Many thanks for all your kind words
Frist I had some problems to make the bricks. I tryed to model they from wood, but that looks like firewood for the fireplace. At last I remembered a forgotten box with restovers from railway modelling long time ago. And in it I found three varietys of brickwall paper. Exactly what I was looking for.
And this is the coloured fireplace. I did use Oxid of Chromium (green) Raw Sienna and Van Dyk Brown. As a friend of mine ( his is an restorer himself) says are this colours which are used for such decorations in the baroque.

Angarfather reacted to Piet in Surabaya by Piet - 1/80 - Mid 17th-Century VOC ship
Today was rather productive, albeit short. I didn't get to the shipyard till around ten a m but soldered the second anchor together. Then it was cleaning them and roughly polishing them. I don't want them to appear as jewelry, leaving them a little rustic like the ship is, a good match.
Next step was installing the stock. I put a small dab of CA at the center anchoring bolt and then some PVA at the ends of the stock.
Next I made the rings for the anchor cable. This posed a slight problem because the shank in square and I had to make the ring with a flat part that goes through the shank. It was a little tricky getting the ring to look like a ring yet also let it rotate in the shank. Next problem was soldering the ends together in such a way to make it look like a forged ring. I don't know if anyone on the forum ever have welded iron rings like chain links, in a black smithy or forge fire. Very tricky - yes I have. In any case this reminded me of that process. I filed both ends to a taper so that when thy are soldered together they should look like one piece. Perhaps I'm making it a lot more difficult then need be, again not really knowing how they did it in 1665. It turned out acceptable to me and if it's not the way it should be Jan will most certainly let me know. One more thing I need to look at using the URL Jan gave me.
\I normally don't start with MSW till late in the evening, sorry Jan for not yet getting to look at the model in the Rijksmuseum. Tomorrow for sure, before I do anything else.
After lunch I cleaned up and started making the bands for around the stock. I made three that are actually ready to be put on and the ends soldered. Then it was time to close shop. I cancelled the order for the iron bands
Tomorrow we'll make the bolts for the stock and finish the anchors. There is still a smaller anchor I want to make. We'll see - the 3.2 mm brass bar is a little to hefty for the smaller anchor and ordering a smaller bar at the total cost of $12.00 is a little much at tgis stage - - unless I hand machine these down.
Here I am in the process of filing the ring ends to a taper. If you squint real good you may be able to see the spit and start of the taper. I had to put a toothpick in it to hold the ring up for the picture.
Here we see the finished ring.
Here are both main anchors posing for the picture. Now the only thing left are the bolts that hold the stock pieces together.
I hope all yuns approve.
Cheers,
