    Hi Remco,
    thanks for your nice comments.
    Here I want to show you the basics for the construction of the two boats.
    Compared to the original model of the boats from the Musée national de la Marine there are
    various deviations from the plan of J. Boudriot and drawings from the Atlas du Genie Maritime.
    As a result of my review of these documents, I choose therefore the construction of the cutter is substantially based on the drawings from the Atlas du Génie Maritime and J. Boudriot.

     

     
    That's the theory; soon it then continues with images of the model practice ...

    Hello,
    I am happy for the positive feedback, thank you for it.   The attachment of the mast clamps was to be clarified.
    After searching the internet I have at various
    Models seen this solution. I think that this hook bolt
    represent a practical solution.
    For this my drawing:

    Hello,
    Thanks for the positive feedback.
    For the preparation of supports for the thwarts, I made a template out of a small brass tube.
    This solution I've seen here in the forum at Remco's building report.
    This works very well.
    Thanks to Remco!


    A further thwart is installed.

    Hello,
    thanks for the nice notes. It is a pleasure again.
    In the following I will show the next steps to build a pinnace.
    First, the gunwales are attached to the framework. Next, the keel planks are fastened.
    The last picture shows a size comparison between chaloupe and pinnace.

    Hello,
     
    thanks for the nice comments and likes.
     
    After the completion of chaloupe, I prepare the next boat project - Grand Canot -.
    Therefore, I compare the documents available to me.
    -J. Boudriot
    -Atlas Du Génie maritime
    -Photos From Paris Original Model
    The thwart with mast holder in the bow area is further forward.
    Therefore there are 7 instead of 6 thwarts.
    I think that the basis for the construction of the "Grand Canot" are acceptable.

    Hello,
    so it goes on with the construction report.
    To stow the sloop on the deck, I have to build the poultry houses. These lie between the gratings.
    For construction of the poultry houses, I show you the following pictures.
    I hope you enjoy the pictures.

    Thank you,   that comments are nice and motivating  
    For the French corvette I had the gratings already made.
    But because the holes were too big, I decided to make them new.
     

     

     
    Here is a comparison between the old and the new.

    Hello there,
    thanks for the nice comments. That makes me happy.
    Original the tholes were made of wrought iron. For the model
    I made this in brass.
    The last picture shows the sloop in its future position.

    Hello,
    Carl and Greg,
    Here are the next attempts .... :D

    The nailing I made with holes diameter 0.5 mm. The filling is made of furniture wax.


    Before I put the parts in the sloop I have it coated with "Ballenmattierung".
