A bit on the prototype and model. In reality, such a ship was not built ever. This is one of concepts that developed F.Chapman on request the Swedish Government in 1765. He was given task to create an inexpensive heavy frigate, which would battle with the ship line, if necessary. Frigate had to meet the following specifications: Dimensions Length 145' 6'' (imperial) Breadth 38' Draught Aft 17' Height of middle gunport above the water 6' 4'' L/B ratio 3.83 Armament 26*18-pounders, 12*6-pounders At least a decade ahead of it?s time when Chapman made the plans for this ship (the first french and british 18-pounder frigates were launched in the late 1770s). The guns are mounted on sliding carriages to reduce the number of men needed to operate them. In future, based on this concept F.Chapman built a series of heavy frigates type Bellona The model is built on the scale of 1/48 . Style of model should simulate naturally aged model of 18th century

Next, I need to remove fragments of technological frames. I took a short video that showcases simplicity of this process http://sailmodel.ho.ua/present/09098288.MP4.mp4

Then I begin to create base hull. Pine strips are glued to frames using a stapler. Total of two layers. First layer must be dried at least one day. After drying, staples are removed and surface is processing with plane .

Next everything is done in wood. It looks simple enough but we are not trying to complicate things

Then I get shape of "thick" frames from 3D for the manufacture base hull. A detailed description of my technology manufacturing basic ship hulls can be seen here http://sailmodel.ho.ua/present/pres_e.htm

I use extensively in their work 3d-modeling and CNC, so I started by creating a 3D model of frigate. Using this model I check all structural elements and can get shape of frames and other parts

Hello everybody ! My favorite theme in modeling is Swedish shipbuilder F.Chapman and his ships. Previously, I have built a model of the Swedish privateer on Chapman's drawings from album «Architectura navalis mercatoria» (can see in the Gallery http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/gallery/album/208-swedish-privateer/) In 2011 I started to build another model of this album - a frigate (sheet XXXIII). This project was repeatedly interrupted, but I went back to building of model. I will show gradually all steps of building model. Baseline - Chapman's drawing. Analysis design of frigate has shown that this is an earlier and smaller version of the well-known series such as frigates Bellona (1782). Swedish Maritime Museum have excellent model Bellona 1/16. Photos of this model give additional information about the hull detailing and rigging.

Thank you uss frolick !

I did a lot of photos during work. 1st pfoto - test milling of pears 2nd photo shows error of combining parties in turn. I had to change machine coordinate search technique for more accurate processing 3rd photo - final figure after CNC

I finished production of Juno head figure for model Oliver Cromwell in scale of 1:48 from boxtree. Technological chain of next - 3D model, then CNC milling, then hand finishing. First time I tried 4-axis milling. It was harder than I thought, but I coped

Hello Vitaly ! Nice start !

Mike , most dust gives sander , so be sure to use a vacuum cleaner, it is recommended with control power (low power thrust is sufficient, but less noise). Moreover I recommend vacuum cleaner controller which automatically turns the vacuum cleaner together with your sander , for example PROXXON AS/E
