    the description is "a la billings"... mast : 26 pieces...
  2. Baker
    if I remember correctly. First impression. Pieces with this shape are intended for the lower parts of the fore and main mast. so, you should have 2 like this. otherwise you may have one too many.

    I fill the open spaces between the bulkheads with fillerblocks when I make a scratch model. The reason is (was) that I did not have a correct frame drawing. Due to the thickness of the filler blocks, there is a lot of margin for sanding errors here and there. The first coarse sanding is then done with the vertical sanding disc (Goes quickly and without much effort). I will not do this with a kit model with 2 layers of planking, only a few at the bow and stern.

    An example from a great modeler

    The French text translated into Dutch Onder de elementen wordt genoemd "een kleine brajart" van 20 voet lang, 4 inch in diameter en 6 inch in toon. Ik veronderstel dat dit mastelement onder een naam die ik niet kende een luchtboog is die het mogelijk maakt een fok te vestigen, zijdelings met de wind mee of met volle reikwijdte en bij goed weer. Fok in English = fore sail It can be a curved yard for the fore sail (20 feet long 4 inch in diameter and a curve from 6 inch) To be able to make full use of the fore sail in good weather. There is no guarantee that this is the answer 😇😉

    Now that the bulkheads have approximately the right shape, it is time to add the extra supports between them Then the bulkheads and the supports are chamfered now my favourite part, fillerblocks These will be installed in the hull part below the cannon deck Number 1 in place Thanks for following

    With a broken grinding machine, some gears and some other leftovers you can build a serving tool. costs little, just some time 😉

    The 3 models are ready. These are all made "out of the box" As mentioned earlier, these Revell models are quite nice without extra detailing. The boxer The 6 x 6 And the 8 x 8 three in a row Thanks for following, comments and likes during this build

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.
