For imitation of nails the toothpicks which ends are pierced to diameter 0,5мм by means of a drill and the adaptation in the form of the brass cylinder with a flat bottom thickness 3мм on which center the opening by diameter 0,5мм is drilled are used. All these operations are done before installation of decks
on the hull.

For treenails imitation I use bamboo or birch toothpicks. Openings for nails of 0,5 mm in the deck were drilled by means of the conductor from a brass plate.

For models No. 1 and No. 2 two gun carriages were made.

This project represents the exposition consisting of three models of a bronze 24-pound gun of Le Fleuron 1729, M 1:24.  Idea of the project - to show model options in development - from gun model to battle station:   
-  The gun located on a fragment of the deck (No. 1);   
 
- The gun located on a fragment of the deck with a board and some artillery accessories (No. 2);  
 
- Battle station including a gun with roofing felts and accessories to firing, fragments of two decks, a board fragment with gun port and a cover (No. 3).

and also I constructed new model of the gun (No. 1) located on a fragment of the deck.   
 
Each of models is established on own support, in an exposition of model are united by the general stand.

-I added the electrified lamp.  
 
The lamp is made according to obtained at French on the Arsenal drawings (see poses.  2 on the drawing) that on the scale of M 1:24 gives diameter of cylindrical part of a lamp of 8 mm and height of 11 mm.  As a prototype the similar lamp of production of the French modeller of Alain Fosse served.   
 
The case and cover of a lamp are made of a brass bar, an insert with an opening under a light-emitting diode - from yellow plexiglas, food elements (2 AAA batteries) are established under a deck flooring, contacts for connection of a lamp are inserted into a seam between levels of a deck flooring.
