Thanks for the kind words.

 

It continues with the construction of the steering gear.
The previous version was also not satisfactory.

Here I show the trial assembly. Only when it can be ensured that everything fits, then the steering gear comes on the ship model.

Seeing them side by side you can clearly spot the differences and improvements, but I bet there will still be a list of people queuing up on this site to take your reject off your hands.

Finished builds are 

1/35 Endeavour's Longboat by Artesania Latina

1/36 scratch built Philadelphia Gunboat from the Smithsonian Plans

 

Current build is

Scratch build Boudroit's Monograph for La Jacinthe at 1/36

I can hardly see the difference, Johann ;)

 

I wish I could be able to do the one on the left, the right hand side is out of my league ... you do have improved tremendously over the years with your brass prowess. I hope, you will not be looking for much more replacements for previously made parts !? In the end you might not be able to finish the model caused by "never ending redo's"

Hello Carl,

do not worry, I will focus on the last parts of the model now. Then I do the rigging.
I also want to build another model in this life ...

I don't mind, I can enjoy all those improved parts. As for the other model ... I will definitely follow your steps again ... I won't ask what build, others will do that for me

Hello,
after a short break, the report continues again.
First of all, I would like to thank you for the nice comments and the many LIKES.
Today I'll show you how to make the ninepin blocks. These are located behind the foremast and the mainmast.
These are single and double blocks, which are guided on an iron bar.
The fittings I manufacture from brass strips with a width of 0.8 mm.

Johan,

 

Each time you make a new part it seems to be better than all the previous parts. You have done it again, another exceptional, and beautful piece of mastercraft and artistry

Hello

Albert, Carl, Nils, Paul, Micheal,
thank you for always checking my report, and
all others for the LIKES too.
The guide blocks are now on the model at the place at the main mast and the foremast.
Here are a few pictures.
Before I work on the standing rigging, I have to make a few blocks for the backstays. These are fixed on the channels.
