garyshipwright got a reaction from jansmiss in HMS Montague 1779 by garyshipwright - 74-gun Alfred-class
Hi guy's. Here's a update on the build but this time it is more about her building board. I add a way of being able to tilt her from side to side which helps keep the back in tack and a lot easier getting to thing's. I worked on a couple of hanging knee's and being tilted made it a lot better. I can't take the Credit for it which goes to Alan/AON and the tech info on it. Hope you enjoy the pictures and any question will be more then happy to answer them

Thanks Dan and your very welcome. Hopefully with all the good ideal's from the member's ,this will help you now and in the future along with getting a chance to see other's table and shop's and plant ideal's for you to enjoy building. Belive it or not my first work bench was two 4x4 and a couple of pieces of plywood that made up the top and a shelf below it. Enjoy the site good sir. .

Hi Dan welcome to the club. As others have said it depend's on the room you have. Am lucky to have a two car garage and a extension I added on to make more room for my stuff. As far as work benches and desk looking at other people shops help you in figuring that out about what you want. Am always asking some one for photo's of their shop, some times just to see their shop which also helps me use their ideals for things in it must like work benches. I have never had any one say know and we all like showing were we spend are time working on our hobby's. When I built my hobby desk I used Woodsmith plan of their small scale Hobby Bench which is on the cover. It reminded me of a jeweler workbench, and I have alway's wanted one. Nice thing about building your own is what you can add and the detail you put in to it. I also have a 8 foot wood worker bench. My 74 has its on workbench and is much to big to build it on the hobby bench. Her work bench is height adjustable and I just added a tilting to it that allows me to tilt it one way or the other. Really is nice for working inside the hull. The Woodsmith issue is Vol 37, No 219 Dated June/July2015. Forgive for the mess. Gary

Thought I would add some close up photo's of Montague. I was on the NRG site and came across the article by Kurt on taking photo's of ones work and figure I needed to practice a bit. Guess I have to find a little space for a photo booth when taking good photo's of my ship. Well guys one day maybe I get the hang of taking good photo's, hope you enjoy the close up. Gary

29 Floréal CCXXX; The last frame is raised and I removed the support board. Now we see the beautiful lines of this ship. I started to sand the inside of the hull to get the smooth and correct shape.
@garyshipwright Thank you very much. But with your project and your skill, you doesn´t need any inspirations from others.
