Trussben got a reaction from realworkingsailor in Medway Longboat 1742 by Trussben - 1:24. Exposed Framing - FINISHED
Off to a slow start with the Longboat, the more detailed keel was used and the halving joints were pared down using a very sharp 1” chisel.
Keel bolts were simulated with the 20lb line and a coat of WOP was applied to everything.

Nice to see you back Ron, I do hope you can recover all your old pictures, would be a great loss to the site not to have them.

Trussben reacted to Chuck in Planking your Medway Longboat - Discussions and Questions
OK.....you guys are going to laugh your heads off!!!!! All of you who bought kits already should have two of planking sheet "P". Of course due to a typo on my materials list where I didnt place the (2) next to P.....means all of you got just one sheet "p". Because I of course followed my own mistake on the materials list. I must be tired. So next week I will ship one planking sheet "P" to every person who bought a kit so far. No biggie. Sorry for the mix up. Unless you got 2 sheet P's because if I had extras I just stuck them in some kits. Please let me know so I can save on shipping you a new one needlessly.
If by chance you dont want to wait because you are planking right now....you have more than enough room on the bottom of each 1/32" sheet to cut those planks. But if you can wait....you will soon just get a sheet of planks in the mail. I will try and ship them all next week......argh!!!!
Sorry again......Good times for me. Stupid mistake....

Trussben got a reaction from giampieroricci in HMS Pegasus 1776 by Trussben - 1:48 - Swan-class sloop based on TFFM
Lower deck framing continues up to beam no.9. This can be frustrating work to keep everything correctly spaced and symmetrical, constant adjustments need to be made as well to account for drift.
Layout for the aft framing including the beam arms can be seen.

Trussben got a reaction from MEDDO in English Pinnace by MEDDO - FINISHED - Model Shipways - Scale 1:24
I wouldn’t go near that with any type of power tools! it’s only basswood so just take it slow with some 100 grit and a couple of hours work will see you there.
