    Greetings to all! Gaining more air in the chest, begin with an overview of the ship model "La Jacinte". Exactly one year ago I started this project, pre-assessing their own capabilities and finances. The choice of this prototype is primarily due to the fact that the model is repeatedly built by other modelers, reviewed many aspects of the construction, a simple mast and rigging, a small amount of artillery, and just a beautiful ship! Personally I really like the oblique sailing weapons! And so, to view!

    hi all
    just a quick update.
     
    keelson has now been fitted
     
    bolts for the scarf joints are 0.4mm copper........Goodwin says 1"-1/2" for these bolts so I spilt the difference and went for 3/4" more or less.
     
    bolts for the keelson into the frames are 0.8mm copper at every other frame station again as per Goodwin ...approx. 1 1/2" full size.
     
    quarter deck clamps are being glued in.....all treenails fitted prior to glueing.
     
    cheers for now.......mick

    Hola a todos.
    Mi nombre es Amalio, y soy un apasionado modelista español que se dedica al modelismo naval desde hace muchos años.
    Quiero mostrar una forma diferente de construir la enrramada de un casco. En este caso un navío de setenta y cuatro cañones español llamado Montañes.
    No es un sistema desconocido pero si poco utilizado. Se trata de construir un molde interior sobre el cual ir colocando todas las piezas que componen las cuadernas.
    Creo que estas fotos son suficientemente explicativas.
    Espero que os gusten.
    Muchas gracias

    Sometimes the work was brought to a halt, and to do other important things, but the schooner is the number One! Especially now...

    Andy, have a good trip and make a few dollars to buy more tools and wood.  That seems to be the way it goes...   Cellphones are the bane of our existence.
