    The upper sills were originally upside down and this is already corrected as can be seen below. The ability to make such corrections in a relatively easy way is perhaps one of the major strengths of computer-aided designing, provided the actual 3D model is properly designed.
     

     
     
    The lack of space in the bow part of the ship is evident in this view:

    ... bits, knights, more hatches, ledges, etc. No carlings on the weather deck (intentional), or perhaps two long equivalent 'carlings' along the length of the whole deck.

    Hi Everyone, The Pinky is ready to plank.The planking will be 1/16” x 1/4”. The directions suggest that you can make the wide section of the garboard and the steeler out of one piece of sheet so that’s what I did. Laid a strip of wood along the hull where the broad strake would sit in order to get an idea of how far forward the garboard would run and to get some dimensions. This is where my first oops occurs. I sanded the garboard so that it sat in the rabbet at the stern post and along the keel. I took measurements at the stern post and at bulkhead number 7. Joined the two points with a straight line and cut.
     

     

     

     

     
    This is what I ended up with. Both sides are the same so I  it wasn’t a sanding error. Should have taken measurements at each bulkhead.
     

     
    The next strake needed some finessing to fill the gap. Been gluing scraps of wood to the backside of planks at the stern where the planks twist to keep them on the same plane. 
     

     

     

     
     
     
    The planking looks like it’s back on track so I lined off the hull where belt C ends and used tick strips to measure the remaining two strakes in that belt.
     

     

     

     

     
    Belt C is finished so I lined off the hull for Belts B and A
     

     
    That  is where the build is at as of today. See you next time.

    Ondras71 reacted to Rock_From_Korea in Golden Hind by Rock_From_Korea - 1:48   
    I had great advises from many MSW members on the grating of the 16th century galleon. I am planning to benchmark the style applied by Patrick (Baker) and also got detailed drawings for correct grating from Allan (allanyed). Thank you all for your inputs! 
     
    First, I built the base structure (I just came up with this particular design - seems reasonable) where the grating would be positioned. And then I proceeded with the actual grating work. 






    At this point, to my horror, I realized that I got the position (or direction) of ledges and battens wrong!! As the main grating was not a perfect square, I had to redo the main grating. Fortunately, the small grating just fit nicely when turned 90 degrees - no need to redo this one. 

     
    Main grating redone with correct ledge position (or direction) and awaiting battens to be laid.

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.
