  1. But transporting the ship's boat in this way was not without danger. Read this somewhere in one of my books. An English fleet on its way to Spain ran into a storm and almost all the boats towed in this way were gone after the storm...
  2. test Does this help? You can do this with the right mouse button
  3. Thanks for the encouragements. To anyone who will follow this. Thank you in advance for your time and attention 👍 This build will take a very long time. Provide yourself with an easy seat, drinks, appetizers, etc 😉
  4. On a computer you can set the size of the letters. On a smartphone I don't know how to do this
  5. Thank you all for the nice comments. Small update. Olympia is painted an has decals.
  6. Thank you very much. And yes, the trick with the angle grinder was indeed a little scary for me too 😇😉
  7. Welcome on the start of what will become a long build log of the Mary Rose. The idea is to build this model like on the cover of the book "Mary Rose, Your Noblest Shippe" HISTORY (Wikipedia) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Rose MUSEUM https://maryrose.org/the-history-of-the-mary-rose/ BOOKS INDEX Frames (bulkheads) Design Building slip and align the frames Fillerblocks Planking Keel and lower hull planking Planking between wale 1 and 3 Treenails Waist an bow Rear castle Build up Cannon deck Basis Base plate Started sawing wood at the beginning of last year (cherry) Books have been bought and partially read. The frames have been enlarged with a printer to a scale of approximately 1/48 - 1/50. I first wanted to build on a scale of 1/45 (like my Pelican). After an initial investigation whether I have room for a fully finished model on that scale, it will be a scale of 1/50. 1/45 will be too big to fit in the closet. The first step is drawing out the frames on paper (3D designing and printing is not my thing, drawing, sawing, filing, sanding and making dust is). To be continued
