Thanks Keith, I did use a fine nosed plier, bend the brass wire around 0.5mm drill and pressed tight, cut again with a fine side cutter.
I wish you a happy new year. -

Hi Ilhan, that is very nice detail. Thanks for posting the sequence of photos showing how you you are doing this. I assume you will be bending the davit arms to a curved arc extending outboard at some stage.
I am following with interest as I need to do something very similar at scale 1:72 and you are showing what can be achieved.
cheers
Pat
That's right Pat.

Some progress. Applied sanding sealer and primer.
Waterway, hawse holes and bulwark stanchions are fitted.

No, there was only one message and I didn't name any ship ...
Ah, sorry. It was at "Segelschiffsmodellbau" and you did not mentioned any ship.

I think what amateur saw was something like this (No. 238):

Herr Falck, thanks for the picture. I can't see your first message, if I'm not wrong you named a ship in it.- mtaylor and Keith Black

Hey Jan, thank you very much for the Photos, valuable Information there. I think I may add them to my FlickR album of Loreley.
Exactly, they do like deadeyes with a cover on them. From the beginning I did have doubts. It's interesting that there are so many pictures none of them having a clear view of the deadeyes.

Ilhan. what a wonderful album of photos and your drawings.
In foto 39, they look like traditional deadeyes. in your drawings, S01 and S07, you have them drawn as traditional deadeyes. What has made you doubt your original thoughts?
I ask not as criticism but out of simple curiosity.
Thank you for posting the Loreley link, I wish you the very best in your continued efforts to realize your dream.
Keit, there is no problem of criticising. You are right asking this. From the beginning I did have doubts and I do still have. I've drawn them as deadeyes (with reservation) to finish the drawings. At that time I didn't asked this here at MSW, which I'm doing now. Thanks for your wishes.- druxey, Keith Black and mtaylor

Ilhan, the photos of Loreley are a neat look back in time. Other than the plans you created, is your only source of information for the build these photographs you shared?
Keith, all the Information I used is here. (There are pages 1-2 )

Beautiful work, Ilhan. The model is looking great. As you are so good working in brass, I wonder why you used acrylic for the stern post. Will it be strong enough?
Thanks Druxey. No its not, it breaks easily at a strong hit. But I found it easy to let it cut by laser rather than cutting myself a 1 mm thick brass. I can cut brass but I overestimated cutting a big part of 1 mm brass. It's okey when I take care. Even after a few breaks. 😉

I'm going slowly on. Glued the rail made of 1mm pear strip and planked the forecastle.
