Jaager got a reaction from MCan in Ultimation tools
Might this tool help with getting a uniform thickness?

Jaager got a reaction from hamilton in bolting frames onto keel
From the above, I would bolt the keelson to every timber. With a bolt already in every other timber a pattern that avoids having the keelson bolts and existing timber bolts on different tracks is needed. A "Z" with the hole 4" in from the edge of the keelson and since the floors are sided 11" ( 11/3= 3 2/3") about 3.5" in from the edge of the floor. The next timber would be a mirror. The floor bolts having the same pattern - staggered by one timber - but since it not visible, the floor to keel bolts can be skipped.

1. You do not make it easy when not identifying the class and year of Echo.
2. If you are at all serious about 18th C. RN vessels and aim at authenticity you should own a copy of Yedlinsky.
18 gun sloop of war:
Floor timber : Every other floor timber to be bolted through the main keel - bolt dia. = 1"
Keelson : To be square = 12" x 12"
exclusive of what is let down between the floors which may be = 7/8"
Scarphs in length = 4' 6"
The keelson bolts should be driven through and carefully clenched on the underside of the main keel dia. = 1"
Excepting where the rabbet for the plank is taken out in the middle. There, they come through and clench on the underside of the keel that is coaked to the main keel.

Working from a fixed inventory, I am not surprised that Donna may have depleted Model Machines inventory. You may wish to try email and see what is left that you want by contacting Donna.
Malco seems to offer single blade purchase on these pages:

Martindale may be a possibility -they seem to want to talk first- but you will need a 1" to 1/2" arbor adapter bushing. Even way back when it was Jarmac and Dremel as 4" table saw and ordering was snail mail and checks - their blades were 1" arbor.

I did a Google search and found Temu.com and found low cost - no bets on the quality - 4" but their arbors are 20mm - I got that adapter bushing for the Diablo so I can do a trial - the prices are low enough to be worth the gamble. $16.00 for four different blades to sample.
The HSS blades with lots of teeth, thin kerf, have small gullets and no set to the teeth. Not a good tool for resawing stock of significant thickness. The carbides have "ouch" kerf thickness.

Jaager got a reaction from mtaylor in Free CAD program
A NURBS modeler is better for precise and predefined curves. For animation in a vertex based program - a NURBS model that is then converted to polys can be way too "heavy" to allow render times within a human's lifespan. Is there a free NURBS based program?

Jaager got a reaction from mtaylor in Cannons on the HMS Beagle
Marquardt shows 6 long guns - 4 x 6lb 2x9lb 1x 6lb boat carronade on a turning base - forecastle. 1x 4lb Howitzer
The 6 long guns were trussed and on the main deck. No sign of a location for the Howitzer - it may have been stored below until required for use in what stood for the main launch.
The long guns were clutter and mostly in the way. Once England was out of site, I would consider parking them in the hold were I having FitzRoy's job. Running them out would be pointless. Any locals who might physically object to the English trespassers would probably find the carronade to be a sufficient discouragement.
The U.S.Ex.Ex. used a gun to measure distance when mapping. The home ship would fire a gun, someone on a launch would use a stopwatch to measure the difference between the flash and the sound. The carronade would be perfect if Beagle used this method.

Jaager got a reaction from Chuck Seiler in rigging in front of yard arms?
Sails are not attached to yard arms. They are attached to yards. The arms are the sections at the end of the larger yards with a step down diameter.
Yardarms have popular notice because naval vessels attached the hangman's rope there for executions. A body hanging from a line at the yardarm would be over water, not the deck. The poo and **** would not foul the deck.
Running rigging from higher yards and sails in front a lower yard would impede that yard's ability to swing and pinch the sail.
It would no matter on a museum ship that is essentially a statue. It would require some special occasion for such a ship to even have enough manpower to set and furl even one sail - it seems to me.

Jaager reacted to SkiBee in Beginner looking for advice on first kit
40 years ago I started with a solid hull model and failed to get past step one. I've built a lot of plastic models but never went back to try a wood model, shaping a hull and the rigging intimidated me. A couple of years ago I decided to try my hand at wood models and saw an advertisement for Model Expo & Shipways models. I started with the Model Shipways 3 ship beginners set and they took me step by step and I learned a lot of skills and knowledge for a fair price. So much I tried my hand at a solid hull again and it's been successful so far.
I highly recommend the Model Shipways Shipwright 3 Kit Series. By the time you finish the 3rd boat, the Muscongus Bay Lobster Smack, you will have the skills to take on anything. They might be small and appear to be simple, but that's what you want in the beginning and to learn the basic skills, then try the other models.
