct the top part of the case. Thanks for all your great videos!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you! Yes, in the second part there will be a glass "aquarium" for which I still can't buy glass...

[@1BatJam]

Ohla terribly sorry but I'm looking all over for the Part 2 of the display case that you made for the Pinky schooner could you post the link in the comments to parts 2, Love your channel thank you!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much! The second part does not exist, I still haven't bought the glass for the showcase. This is a real problem and not only in the cost, but also in the fact that I do not have a driver's license. For 2 years now, I have been asking my husband to go to a special store for thin glass (2-2,5 mm), specifically glass, not plexiglass!

[@igormanuilovich1422]

Ну.... здорово! Благодарю

[@Matthew-sr1du]

Bello davvero, mi hai dato delle ottime idee...

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@Asahiart]

need to do my base too ... i bought a wood plancha at a dollarstore that i will customize , not as classy as yours lol , my ship is overall a dollarstore edition but i am having fun . :D

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Oh, this is the most boring part of the job - but very important for the model ...

[@maxpower9835]

Very informative video, thanks. Was looking for a case building ideas for my Brig Phoenix. Wondering do you have a video showing how to make actual case, maybe out of plexiglass or glass?

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Not yet! But this will be the second part of this series - I'm just saving money for thin glass...

[@phylomeno1]

Greetings! As usual, your videos are excellent. By chance, you made the sequence of assembling the display case? Thank you!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank you very much! I will make the next part of the display case as soon as my husband buys me glass or I finally save the necessary amount of money! I have already bought wood for this and now I have to buy the most expensive part of it))) I use thin glass (not plastic because it eventually gets scratched and faded) which is usually sold in workshops for making picture frames - it is almost invisible and not flashes ...

[@carlosbarbieri4192]

Muy bueno desde Argentina

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Gracias!

[@diyhometheaterguy]

Very nice display. I was wondering how do you clean your models? Keep dust and such off? Canned air or something like that? Anyway, another fantastic video!

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Thank You very much!

[@kikkerbare]

Nice work ❤️ is there a part 2? 🍀⛵️

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I'm working on it! I am looking for and buying the necessary materials to complete the display case!

[@NoName-yw5rt]

This was made from router

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

I bought planks ready-made from the hardware store.

[@АндрейПогарняк-щ7э]

Вот и книги пригодились...

[@OlhaBatchvarov]

Ну это то что самое тяжёлое оказалось под рукой)))
