Possible rectified gammoning's holes simulation :
-
Jean-Claude Lemineur wrote me that verticalised and equidistant frames will be without real visible difference about shape of hull Here, as previewed, pics of a simulation of gammoning :
-
With vertical frames, it's possible to draw floating line as reference, and that's I preview :
-
I try to follow my built with a paper frame of head's knee : I answer J-C Lemineur about a curiosity (I've never saw that before...) : the gammoning's notches sink under the floating line... I shall tell you the response when received
-
Last today work :
-
Following work about the keel :
-
Beginning of curving rabbet, 1 mm deep for 2 mm planking :
-
Moby Dick, chapter one 😋
-
Beginning of work by the keel, which will be horizontal, with equidistant and vertical frames, to improve the general look :
-
Next news : I stopped momentously the Saint Philip's shipyard, some defaults of print made several pages as unreadable 🤢 The editor must post others soon... French quality... 😋
-
Beginning of cut of frame's patterns Waterline in blue (like a famous Rhapsody... 😋), and first gun-deck figured in red color :
-
[ And you should have bopped him upside his head for not having the keel at an incline on the original lines plans in the first place ] wrote Jagger That's was done... I cannot repeat here the entire discussion 😋
-
It's also possible to use blind cannons barrel for the two down invisible gun desks, to simplify... No desk built would be necessary 😋
-
After verification with Jean-Claude Lemineur, author of Saint-Philippe's monograph, the ship has a rear inclined keel : For exact construction, reproduce this angle pf 1.2 ° by a 1.2 cm part placed under fore keel, and install vertically all frames For a closed hull construction, it's possible to ignore this particularity, because the difference is very small with 1.2 cm for one meter length, but, in such a case, it will be necessary to prepare a new draw of the horizontal keel, the result of general look could be even a little more "elegant"
-
I have now some wooden orders to place with my supplier, before following the work ☺️
-
The keel was copied from the 1/72 source plan, and it's dimensions verified with compass : You can see the notches (green on the screen), placed towards the position line for the frames AR (rear), and forward for noted AV (front) The keel is subdivided into two parts : the keel itself, and a thinner false keel, placed above it, that receives the down notches, the difference in thickness between high and down parts providing an uniform bulkhead (râblure in french), without to dig it into wooden mass (this simplified process was successfully used on USS Confederacy, and Niña, both in closed built) The other functions of this false keel is to support the first gun deck with adapted camber, which will be applied to all other desks of ship
-
Wait and see... 😋
-
I enjoy too, Strelok 😀
-
The drawing of all frames at scale 1/72 is done (following step of plan's report will be the keel) :
-
I received this morning the 1/72 edition : First step : preparing all paper frames and order the different woods for building skeleton...
-
New simulation of colors harmony :
-
Comparing the sizes between the future Saint-Philippe at scale 1/72 and Model Shipways USS Confederacy :
-
I inform you that my order for the 1/72 mono of St Philippe will be send to me next Monday... After recept, I hope starting this new challenge 😀
-
Last news of my new project : I decided to reduce scale from 1/48 (120 cm) to 1/72 (90 cm) : the first version would be too large for my home... 🤔 I shall start a new thread at scale 1/72 when ready (after reception of right scaled monography i've to buy)
