Hello.

Thanks Albert and Johann

 

No idea why the pictures are not in the right order.

 

Question to all: Does anyone know if the "Chebece" had ballast stones?

Logically, it would be because of the low draft and thus the risk of capsizing.

Boudriot shows nothing in his plans.

 

Thank you in advance.

 

Karl

Karl,

awesome work...  :)

beautiful casting of the tin gun barrels out of that heat resistant silicone mold, looking great !

How much weight does the complete set of guns bring to the deck ?

Hi Karl,

 

I have just been admiring your superb workmanship but one thing puzzles me. The large stern grating has the fore and aft planks raised higher than the thwartship planks. This seems to me to be rather dangerous and could cause a person to catch a foot in this gap and trip up (stolpern)

 

Then,I see in a later photo taken below the stern and notice that the grating planks appear to be flush with each other. No criticism meant, just an observation but I would have thought this should be the top side of the grating giving a level area to walk upon.

 

Kind regards,

Hi Dave,

Openings according to plan:  4,60 x 4,30 mm

Corresponds to the original:  16,5 x 15,50 cm

Stumbling was probably the slightest evil at this opening size.

Regards

Hi Nils.

Weight of a cannon barrel here ca. 40 gr.

Looks good Karl,

 

is this the ballast you`ve been talking of ? How was it prevented by the shipmates that the stones did`nt move to one side in heavy seas ?
