shipcarpenter got a reaction from -Dallen in Triton by shipcarpenter - 1:48 - Cross-section
Hello,
So I printed plans of frames, numbered them and glued them on 5mm thick wallnut sheet. here was important to glue the pieces straight and correct - as I later recognized and must redo 5 pieces, but with 9x11 pieces it was ok.
And then made a little dust in my living room with scrollsaw. I enjoyed this work and with my proxxon saw blades it was quickly.
I clean up ends of every piece , for this I has no machine, but for this was enough chisel and sandpaper glued on small rectangular wooden stick.
I glued each plan of assemly on a small platte 9mm MDF. And then try and adjust the pieces until it finally clicked together.
I glued them step by step I let the glue to dry and then added other pieces.
Little training with treenails.

Hello,
this is my first attempt at building ship (ok part of ship) from scratch. I think it will be a good practise for beginning.
I dare not to build whole ship yet and I also do not have so much space at home for 1:48 ship.
I choose american walnut for main parts. I got this wood from my work - it is not a common species here in Europe.
It is hard and has a beautiful dark colour. I made the first 3 pieces according to plan.

shipcarpenter reacted to EJ_L in La Couronne by EJ_L - FINISHED - Corel - 1:100 - 1637 Version
After completing hour 705 today La Couronne has her mizzen mast in place with shrouds ratted down and the forestay in place. She is starting to look like a proud tall ship sitting there now. Next up will be the top masts. I am going to take a break though from her for a little while to work on S.R.'s planking. The top mast's rigging starts to get more intricate with the way the stays are run on ships of this era. Fortunately as a trade off the ratlines get fewer as you go up. I want to give the eyes a break before diving into the first set on the fore topmast. So back under the plastic she goes for a week or so. Till then....

Hello,
little update, here are the wrong pieces I must replaced with better ones.
I made building board of old furniture board. Also marked off space for keel( false keel).
Glueing keel with false keel together - I used PVA glue with black acrylic paint - It is not so good visible but maybe it come out with coat of varnish.
Last thing is unify joints for keel in every frame, I fixed frames on board with rectangular attached pin which fits to the groove for keelson. Then sanding until keel fits perfectly to the rabbet.
