Thanks to all the likes. All the frames were now glued. Just take your time and perform several dry tests before performing the real step. I fixed the bases temporarily at the table to facilitate the task, Time to fair carefully the hull.

Welcome to MSW You will learn a lot of tips through the different build logs. A wonderful forum !
-
Thanks to all the 'Likes'. I test the five single part frames. A great kit from Syren. Everything goes perfectly and the instructions are again a model of pedagogy. Thanks Chuck for your wonderful work !

Thanks for all people who follow this build. I just simulated the bolts using 25 lb. black monofilament and added the transom. As always with Syren Ship, just follow the instructions and all fits perfectly.

As I finish the Queen Anne Barge, it's time to begin to build the Medway longboat. It is again a real pleasure to work on a kit of this quality 😀

The oars are almost complete I just need to add the thin tape around the tip of the blade. The Flags have also been added. I think the flag at the bow need more folds... I just have to finish the carvings...

HMS Winchelsea (1764) 32 gun frigate GROUP PROJECT INFO
JpR62 replied to Chuck's topic in Group Projects on Model Ship World
Building the Winchelsea is in my projects but not right now. I'm currently finishing the Queen Anne Barge and have the Medway longboat in the starting blocks 😊 I do not have the necessary tools (no scroll saw, table saw or mill) for the moment. I will probably wait on the plywood bulkhead set as the purchase of a scroll saw is currently not planned. I would also use the laser cut parts. -
Thank you to all the 'Likes'. I finish to built the lower mast and top mast. I replace the metal cast hoops from the kit by the mini-kit from Syren Ship. The 5 mm cleats also come from Syren. I just simulate the nails with some black colored wire (0.32 mm) Mast mounting test. The mast cap casting must be burnished. The fid passed through the rectangular slot prevents the topmast slipping through the top. I will now work on the bowsprit and jibboom.

US Brig Syren by Gahm - Model Shipways
JpR62 replied to Gahm's topic in - Kit build logs for subjects built from 1801 - 1850
Wonderful job. This jolly boat is a beauty ! -
Thank you for the answer 😀. So I will secure the oars in their thole pins with glue and a help of a little pin made with thin wire.
-
As for my Queen Anne Barge I think to put the oars in position of use, I would like to know if I must tie the oars to the oar locks. I found a wonderful example on this site that shows that the oars are attached to the thole pins (on a armed longboat). Is it the same for a ceremonial barge like the Queen Anne Barge ? If yes, how to attach the oars to the thole pins (type of knots) ? Thanks in advance for your help.

In parallel, I worked on the oars. The problem was to find a solution to repeat the regular shaping of the blades. I built a little jig for this. Just turn the blade halfway in order to have a regular angle on both sides. Then the blades are slightly bent All the four pieces are finally glued together The ten sweeps are ready for the painting phase...

I just made a little advance on the flag staffs. They are in place waiting on the flags.

Always a pleasure to see your work. So precise and clean. Wonderful job on the gratings.

Thanks for all the likes. Captain_hook, I still have a lot of work before I finish... and I work in parallel on the queen barge 😉 Not a great advance. I just come back from a week holiday in Paris. Too bad that the National Maritime Museum is closed. But I still had 2 beautiful days at the Army Museum. Beautiful collection of armor and naturally very complete display on Napoleon's time. I just put in place all the elements constituting the deck. Before starting my work on the masts, I will focus again on the queen barge. It's time to set up the oars 😉

Chuck, thank you for your nice comment. As I have been working theses past weeks on my other build (rigging of the canons of the Armed Virginia) and it took a long time..., he did not have a big step forward. I just finished to add the two flag staffs... But I will start working on the oars quickly 😉
