This middle Deck is now almost complete and now need to add the furniture.

 

I will add the scuppers holes and the holes for the Gunport lids ropes as I do deck by deck.

 

 

 

Thanks for looking in.

Hi Shipmates.

Thank you for the likes and comments.

Drilling holes for the rest of the treenails today. Wow that's some 800 per deck :)

The next deck is being milled and sorted into suitable timbers.

Apart from the spelling in my last post... The treenails are soaked in Colron wood dye (Jacobean dark oak)

Will add photo when I get back on the PC.

And the planking spelling should read " stood on edge"

 

Thanks for looking in.

Regards Antony.

Hello shipmates.

  Well its time for another small update.

 

Today while working on the topdeck I made a template for the hanging knees.

But to my horror I forgot to add then on the middle deck :(

post-2328-0-92638700-1395780428_thumb.jpg

 

So managed to cut them out and add them to the middle deck.

post-2328-0-30441300-1395780473_thumb.jpg

 

First time I have used super glue :) on a model ship.

post-2328-0-51562500-1395780528_thumb.jpg

 

And yes I did remember them on the Orlop Deck.

post-2328-0-93979300-1395780625_thumb.jpg

 

Also made up the racks.

Quarter deck Timbers made up and ready to install.

post-2328-0-35059500-1401990811_thumb.jpg

 

Not all the timbers are glued together yet as will do this on assembly.

post-2328-0-86937200-1401990812_thumb.jpg

 

Getting to the part where adding the outer planking after this deck is planked and furniture is added.

Then trimming the two end faces.

 

All the gun woodwork parts are made and I have decided to remake the barrels.

 

That's about it for now..

 

Regards Antony.

Hello Ship mates.

Thanks for your very nice remarks :)

And also for the likes.

A small update on the Quarter deck.

The Deck planked and ready to tree nail.

The copper wire is only for testing the jig for the bending. Will use brass for this.

post-2328-0-02305200-1402864681_thumb.jpg

 

Started on the deck furniture and will post a update when completed.

 

Thanks for looking in :)

Hi Shipmates.

Thanks for the comments and the likes.

Decided to try something new.. Cutting the outer planks some 48 each side of the hull.

 

Started by glueing the black card onto the face of the Cherry timber.

post-2328-0-47601900-1403636537_thumb.jpg

 

Timber now cut with the card already glued onto one edge ready to plank.

A close up of the result. :)

post-2328-0-58428500-1403636627_thumb.jpg

 

Found some moulding in my local dolls house. Quality is very good.

post-2328-0-21869500-1403636595_thumb.jpg

 

made up the decoration to match the mouldings.

post-2328-0-28719600-1403636548_thumb.jpg

 

Just adding a few bits to the quarter deck.

post-2328-0-39900300-1403636572_thumb.jpg

 

 

Made up most of the furniture for the quarterdeck.

Going to start planking the outer /lower hull this week.

 

Thanks for looking in.

Regards Antony.

I like that method of caulking.  It’s nice and crisp. I used it on my dragon deck.

Hello Shipmates.

A large update as I have had a lot of time building.

I made up some mesh for the hammocks my using some tights (fishnet) stretching them and then applying PVA glue until dry. The knit does not show when in place on the ship.

Have also faced off both ends of the ship (Fore and Aft ) makes it mush more pleasant to look at :)

 

Will cover the copper plates with a very thin film used to cover book covers. This will stop little fingers pulling off the copper plates.

 

Thanks for looking in.
