Absolut wonderful progress Nils. Your model is fantastic. Sometimes, especially at the bridge, the color is in my opinion a little bit thick, but it looks together with the other parts of your model absolut great.

The last part of the backbone is the Stern, consisting of the Inner Post and the Stern Post. I build a small jig to adapt the Stem to the Deadwood: For fixing the Stern on the Deadwood I use small brass pins. At the keel I used a simplified tenon joint: Next I milled the scores for the transoms and the rudder hinges: The last picture shows the nearly finished port side of the arrangement. I lost a little the sharp edge of the rabbet, but don't think that I can do it better. So I will live with it. After finishing the starbordside and glueing the complete arrangement together, I will final sand the everything. The two parts of the stern are real tricky and so I am very happy if I can fnish this part. Greg has spllitted his stern post in two part. If I have to do this part another time, I think I will follow this way. The rabbet at the transoms is than a littlebit simplified, but I think his way makes life much simpler.

Nice to see you back in your shipyard. -
Kenny, congratulations for finishing such a beautyful section model. It made me a lot of fun to follow your build log in the past month. Will you know start the full hull build? And it made me again very sad and angry that it was necessary for the Board Admirality to stop this beautyful community project.

1/12 for a Swan Class Sloop would be a dream. 1/32 is the biggest scale which is possible for me. Fully rigged the model would be 5 feet long and around 3 feet height. I own Alexanders drawings for HMS Anson and think if it is possible to build a hull model with all frames in 1/32. But this is a project if I am retired because a lot of time and much more experience than I have is necessary.

Mark, is ist right, that on French ships thy don't use the 3 But Shift or 4 But Shift System for the planking sheme? If they use it, you have to change the ends of the planks in your last picture.

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.
