  1. Hi Wladimir, that will be excellent, please tell me what do I need to do, thanks, saludos, LFG
  2. Hi Gentlemen, will be feasible to obtain a copy of this laser cut pieces? Will help a lot in my upcoming Staghound project.
  3. Hi, congratulations, at the scale that you are working achieve this level of realism and detail is a major achievement. Looking fwd, are the hull plans ready?
  4. Hi, may be that this reference can be useful, browsing in the WEB I found these very detailed plans for the Flying Fish, done by Mr. Bradner, in particular this of the bulkwarks, It shows the ventilations pipes allocation. Also one specific on the ventilators. Probably will be easy to find it in the web. Flying_Cloud_Bradner_bulwarks.pdf Flying_Cloud_deck_ventilators.pdf
  5. Als o, I try to compare the lines of the several references, pls forgive my poor use of digital tools. The lines are those of the Monthly Nautical Magazine, Chapelle, & Crotters. More or less the lines somehow coincide.
  6. Also, in the Crothers book there is a midship section, in this picture is overlapped on the hull lines:
  7. Hi Rob: Congratulations for this new exiting project. I have been also looking at it, but no ready yet to start the woodworking. Adding some pictures and my initial drawings..
  8. Thanks for your advice and support, let me start another thread for the Staghound and try to dig & research, and of course, interexchange opinions, you all know that any of this project is a long run, so in the mean time lets see what we can find.
  9. This drawing? do you know the source? There is any clue about bow the decoration?
  10. Excellent!! seriously look ing into "Staghound" , it seems to me that is like a "conceptual ship" that set the foundation for the upcoming McKay successful ships.
  11. Many thanks again, what a nice picture of Sir Lancelot. Its interesting that depicts white masts and also white cabins, deck arrangements are the ones of the Sir Lancelot, also depicts davits, davits appear in some representations and models and by example Mr. McNarry does not include davits in its models. There is a beautiful model of the Red Jacket by Donald McNarry, very handsome ship, will check also the WILD PIGEON. About the Stephen D. Hopkins book "Red Jacket" I have been looking but it is not available anywhere, so Mr. ClipperFan if you have some scans I will appreciate a lot if you can share it with us. By the way, did you know that here in Chile we have still afloat the ship " Huascar" commissioned by the Peruvian Navy in 1864 to Lairs Brothers, Birkenhead, England. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huáscar_(ironclad) https://huascar.cl/ Thanks Again. Saludos from Chile, LFG.
  12. Many thanks for your recommendations and support. I will start studying the material that I already have plus the books that will arrive soon. Anyway, this is not a decision that will be taken in the short term, I need to recover the enthusiasm after the last "pandemic" sprint that was required to complete Sir Lancelot". In relation to the Stephen D. Hopkins book, Red Jacket let me see if I can find a used copy somewhere, I really like to go over these books, help me to dream about being on board this magnificent hand-made machines that combine 0 emissions with outstanding beauty.
  13. Hi, thanks again, just order the Chapelle´s books, will arrive first or second week of Oct. Will see what I can find on the NRG. Saludos from Chile, LFG.
