RGL got a reaction from Aussie048 in HMB Endeavour by RGL -FINISHED - Artesania Latina
Main and Fore yards complete. I have not yet attched the tackle as I will use two of them to be lowering a ship's boat and the other will be slung with the tricing lines to the stays. These are hopefully the most difficult of the lot with so many blocks to attach. Only 9 to go!

RGL reacted to DaveRow in HMB Endeavour by DaveRow - FINISHED - Corel - Scale 1:60 - First Build Kit
This is my first build of a model wooden ship.
I chose the Endeavour as it is part of our nations discovery, and plenty of others being built to see gather tips and trips for the build.
I am using 2 pack epoxy glue(no nails) for all the timber to timber joining.
From what I have seen, the build may take years, and just as well I have started now, plenty of time to finish in retirement - when it comes.
Enough waffle, some pictures and see where this goes.

You're going to need a vacuum bag for her and some moisture traps to stop her warping!

Hi Greg, nice work on the yards mate; look great!
Better hurry up though I am catching you at a snail's pace (just finishing the lower standing rigging - will post an update soon).
cheers

A productive weekend so far, blocks attached to both the fore and main yard, and footropes attached and dampened with diluted white glue to get them to fall properly. One they have set to the stirrups i will lash them. Once dry I can re paint.

The fore and main yards. Several days to strop all the blocks required. Now I have to get the Stirrups and footropes right before lashing them. I think I intend to finish all the yards (11 of them) first so I can work from Bow to stern, low to high. The only blocks missing here are the lower tackle block.

Ok, stirrup time. I used a needle to thread some 1.5mm line around a needle then glued it to form the base of the stirrup, then trimmed it when dry. i then set 15mm of length with CA to set it hard. The using some plastic strip to keep the distances correct at 15mm, slung them underneath the yard and lashed them. i can't actually attach the footropes until I lash the blocks on. A bit of black paint to hide the sins will follow.

The only other reference I've found via my books and Ray Parkin's book is they drop strait into the first companionway forward. As such, pointless PM'ing the photo. The AL instructions just have you drill a couple of holes in the deck. You've done such a fantastic job on yours it will take a rebuild of the cabinet work. Maybe Marquardt made it up?

Two weeks work, and pretty much the last of the woodwork, Spars and yards done.Lots and lots of blocks and ropes to go. What's the best way to make stirrups?

I kinda went strait off the AOTS if you have a look at my log. I've also got Parkinson's reference if you want me to PM a photo? It's different.

Looks very very neat! Are you going to drill holes for the anchor cable to go into the hold?

Ty Ian- the track is peco code 100 track. The tinlets are stored upside down as it stops a skin forming on the paint.
