    I left the bottom straight without thinking too much about it. Since the lids would be open anyway, they wouldn't be visible

    To plank completely correctly, spiling is required, particularly from the lower end of the wales to the keel. However, we don't know if the wood Dave will use for the second layer planking will allow for lateral bending.

    I noticed this too. Your ship has a Bluff bow. Making the garboard shorter seems difficult. To create a planking pattern that matches the photo you've attached, you can apply a planking pattern similar to the one I've tried to draw on your photo in the second layer. To do this, you could end the planking from the bulwark down to the lower end of the wales, then work your way up from the keel. Sorry, I am not good at drawing on the computer but I think you can understand what I wanted to show.

    Everything is going well, Greg.

    Yes, I guess with that thought, I also mounted the pin rails in place before the carronades.

    Yes, Greg, I visited that historic monastery. It's an incredible structure. The Sumela Monastery is a Greek Orthodox church built in 386 AD. The exact time it took to complete is unknown. It's located within the borders of Trabzon province on the Black Sea coast of northern Türkiye. Detailed information about the church is in the Wikipedia link below. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumela_Monastery

    Sorry for the late reply, Peter. I don't actually remember why I installed the pin rails before the carronades. It would probably have been more appropriate to install them after the carronades.
  26. mtbediz
    Yes, this is the right approach. In my Essex model, I frequently encountered this question: "Well, didn't the sailors fall through these gaps?"
  27. mtbediz
    A very nice model of Sphinx! Congratulations.
  28. mtbediz
    You're about to catch me! Carronades look awsome.
  29. mtbediz
    I only faired the first bulkhead in the bow before gluing it in place, because that one had a lot of sanding to do. I used my sanding macine to do it.
  30. mtbediz
    Yep, that's it! Straps look very nice.
  31. mtbediz
    Thank you so much my dear friend!
  32. mtbediz
    Not really! Just sitting by the pool, sipping my vodka and watching my grand daughter Bon appetit to you too.

    For sure it is hot! but not where I am sitting down right now

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.
