  1. you can find everything in these databases https://thenrg.org/resource/articles
  2. The planking of the lower hull part is ready. This morning everything is made ready for sanding and scraping. In the meantime I did the garden, washed the cars and did other small jobs (the regular Saturday work..) result. am quite happy with this special plank at the stern. Now there is first a "quality check". Then the sanding is continued and the keel will be tapered. Thanks for comments, likes or just visiting this build, this is very much appreciated.
  3. freely of your choice. After research I decided not to put a flagpole. Most drawings and especially sketches of ships from this era were made years later and are not really representative. Of course, free choice, if you do put one on it. No one can say you are wrong 😉
  4. very neat cannons Considering these wrought iron cannons were rear loaded. They sure aren't too long. On the contrary, they seem to be just the right length. And you can also mix shorter versions with this length. At that time there was no standardization whatsoever. The_Arming_of_Late_16th_century_Merchant.pdf
  5. I changed my name once and the links continued to work correctly. Your username in the titles of your post will not change. Then I had to change them all separately, one by one.
  6. Small planking update. With the experience already gained, much less has to be calculated and noted on the fillerblocks. The dimensions of the other side are simply taken over on this side. about half way
  7. If you stop your galleon now.Then there is a chance that you will not start again. I would finish this first.
  8. the 70s 80s solution from Heller. the modern solution "a la" John McKay What an "English" method does on a French ship is not clear to me
