Angarfather got a reaction from popash42 in Statenjacht Utrecht by Angarfather - 1:36
Almost three weeks I had some trouble with pneumonia. No fun for an old boy. But now I am better and the modelling will go on. Slow but with fun.
The deck beams from the bow to the mast.
That's the time to make the pinrail. The woodparts are from 5mm pear and the sheaves from 6mm brass. Some steps in modelling the nail rail
Cutting and drilling the sheaves
Ready
From here to stern I will modell the interior of the ship. Crew mess, staircase and than the Great Cabin.
Cheers Hartmut

Many thanks for all "likes"
After prolonged reflection I will furnish only the large cabin and the pavilion with interiors. Added to this are the stairs to the cabin and the foredeck

Modelling Gianna or Aga I had used 0,50 / 1mm planks. At the Utrecht I use pearwood 12mmx2mm.To work with this kind of planks was a new experience. They are very hard and difficult to form.
Now the outsite planking is finished. Here are some pictures from yesterday.

ere is a little update.
I have the transom again revised. Because of the strong grain of the wood the planks angle is barely visible. As said earlier, I will represent the caulking after grinding. Overall, it's an entirely different matter 2mm thick planks to shape and install. In my other models I have double planked hulk. And the plank thickness was only 0.75 mm.
Here the current results of the work

Modelling the wales.
To determine the location of the main wale I did use a copy of the sheer profile plan.
The location of the main wale
This copy was the base for modelling the wales.
I wasn't able to bend the bow parts of the wales, about it I have made it by sawing. I bend the long parts of the wales and later on the planks after immersing it in water. For the heat I use a soldering iron with a surface designed for bemding modelplanks
The distanz between the main and lower wale is one plank.

Hi Mateus,
Thanks for your post.
The angle of the planking was taken differntly according to the sources known to me. In the 16. and 17. century and at larger ships the shipwrights have taken that in the way you drew it. At the Staatenjachts especialy in the 18. century are angle from 15/20 degrees to perpendicular in the historic drawings to be seen. At the replica Utrecht is it approximativ 8 degrees, and in Dr.MacArdles drawings perpendicular. Espacially at the Staatenjachts it seems to be rather an aestheticle as an constructiv
element.
Kindly Hartmut

Keel and stems are in place. There were some pieces of wood, therefore I have made the rudder of it.
sawn
sanded
Next step was to mortise the timber transoms in place, and planking the square tuck. In addition, this work should be made well before planking.
to model the Wing transom was a nice and fiddly job.
The finished square tuck

Angarfather reacted to RMC in HMS Vanguard by RMC - FINISHED - Amati/Victory Models - scale 1:72
It's certainly a shame that all of the data has been lost. It was a wonderful resource. I still have some of the photos of my progress on the Vanguard and I will try to put these up now. I have just competed the wales and the first of the decorative strips (above the top wale) and I will post these when I get a chance.
I have just looked at this post and the photos have apparently gone up in reverse order. As well I was only able to load 9 files to the post, rather than the 10 that was advised elsewhere. The new format will take some getting used to. I hope my next attempt will be a bit less chaotic.
I have tried to add some more photos with comments and have tried to preview the added post. I'm afraid it looks like a dogs breakfast. I'm going to submit it and see what turns up. It is VERY frustrating.
This photo and the two below show my solution to the placement of the last timber strip to the main wale.
Here is the stern view of the completed main wale.
Starting the top wale. I first soak the first strip for a couple of hours, then clamp it in the correct position, leaving it overnight. This gives the correct curvature, I then glue it to the model complete and then cut the holes for the gunports. The remaining strip can then fitted easily below the first.
