Dear colleagues, thanks for an assessment of information and discussion. I am always ready to answer your questions on the given technologies of imitation of nails of a deck flooring. As far as I know, besides given here exists also other technologies, it would be interesting to look at them and to discuss.

This project is development (the second version) 24-pound bronze gun of Le Fleuron 1729, M 1:24 http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/454-24-pdr-bronze-gun-le-fleuron-1729-by-garward-m-124/ constructed before model The model of a gun represents the artillery post consisting of a bronze gun with some accessories, fragments of a board and two decks. The model is made in M 1:24 according to drawings of the monograph Le Fleuron, the trunk of work of Alexey Baranov, part of wooden details - a gun carriage (except axes and aim wedges), beams, frames, gratings are made on a milling cutter with ChPU our Polish colleague Mirek. In this version I tried to consider experience of construction of the first option of this model. I provide some drawings, allowing to make general idea about the project, and also a photo of initial details below.

Many thanks for the comment! The drum in this device rotates towards to the direction of giving of processed details therefore it is necessary to put insignificant efforts for detail giving on polishing (usual manual giving, the detail easily is kept by a hand if not to try to remove for one pass of some mm ). -

To creation of this rig I was jogged by requirement for manufacturing (gauging) of laths and plate plainly-parallel sides for various details with accuracy of 0,05-0,1 mm on a thickness. The range of thickness of laths and preparations, and also ready flat details makes from 0,5 to 25-30 mm. I have applied for the first time the given machine tool to polishing of preparations of details of fodder gallery Montanes. In the beginning there was an idea to use for these purposes the scribing block, for example DH 40 PROXXON, but after the detailed analysis of possibilities and results of application of various scribing blocks I preferred other production engineering. Plancks or preparations are cut on jig save with the free tolerance (0,5-1 mm) that it is easy to make practically on any applied modeller jig save, and then calibrated on the grinding machine with necessary accuracy. This production engineering provides the big accuracy, than machining of laths on the scribing block, especially for thickness of 1-3 mm. At designing of the grinding machine I used the materials published on various sites, and also experience of the Polish colleagues on manufacturing and application of similar grinding machines: http://www.koga.net....p?f=536&t=26938 The general circuit design of a grinding part of the rig simple enough (see also the reference) and does not demand additional explanatories. Full information on the machine here http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/82-montanes-by-garward-occre/page-37

Most often used electric tools at construction of models of the ships are the circular saw, the grinder and the boring machine (or a drill). It makes sense to begin workshop equipment with these tools.

Interesting drawing turned out on the deck, similar to structure of wood of a nut. -

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
