Model Shipways Kit No. 2003 INSTRUCTION MANUAL Manufactured by Model Shipways, Inc. • Hollywood, Florida Sold by Model Expo, a division of Model Shipways, Inc.
HISTOR Y 2 HISTOR Y During the 19th Century , many Baltimor e Clippers were granted privateering licenses b y the US Gov ernment. Since all commerce was subject to the legalized banditry of privateers, only a fast, well handled ship could be reasonably sur e of reaching its destination.
3 Befor e Y ou Begin The Dapper T om is an inter esting model for beginner and expert alike. This kit contains a solid hull which has been machine-car ved from select, medium-hard, fine-grained bass- wood. This style hull provides a quick and easy lesson in the basic shapes and pr opor- tions of hull design and helps to develop woodwor king skills.
4 P ainting and S taining It may seem strange to begin an instruction manual with directions for applying the fin- ishes to the model. N ot so! M uch time and effor t can be saved and a more professional result can be obtained if the finishing process is carried out during construction.
5 2. Carving the Hull Cut a wooden block from scrap to about 3” x 1” x 3/4” thick. Scr ew the block to the deck so the model can be held in a bench vise for carving. First, check the accuracy of the profile and correct it as necessary , using a long sanding block (F igure A-2).
6 1. Installing the Keel, S tem & S ternpost The keel, stem & sternpost ar e laser-cut par ts. T aper the stem and install the parts (F igure B-1). N ote that the hull plan shows a scarf joint between the keel and stem with a step in the middle of the joint.
7 could also install a waterway without cutting the nibs. Another way , the scored decking could go into the bulwar k, and a thin water- way glued on top of the decking. 6. Cr eating the Ladder W ay Hole The ladder way sho wn on the plan indicates an open hatch with a ladder .
8 ST A GE D: ADDING THE HULL DET AILS 1. General N otes Don ’ t forget to file off any flash on Britannia metal fittings, clean the fittings and then prime them with gr ey primer before final paint. Locate deck fittings and place them into position.
9 Install the cavils, cut from stripwood, acr oss the bulwark stanchions in locations shown on the plans (F igure D-4). The gunport lids are Britannia castings.
Most r eferences call a mast a mast, and anything else such as a boom, yard, gaff , and bowsprit a spar . Let’ s stick with that definition. There are two mast assemblies for the D apper To m . They are a foremast & main mast. The foremast is built up in three sections: lo wer mast, topmast, & topgallant mast.
11 stay and the jibsail halliard. The port side block is not used or is for other lines not rigged on this model. F igure E-4 illustrates the mast details. Main Boom Rest - The main mast has a rest for the boom. The rest is a laser cut part but requires support chocks cut from stripwood (F igure E-5).
12 drilled into the hull. It is suggested that y ou do not glue the masts and bowsprit into the holes. The rigging will hold them in position. Furthermor e, if the model gets restored in the futur e, the masts and bowsprits can be easily remo ved. Check the alignment of the masts and bo wsprit.

15 lant shrouds have no deadeyes or ratlines. The shrouds pass through the crosstr ees and seize to the topmast shrouds. 3. F oremast (Head) S tays F orestay -The for estay (9) sets up to a closed and open heart and collar at the bowsprit. The closed heart shown on the plan appears rather large for this ship.
16 is a pair , passing on each side of the for emast and setting up port and star- board with lanyar ds to the ey ebolts shown on the deck plan just forward of the foremast fife rail. The stay eye would be fitted with a metal thimble (F ig- ur e G-9).
17 Before starting on the running rigging, have all your blocks stropped and/or seized to a line as much as possible. S ome running lines may pass thr ough a sheave hole, they requir e a block.
18 3. T opsail Y ards The jackstays, footropes & stirrups, lifts and brace blocks are essentially the same as for the lo wer yar ds. Clew Lines and S heets - The clew lines (29) are just like the low er yard clew garnets, just a different name. There are no tacks.
19 The vangs (43) are fitted port and starboard. The plan does not clearly show where the fix ed end of the fall is located. Seiz e it to an eyebolt in the deck close to the bulwark or on top of the cap rail directly in line with the line on the plan.
