I started to manufacture and assemble parts. Probably, this work takes a lot of time (several months)

Of course, you can simulate nails and brass plates as on a real ship. However, it is believed that the actual model ship Eton ship. Model more craft ship. If we do like a plate on a real boat? Will it be beautiful?

Hello wefalck Of course, you're absolutely right in terms of the historical reality in terms of engineering performance copies of this ship. However, at such a small scale to try to do so as the present, the real ship is not possible. In addition, it should not be done. I do not make a real ship. I'm trying to create a model of the ship and it is above all the image of a real ship. The model is first and foremost a work of applied art. My task is to convey accurately the artistic image, the spirit of a real ship. Therefore (after the experiment), I chose the most successful variant (close to reality), which would correspond to the artistic concept model. Special thanks for the excellent photos. I already took this photo in my archive. Very useful for creating a model in 1:24 scale (at least !!!)

This is not the width of the board. This is the width of the metal sheet. Between the metal strip (pad) is added to belts sheets. The case will be processed in such a way to mimic the smooth metal.

Hello Nils I stuck to the sheets of adhesive cyanoacrylate. Layouts corresponds to the project.

No less than two months of work ahead ... stamp sheets underwater routers endless panels. Older vise broke. That bought new that will break the already problematic.

Hi Michael. I bought a brass rolling here: https://www.olx.ua/obyavlenie/latun-prokat-v-assortimnte-IDn2Xdv.html#2b6c22e261

Technology is no longer a secret. I did not strain your brain. Our dear great friend Dr. Michael long ago came up with the technology. Dr. Michael kindly told me all the details of the technology. However, it was always just the improvement in my repertoire. I added a digital technology and better materials. So my merit is not great.

No. Lead use is not desirable. I tried to get bad. For the "mom" is better to use a solid metal. I tried the aluminum but it quickly wears out. So I began to use steel 45.

Hello Nils. I use a sheet of brass rolled thickness of 0.3 mm.Dlya smaller models is convenient to use a sheet thickness of 0.2 - 0.25 mm.
-
I made stamps from solid high carbon steel with heat treatment. It was the most difficult process of work.

Hello. Sorry for the mistake ... I had in mind the production of finishing surfaces. It always turns out in a hurry. when they speak directly .... Haste needed when catching fleas and diarrhea. The stamp is made on CNC milling machine. I used the high-carbon steel. Then I stamped tempered at a temperature of 800 degrees. After stopping the reaction is released at a temperature of 250 - 300 degrees. The press turned out of the rut and special molds. The mold is made of steel 45. I will show the manufacturing process (stamping brass sheets). The sheets already cut to size. 0.3 mm thick sheet.

Slow progress. I continue to work with fine poverhnostyami.Izgotavlivayu stamp and press sheets for the underwater part.
-
Made seats mast mounting. This design allows you to quickly retrieve the mast of a model for the transport and quickly assemble at the site of exposure or storage.
-
Polishing for finish trim ... probably the most intelligent process, especially when a large ship model ...

Nils I found a very good brass pipes in the network. different diameters, good brass (LS 63) of the pipe body thickness of 1 mm. These pipes will be very necessary for the manufacture of ventilation ducts and other parts. He spent almost 200 euros. However, I had to buy three times more than necessary. Diller sells pipe only 3 meters long! I had to buy more than is necessary. http://olx.ua/obyavlenie/truba-latunnaya-8h1-10h2-12h3-16h1-19h1-22h1-l63-l68-l90-l96-IDjwSAV.html#c657a4385f

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.
