Hello again, I'm still working on the drawing of my PS. Altough I have/collected much of information I came again to a dubious point and ask for opinions. I marked the positions of the sponsons with red on the side view plan, I think there should be also a sponson where I marked with green as this is where the paddle box sits. I'm not sure if it is true what I think. Should there be a sponson or otherwise how is it constructed. I have also a cross section drawing where there is no support shown for the sponson. I'm not sure if there are supports for all of the sponsons or not. And if the other shorter sponsons are like the one on this cross section drawing. Thanks in advance Ilhan

Hey thanks for the clues. I do interpret the construction as this. Can this be possible. ( The height of the half bulwark is around 45-50 cmm. )

Thanks again for the helpful comments. Regarding the same ship I have another point which I need to clarify which is the constuction of bulwarks. Unfortunately on the drawings it is not clearly shown. My main concern is that there are no stanchions shown on any drawing. Can this be true that the bulwarks are steel plates without any support. The steering chain covers are also shown flush with the bulwarks that there is no room for stanchions. I couldn't find any similar vessels which have such bulwarks. Thanks again in advance Ilhan

Hey Steve thanks for your opinions. Unfortunately there is no such a drawing(detail of the gangway). I suppose as you said that this a seperated deck section for passengers to step on. But why a seperate drawing if not that complicated ? Why seperated deck section if level with the deck ? How does it look like ? Don't the similar vessels have such a gangway ? Questions, questions,..

I'm seeking info about a gangway on a deck. The vessel is a passenger ferry paddle steamer. On the drawings, there is a gangway on the deck crossing midships aft/front the paddleboxes. I'm trying to find out, how does it look like? Is it a simple second (higher) planking on the wood deck ? The only cross section view does not tell much but brings up one more questions i.e. "is there a wood planking around the engine room?" Thanks again in advance for your opinions which are always very helpful.

Thanks for the ideas. There is not enough info on the drawings. It's best to have photos/drawings of relevant similar vessels. I'll try to make a new topic about this.
-
Herr Falck yes, its a passenger ferry. Steam paddle ship. I've attached the other drawings. The gangway is on where the passengers walk to the saloons.

Still trying to clear up the drawings, my second topic is the gangway on the deck crossing midships aft/front the paddleboxes. Again the same question arises. How does it look like? Is it a simple second (higher) planking on the wood deck ? The only cross section view does not tell much but brings up one more questions i.e. "is there a wood planking around the engine room?" Thanks again in advance for your opinions which are always very helpful.

Hi Nils, Hallo Herr Falck, thanks a lot for the photos and info. I'm starting to picture it.

Hey Steve, thanks a lot. Your sketch seems to be the most probable. By the way I liked your build log.
-
Thanks a lot for the comments. These help much. I have a sketch. It's maybe similar to this.
-
Hey Kurt thanks for the response. That's what I tought at first but on the second photo there are two crossovers over this part. So I assume it's above the deck level. But still not exactly sure about it.
-
John, thanks a lot for the photo and info. Let me ask you, do you know more about this cover other than this photo. Is it simple wooden board following the railing? Are the stanchions sitting on top of this board? Or maybe it's in front of the stanchions. Do you have any idea. I searched many books and drawings, could not find anything.

Dear friends, I have some original drawings of a steam paddle ship. There is a point on the drawings which I have diffuculties to visualise as there are not sufficient info. It's steering chain/rod cover. On the drawing only on the top view its indicated that there is teak cover over steering rod but no other information on other views. I appreciate any opinion about this, how does it look like.

Hi Ferit Kutlu, thanks. That's because I'm building in a room/lounge at home. Actually I would like to have a small milling machine and a lathe but they are not an absolute must.

These are bushings for the portholes 5x0.5mm brass tube. The portholes will be 4x0.25mm brass tube with glazing and will be installed after painting. These are bushings for the portholes 5x0.5mm brass tube. The portholes will be 4x0.25mm brass tube with glazing and will be installed after painting.
