After a day of sanding in the sun, the lower part of the hull is sanded. Also the keel and stem are tapered. All the screws holding Mary Rose upside down have been removed. And i gave her a cleaning with compressed air. The keel is tapered using the cross-sectional drawings. A bit straighter than the original... Since there is little left of the stem. it was a bit of free interpretation. And Mary Rose landed on her feet (oops, keel). Now the build slip needs to be adjusted before continuing Thanks for following, likes and comments.

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.

Yep 👍 -
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 😉

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 -

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.
