In Eastern philosophy, the ship is a symbol of abundance and well-being. And small shipmen are an indispensable attribute of each house. Why don't you get such an accessory that brings good luck and make it with your own hands? Here are the ideas of how to make a ship with your own hands from various materials.
Ancient ship
It will take about a week for creating such a ship, most of the time will take drying of glue. The vessel model is best to do from plywood, the cork tree is also suitable.
You can use a conventional sharp knife for cutting out of a cork tree, but plywood will require special tools - saws for trimming.
We will also need:
- carpentry glue;
- paper;
- epoxy resin;
- pencil;
- wood varnish;
- drill;
- Thin bamboo strips, rattan or other wood.
First you need to prepare a drawing of the future ship on paper. It can be drawn independently or use the finished pattern.
Here is the case of a template:
Transfer all drawings on the paneur or cork tree and carefully cut the items.
First of all, it is necessary to collect the skeleton of the vessel. It is important that all edges are symmetrical. Fastening edges should be at an angle of 90 degrees. As you read, we put a special varnish for wood on the details.
Next, proceed to the formation of lateral parts. To do this, in the center it is necessary to glue a long rail. Put the subsequent rails, focusing on the first. Fix the rails is better than gradually. Fix them with clamps until the glue is completely drying. Clauses between the rails are treated with epoxy resin.
Go to the finish. If there are noticeable defects on the product, gently glue over the rail.
The base of the ship is ready, then we make two masts of wooden rods (pre-tight them under the necessary dimensions) and small flat pieces of wood (4 × 2 cm size). In the wood pieces, drill holes for the rods. Make a strengthening grille from small rods and assemble the mast design.

Go to the creation of the deck. To begin with, make a paper template, on the basis of which building a deck from wooden board. Connect all parts with glue and give the design to dry carefully.
In the deck, do a drill hole for mounting the mast. Stick mast to deck. Then build the side handrails of the ship from plywood.
Next, you need to connect wooden strips with the front and rear parts of the ship. They are glued side, and rods and handrails are cut out of plywood.
At the final stage, it is necessary to collect all parts of the vessel. Next you can add your ship with your favorite details, it's already a fantasy.
That's all, the ship is ready, you can put it on the raid.
Several video lessons that will help make crafts from different materials.
Masterpiece of dough
For a picture of a salt dough, a piece of plywood is needed, which is sketched of the future drawing.
Next, on top of the sketch of the bed, the food film or the sleeve for baking, and from above, roll the dough and cut the detail of the sailboat along the contour. Start from its foundation. With the help of a stupid side of the pencil, you can make holes for the windows.
Further go to the sails. Cut from the dough every mast and put the toothpick for each. Using a knife neatly do accommodation.
From a very subtle reservoir of the test you can make waves and clouds.
When the sketch of the picture is ready, let him dry well. It is best to leave for the night.
When the dough is driving, you can start painting. Watercolor paint is suitable for this.
For staining the background (plywood sheet) it is better to use acrylic paint.
After the paint dries, you need to transfer the ship to the base and secure with glue. Start with the waves. Then go to the base of the ship, its sails and, finally, the clouds.

Origami technique
The easiest way to make a boat is to perform it from paper. To do this, you will need a sheet of A4 format, a little time and patience.
First, bend the sheet in half the paper across the paper. Then at the same time, replace the upper corners to the center at an angle of 90 degrees. Next, check the bottom corners of the paper. Corners that were formed at the edges, beaten in the opposite direction. After taking the layout of my boat behind the corners and connect them together. You will have a square with a pocket. The free edge of the pocket is lowered up from each side, as a result, a triangle is formed. Now you need to connect the corners by making a square from your billet. Holding the middle, pull the corners up. That's all, the boat from paper is ready!
