Duke William A Kammerlander Kit
-
Interestingly the completed grating next to the Captain’s quarters are not included in the kit. It’s just an open space on the deck. Caldercraft includes the other four gratings. In the kit, there’s just an open space. According to the.AOS Diana there is a grating and a ladder way there which I added. All the best, Mort

Guns glued and rigged. Am now working on the gratings and ladders.

Could one have been solely for the Captain and the other for the officers?
-
Well done sailor, well done.

I found the kit rigging plans easy to follow and also found the Longridge “Anatomy of Nelson’s Ships” to be a tremendous resource.

Definitely worth the wait. The tops, ratlines, shrouds and netting, she’s looking great. Welcome home sailor, welcome home. Mort

All the best my friend, all the best.

Thank you very much for the likes. I really appreciate them.

Stern and quarter galleries complete. Not my best work but with the hand tremors it’s the best I can do. Am now working on the bow head rails.

Very sorry to hear about your loss. My sincere condolences.

Captain’s dining cabin has 3 side tables for beverage bottles, a box for supplies and a side serving table. Great cabin has a desk, for the Captain and one each for his clerk and the master. In addition there are 2 clothes trunks and chests of drawers. Want to thank everyone for their like’s.

Captain’s quarters are complete. Am not that happy with the results as I’m having age related issues with my hands.

Started working on the 18# gun carrages.

The modeler had also finished and painted both quarter galleries to which I added doors to the great cabin, a commode and hanging lanterns. For the great cabin I made doors to each quarter gallery, a desk for the Captain, 2 smaller ones for his clerk and secretary, 2 chests and trunks for his clothes and a large bench seat with storage drawers at the stern. For the sleeping cabin - which you can see dry fitted - ( please ignore the as yet to be painted guns - there’s a hanging bed, a washing/shaving table and 2 clothes trunks.

As such I removed the stern gallery taft rail and facia, the quarter deck beams the last 2 bulkheads #’s 16 and 17, the 2 gundeck extensions #24 and the 4 stern counter patterns #’s 26 and 27. With the help of the AOS Diana I was able to estimate the limits of the Captain’s area and removed any gun deck planks there in as I was going to substitute a parquet floor.
