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.

Mix of PVA+sawdust is very stabil and hard.

The planks are 2x5 mm limewood.

Used PVA throughout.

Here are the drawings.
 

My new project is a steam yacht from 1884. It's Loreley. The drawings are made by myself which I shared some time ago in this  forum.
 

Thanks for the info Marsalv, much beautiful sails.
In the past I did use CA for the rigging. But now I only use PVA glue and this works well.
In my last model I made three folds at the edges with some fight. Next I will try the two folds.

Perfekt. This is a very fine fabric. 
Are there two or three folds at the edges. If two, how do you make it that the edges don't get fuzzy. And the belts, are there any folds or are they only one layer ?
 

Fantastic.
How did you do the hammock cranes, soldering, gluing, cutting from sheet, tube ???

Tried to write something. But I'm speechless.

Hey Victor,

Here is an old tutorial for Delftship. It's for old versions but you can find some important tips.

For up to date info you refer to the Delftship site. But as far as I know there is no tutorial any more for the newer versions.

Correct!!!  Bottom of ports follow the run of the deck.  Sides are vertical and straight with teh frames.  Port lids will be the same.  Typical mistake seen on kits.  Not all ports are completely square at all.  Take a look at this original draft.  The red dashed square is at right angles.  Note how the port is not.   It follows the deck.

I wonder how the hinges are fixed in this case, parallel to the sides or vertical to the top side ?

Hi friends, thank you very much for the nice comments.

Uploaded photos of the finished model to the gallery.
Some of them are here. 

Thank you very much Edwin, Dave.

Dave, my Mayflower is at scale 1/60 but I think(now) 1/50 would be ideal for this ship.

Hey Per, thank you very much. That's perfect.
 

I do have only some drawings and trying to find out what it looks like. Up to now I found out that it exactly matches to the steam winch on Medea.
