The two dales Each is made of 3 pieces as a base (bad photo, sorry) A finished dale Making the holes in the same place on both sides was a challenge. While the glue from the dales is drying, work continues on the inside. The support under each dale is fictional, and later virtually invisible. This gives the dale (as support for the deck) a slight curve And looking 5 steps further in the future. Checking the relationship between the sides of the castle, channel, mast and the schrouds of the main mast. Oops, I'm going to get in trouble if i go further this way... Noticed it just in time

Further planking of the rear castle. I started with the part that was planked according to the clinker build method. These planks were not sawn but made from tree trunks that were split. length of the planks no longer than 2.70 meters The first of these planks was tapered. Above the tapered plank it is marked how high the upper plank may be Further planking And then there was a week's holiday in the sun, which was put to good use doing research . Back home and continue planking. The intention is to have 6 layers of clinker build, in total I should end up with 9. Above that there will be shields. That's why I first have to place the 2 dales, which determine the correct location of the upper deck in the rear castle English lesson : Dale.. old English word. The intention of these two dales is to drain the pumped water from the hold outside. And if you have to pee....Do it in the dale (so their 2nd name : pisdale... 😳)

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
