    Thanks very much for the likes and comments. You are right, Greg. I have to sand this later down. I don't find a way to do this with my small mill and chisels. There's much more to sand down. I'am not sure what is more complicated, the stem ore the stern deadwood. I think the stern, because there are a lot of different steps to do and you have to think about every step, before you start. I made me a small list of all single steps and hope I've nothing forgotten.

    Next step is the after deadwood. I made the components of different strong woods, to make the shapeing later easier. The center line was marked with small stencils and a small 1.5mm drill bit was used to set holes for small pins. The following photo shows the alignment of the lower part on the keel. All components are put temporarily together Before the components van be glued together, the upper Notches for the last parallel frames must be milled. After assembly, the deadwood is supported from the back with small wood pieces to have a smooth and, above all, stable support during milling: As final step the template will be cut out: The last picture shows the deadwood after milling the starbord site Next step will be the port side.

    Fantastic results of a very unorthodox method. Isn't there a big risc to damage the planking during the demolitian of the internal structure. It would be very interesting if you could give us more information about your method.

    Very fine cutting by hand. I've allways problems with doing this job manually

    After a Long time I can Show new Progress of the build of my Sloop. After the stem I started building the lower and upper apron. Especially the lower apron, was really difficult. I need three trys until I get an result which I decided to use for my build. I think that I wouldn't get it better. I accent all glueing joints with brown color. After finishing the stem looks as in the following picture: David Shows in his book a simplified method for Building the rising woodI decided to follow the more detailed way, because I have a very precise Position of every second Frame. I think that this will help me in the future. I used this simple dummy frame during the build for checking the wide of the notches Next step will be the after deadwood.

    Absolut fantastic

    As allways, very intersting videos of your build

    Gary, you are at the beginning of a very long journey. I think it will be a good idea to notice your thoughts about the appearance of the finished model, but it is not necessary to finish this thoughts in the moment. I am working a little bit longer on my model, but I am in a similar stage. I decided to notice what I linke to show and finalize these thoughts after completing the framing. One of my ideas is to show also the ship boats. But I haven't decide how. Stored, Beside the model or in a small scene with the real ship... One good idea is to have a look in the different building logs on MSW, see what other modelers did and decide if you like the appearance.

    Looks really nice, Tony

    Welcome on the Swan Class shipyards. If you can see in my signature I am also working on a model. I decided to build HMS Fly, because I like the painted friezes. I will follow your log with interest

    Welcome to the Triton shipyards

    @Aviaamator perhaps it has something to do with your inter net connection. I am on holiday and have a slow connection. So I had also a little bit trouble to view the video. If I am back at home I will view it again.
