The handles are made of pieces of brass tubes of 2mm diameter.

12.35

Each of the covering planks has two handles. Below the handles is a shallow deepening. I make it with a round mill.

12.34

The making of the hatch-way and the planks don't need a lot of explanation.

12.33

Behind the winch is the shrimp cooking store. On top of it there is also a hatch-way which is covered with removable planks.

12.31

The composed winch. The stringers are continuing below the deck and are still kept together with an elastic until the glue is dry.

12.30

Different parts of the winch

12.29

At the back side of the winch there is a metal bar.

12.28

At the other side of the big cog-wheel, a handle has to be attached.

12.27

I make the capstan roll of a square piece of oak of which I plane off the corners till it is a octagon. Then I drill a hole in the center in which the shaft of the cog-wheels fits.

12.26

I saw the winch stringers to the correct length. They go down below through the deck till they end between the ship frames under the below deck. I make also four bearers in which the capstan roll ant the axis will rest in wood. Later they will be painted in black.

12.25

To make the fishing winch, I start with cannibalizing an old clock. I provides my all the different cog-wheels needed.

Thank you Mark and Hakan.

The deck is made with pine like it was on that kind of boats.

I finish the hatch with sanding it and adding corner-claps to the corners.

12.23

Planking the hatch. Again with black cardboard strips between the planks.

12.22

The frame of the hatch in place on the hatchway.

12.21

The hatch itself is made of straight planks. I sand the top-rounding with the band sander after the planks are glued together.

12.20

The fish hold is covered by a hatch. In the pictures below you see the subsequent stages of the construction of the hatch-coamings. I believe they are self explaining.

12.19

I solder two small round footplates at the deck side and the traveler is ready.

12.18

To shape the traveler, I make a wooden mold. The traveler is given form by hammering it around the mold.

12.17

The jib sheet traveler is made of a 2mm brass rod. Both sides are thicker to stop the traveler ring. Therefore I solder two pieces of brass tube to the ends.

Derek,

It looks impeccable. Nice joinery!

The hatches into their position on the cross section.

I saw the outline of the paper out of the grating.

To tailor the grating, I transfer the inner sizes of the hatch on a piece of paper and position that paper on the grating with some paper glue.

Finishing the hatches with sand paper.
