Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
Long time ago I’ve found a picture from a historical blacksmith in the internet, I liked the building immediately. Now it should become a model house for our battle ground.
The building receives inside a frame from 10 mm square bars; the walls has been manufactured from Styrodur-plates. I’ve started with the frames.
The frame shows already the size, not a little hut; the footprint is approximately 75 x 40 cm.
As usual has the frame received pins for a better stability.
Thereafter has been the single parts for the roof produced; with a high probability will be the roof covered with roofing felt again.
Each roof binder has been received a stand…
One part is finished, the other follows soon.
In the next part it goes on at the blacksmith…

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
The framework has been covered with the wall plates; used were again Jackodur-plates which have been cut and mounted to the frame.
One roof binder has been tentatively at the gable end mounted.
Thereafter were the wall plates again dismounted and cut as drawn with a cutter knife.
Many bows in the openings make the cut a bit difficult; the rework should be so little as possible.
The first both window openings are finished.
The other openings follow piece for piece…
The purple gable wall receive no opening,…
…the opposite gable wall two.
The front side receive additional to the windows an opening for a big door.
All wall plates are now prepared, at the framework it goes on.
This then next time.

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
At the framework it goes on. For that must all wall plates again dismounted.
All of these plates receive a little cut at the position, were later the binder crosses the walls.
Thereafter has been the lintel with two head bars forced.
Then has been the binders mounted; the ridge beam is only temporary and has been later dismounted. A view to the whole thing…
The distances between the binders are not equal, I am followed simply the positions of the stands of the timbering.
Because no ridge beam has been used, I’ve glued the first boards of the roof boarding.
Otherwise will the roof stay open until the work progress is so far finished.
Thats all for today; next time it goes on at the blacksmiths…

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
In the middle of the building was it at both long walls with additional bars forced.
View from outside through the door to this enforcement…
Thereafter I've mounted the wall plates finally. At each corner has been reinforcement stripes used. Thereby I want to prevent, that my wall plaster receives fissures.
Then I've concern to the window construction. The inner part consists again from milled polystyrene plates. The frame is again made from little wooden bars; for that receive they a groove and a mitred.
The upper end was easy made at this time; I've have cut round bows from plywood.
Now could the mounting start; from three sides has been the polystyrene plates plugged into the frames and glued. Pictures…
Thereafter has been the round bows glued from top between both side parts.
After drying has been the frame side parts length adjusted to the round bow.
Thereafter could the first windows insert; first at the gable. Pictures…
So gradually has been the hall with the windows completed. Again pictures…
Next time will be continued at the doorway…

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
Before it goes on, again a word to the windows. These has been brushed with primer from Tamiya out of the can...
…and thereafter in a dark grey with my airbrush brushed.
Now to the gate, this shall receive two wings, for the construction has been used wooden tongue depressors.
The actual structure of the gate has been constructed from wooden coffee stirrers. These have been on both door wings around 90 degrees turned glued.
Each door wing receive two door hinges;…
…constructed from copper sheet stripes 8 x 0,8 mm. These have been cut to length, bent and welded.
With the door wings it goes on; each receives outside two bars, where the hinges have been mounted.
For the gate wings mount I've glued at each gate post inside a wooden additional bar.
Old furniture eccentrics has been adjusted and used as admission for the gate wings. Off with the head,…
…a hole drilled into it, a thread cut and an eye screw screwed. To completion is missing a piece; for that receive this part later still a bolt from brass.
Four of these parts have been needed. These have been leaded from outside through the Styrodur against the wooden square bar and there with a screw hold.
Further in the next part.

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
It goes on at the gate; both wings were finished and for a trial at the building fixed.
Previously receive each wing his reinforcements…
Thereafter have been the hinges and the gate wings mounted.
Followed from the mounting of the windows; these were so inserted, that they are flush with the walls inside.
From outside were the soffit filled with dispersion adhesive and reinforced.
Thereafter have been all wall plates receives a coat with dispersion adhesive; the styrofoam receive for that a hard surface.
The walls inside the house receive also a coat with adhesive, so that the structure looks like a real plaster.
After drying receive the building a first coat from outside in a thinned white acrylic colour.
Further next time…

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
I trust that this one has local council planning permits & building consent Mr Hotte !!
Your buildings are so well made Im surprised you dont get people expecting plumbing & heating in them

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
A planning permit? For sure...
A real look like? I think that's the reason for our effort - no matter where each is working on it...

Re: Hoof and carriage blacksmiths
The hoof blacksmiths should not stay white and that’s why I’ve painted she with a light ochre acrylic paint.
At the gate wings it goes on; these had to conserved also and especially the hinges needs colour.
The gate wings receive again a paint with root tar.
Looks after drying so.
The hinges were brushed in a dark grey…
…and again mounted.
After that, they were mounted at my building.
The plastered walls inside my building should not stay in this grey colour,…
…they receive a coat with white acrylic paint.
That's the state of the blacksmiths currently.
Further again in the next part.
