  1. Having drawings of the ship's profile, at least three decks and a midship frame, you can design a general drawing of the hull. And it will be very close to the original. I wish you good luck in this work!
  2. I made some gears for the future. So as not to lose the skill of working with metal during the construction of the hull.
  3. We are all waiting for a fascinating story of the creation of another masterpiece! Keith, I wish you the best of luck on this journey.
  4. Thanks Keith, I'm fine! All parts are made separately and soldered together with silver solder. After soldering with silver, the brazed seam is very strong. This allows me to bend the propeller blade to the desired angle using ordinary pliers. In this case, between the propeller blade and the metal of the tool, I insert a small wooden spacer. It protects the item from deep scratches.
  5. Tony! Now I'm working on the hull of the destroyer. It's dusty and dirty work, and I try to do it outside. However, bad street weather now does not help speed up the process. And I'll have to wait a bit and work on different blueprints...
  6. Hello Tony! Yes, this is the photo that fascinates me! All problems with the lines plan are easily solved with the help of a graphic program. You did the right thing by photographing this drawing! I am already sending you a private message....
  7. In any case, thanks for your efforts at my request!
  8. Perhaps this is known, but the section TSS WAHINE (1913) erroneously contains 9 drawings of WAHINE (1966).
  9. Thanks a lot Richard for the tip! On this site, I found drawings of SS MAHENO I. I have long wanted to see them after viewing the magnificent model. https://archivesonline.wcc.govt.nz/nodes/view/787332?keywords=&type=all&lsk=68acb84e9681c8447b6d26479eb1fe4d
  10. Yes, all Union Company steamers from SS Aorangi (1883) to TSS Maunganui (1911) are of interest to me. This is exactly the period of shipbuilding that I am interested in.
  11. SS ARAWA and his sistership SS TAINUI . I will be very grateful to you if you learn about the drawings of these ships.
  12. Thanks Ras! My process is slowly moving forward, while the epoxy resin on the hull dries, I am making the propeller group of the destroyer.
  13. Hi, Richard! Congratulations on starting a new project! This is a beautiful steamer and a wonderful scale for a model. Is this catalog publicly available? I want to find drawing information for ss ARAWA (1884) type steamers.
  14. Thanks Roger, I found this book! https://archive.org/details/hydedeckmachiner00hyde/mode/1up?view=theater
  15. Thank you! This seems to be exactly what I need. I won’t be able to pay, but you can try to consider at least the name of the drawing. Please provide a direct link to the page.
  16. Hello Roger! Unfortunately, my google doesn't find the page I'm looking for. If it's not difficult for you, then give me a direct link to this page.
  17. Thanks Bruce, I'm fine! Yes, most likely it is a European production. I see such winches in photographs and models of British-built ships of the late 19th century and early 20th century.
  18. I am looking for a drawing for a cargo steam winch, shown below. I meet her on steamships built in 1890-1900. , approximately. Its main important features from later ones are non-flanged steam cylinders, a long and narrow drum.
