jaerschen got a reaction from scrubbyj427 in HMS Leopard 1790 by jaerschen - 1/64 - POB - 50 gun ship
The Port Side is at the same progress as the Starboard Side.
I don't make many words because the procedure is the same.
Here some photos of the current progress.

Hello,
Thank you so much for your nice comments and also for the likes. I'm very pleased about this great interest.
Here's a little update. Some strakes below the wale and the garboard strake are fitted. The progress is very slowly because It's partial a bit tricky.
Also I needed time to find a way to add the planks without leaving any trace at the frames. Therefor the build from Ed of the Extreme Clipper is a great help.
In the TFFM-book this strakes are reffered to as thickstuff under the wales. There is a little step from the second to the third strake to see on the following photo. That's why the thickness of the strakes decreases. I will sanding down them when the fourth strake is installed.
That's the current progress.

If I fit the transoms I had a big trouble. The reason was a wrong angle at the top-view plan.
On the following photo you can see the correct angle and the discrepancy.
If I know that it was possible to fit transoms.

Thank you so much for looking and the kind comment B.E.
Here's a little update. The planking include the rails at the starbord side are finished so far as possible at the moment.
The ornaments at the end of the rails (I don't no the right term) were uncharted waters for me. I decided to do the rail and ornament at one piece.
I made a simply stencil because it needs several of that ornaments.
The shape of the rail is done with drawing plate and the ornament with cutter and curving tools
here you see it at the model
I desided to close the spaces between the bulkheads at the port-side based on some trubble during the planking
That's looking so
I believe the planking will be much easier at this

Hi Niklas and Adam, thanks for the kind words.
It's going on with the Main Wale. I done it in the same manner as John McKay is shown at his plans.
I made two templates at first because I must produce many equal pieces.
Also it must drawn the postion of the Main Wales to the Frames.
Thereafter began the agony
Here's the result

Hello,
after I put off my Triton build I started a new project. Now I want to build the 50-Gun Ship HMS Leopard 1790 (POB) ,1/64 scale
Therefor I bought the book The 50-Gun Ship from Rif Winfield. At this are the plans of the Leopard drawn by John McKay.
I don’t make many words about the build of the frames because that’s often described here on MSW.
Instead I show some photos.

Hello Guys
Sanding needs much more time as I thought. I began to fit the stern-timbers to have some change.
Now it goes on with sanding

Hello Guys
Here's a little update of my build. I install the aft Cant-Frames at the moment. You can see my practice of the following photos. I hate it to do the same for several hours. That's why I decided to produce a Frame, install it and than produce the next Frame and so on. At this way I had a bit of change.
To saw out the parts I use a band-saw with a special saw band for slightly curves.
I hope that the next update is showing the finish of the frame build.

Hello Guys
Most of the outside sanding is done and the Main-Wale is started.
The Wale at the bow is strongly curved and it's very hard to bend it as you know. I decided to saw out this part and it worked very well.
To fit the following parts were a lot easier
Another difficult part is last ledge at the stern. The ledge must be formed exactly before bonding. This approach should be used at all the parts of the planks because it's much easier.
The current progress
The next update is coming when the Main-Wale is finished

Hi Guys
It's done, all the frames are fitted and even the starboard side is a bit sanded.
The next step is sanding, sanding sanding,..........oh I hate it.

Hello guy's
I will start my build of the Triton again.
Christian (AnobiumPunctatum) and I are started our builds in 2009. But we built the hull in single frame and not in double frame based of the original drawings (Christians idea). It was originally planned to use the MSW frame drawings. But I realized during the build of the fore cant frames that the MSW frame drawings were not suitable for a single frame build. That's why I had a break for about 4 years. Now I pencilled all the frames new and would like to continue the build of the frames. After the frame build I'll use the MSW drawings for the remaining build.
Now there are some photos from The keel, stern apron etc.
More photos are following soon
