hello everyone I thought of the idea and it works great ! 1.make a photocopy of the bulkhead from the plans with the lines (of the center and WL) 2.now you need to paint the other side of the copy on the direction of the lines from the copy side by PENCIL 3.put the copy on the bulkhead with the lines outside and the pencil "paint" inside 4.Now take a ruler lay it on the line and just mark the line with a pencil 5.by doing step 4 when you marking the lines on the paper you also marking under the paper Because the other side "paint" by pencil best regards Michael. -

thank you Antony and Nigel Nigel its not going to help me .... like you Sade even the plans are not symmetrical for example frame 9 has 20 cm wide frame 10 has 19.8 wide and frame 11 has 20 cm wide so the solution is or to fill up frame 10 with 2 mm or to sand frames 9 and 11 and to be honest if one side will be a bit fat from the other side even with 3-4 mm of different no buddy can see that in our case that the frames has 20 cm wide my problem is only to make the frames level with the other frames at the same side then i will do the other side thank you Michael. -

Hi Antony thank you I have no problem with the keel Like i sade they dident cut properly the frames at the factory about your way to firing its nice i did the same with my first kit but now im working on a very large ship may be i need to Divide the ship to 3 sections and to work part part.... but im sure that there is a way to do it .. thank you Michael. -
hello i just start to work on the royal louis of mamoli and there is a lotttttt of problems with the frames... so i glue them on 90 deg but they Still uneven so far i got the deck leveled and 90 Degrees on the frame Against the kill now i got left(to make level )the Bottom and the sides of the frames (they dident cut the frames properly in the factory !!!!!!!!! ) for that i have to learn how to do the firing properly because i dont want to lose the forma of the ship i know that i will have to fill some frames also (because some of them they are out of the line and some of them not geting the line... ) i dont know where to start and where to finish ... so if you can Explain here in the forum or if you can give me a link for a tutorial i will be more than happy thank you, Micharl.

hello I have a few questions before I buy a table saw 1 . can i cut strips from sheets by Proxxon (fet) 2 . do i need to buy only mini saw for that work or maybe can i buy real table saw like bosch , makita , dewalt ect. i can't buy the byrnes table saw because I'm from israel and i tried lot of time to send email to hem but never received answer.... anyway in my country i can Choose between proxxon the fet model or to buy "real" table saw i mean the big one... By the way the price of the proxxon its expensive i can bay kind regards Michael.

Thank you all !! I love this forum !!!

Thank you for the answer But to be honest I don't want to use any kind of paper it's my first build and I'm working on that mor than one year and I never used other alternative than wood or metal So I don't want to start using that alternative in the last part of my model In the official pic of mamoli they post that pic http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/716Uq29HV4L._SL1196_.jpg And you can see that they used ropes on that part of wood the question is for what is used for , is it for making the wood stronger like the ropes on the masts or to making that heavier , and if it's for making that stronger I guess that it's ok to use rope like in the official model of mamoli Michael.
