  1. you will get more chance of answer in this topic https://modelshipworld.com/forum/5-nauticalnaval-history/
  2. heads, toilets... yes or no? when I was on a NATO maneuver in West Germany (1983). If you had to... Then you dug a hole, covered it with sand, and that's it. Or there was a forest full of trees.... off topic, but... Much later I had a Polish colleague at work who is the same age as me. I said it was their fault that I had to join the army. because the Warsaw Pact was preparing an invasion of Western Europe. No he said, I had to join the army because NATO was preparing an invasion against the Warsaw Pact. 🤔
  3. Welcome to MSW and good luck
  4. Planking First planks were placed on which the large PE parts will later be glued. For the correct position, the height of a cannon was first measured. And this way the position of the first wale can be marked. Once this wale is glued, the excess part of these first planks is removed and further planking can take place. Planking, work in progress
  5. Forecastle update. All frames are placed A temporary support is placed at the top. And there are 2 cannon ports. To place 4 according to the Anthony roll, the fore castle is too small in my opinion. The interior finish is in the same line as the rearcastle. The higher planking is according to the clinker method Thanks for following
  6. indeed. first making a cardboard replica of your forecastle can't hurt. And then you can also check if you have enough space for your standing rigging of the fore mast
  7. Goed begonnen is half gewonnen (Flemish saying) Google translate is a disaster translate this... he who starts well prepared. has already won half the challenge

  9. I had an extensive discussion with that person (in front of the mirror ). We will provide heads in the fore castle. There is definitely room for 4 Thanks Thank you for bringing up this topic, 👍
  10. good question. I haven't really thought about this. Anyone have any suggestions??
  11. The planking has started. At the bottom, first 3 regular planks and above that, clinker planking will be placed. Stock of deck planking sawn. And the lowest deck is planked. This will be virtually invisible later, so I didn't spend much time on it. And now, placing the frames
  12. planking Corel's idea is to nail extra supports to the deck. I don't think this is very practical. That's why they were removed and this material was used in a different way that gives more support to the planks. The pear planks are very flexible. I don't know anything about a 17th century yacht, so I bought some reading material in advance. There is no hole for the tiller.But the problem was seen in time and solved planking, work in progress. The diagram of the planking on the transom comes from the book.
