Rustyj got a reaction from FrankWouts in Sloop Speedwell 1752 by Rustyj - Syren Ship Model Company - 1:32 Scale - POF Sloop
I've continued to install the frames. So far, I have placed all the tall frames from 3a to Hf. There are still 4 short frames to go. I clipped the template used to align the frames just so you can get the idea of how it's used. Once the 4 remaining short frames are placed, I will start adding the rest of the sweep port and gun port pieces. I'll continue to use the template to keep everything where it is supposed to be.
Hopefully I'm not jinxing myself, but the design, instructions and quality of the cutting has made everything go together very well.

Thanks Glenn, Yes Chuck has created an exceptional way of doing the framing. Just trying hard not to mess it up.
Thanks JJ. Forced is a good way of saying it.

I had mentioned earlier I had a medical issue that needed to be addressed. I met with the doctor and the
good news is I've been given a clean bill of health.
The bad news is I've been given a clean bill of health and have to return to work! 🤣
Work will slow considerably now. 😢
And the adventure continues,
I've now set 7 "tall" frames and 4 "short" frames. I've also added 2 sweep ports and 2 gun port sills on each side.
I used the supplied template to ensure that the spacing and height is correct.
As Mike mentioned earlier toothpicks were used on the jig for minor adjustments to fine tune the frame spacing.
My plan is to now add all the forward tall and short frames. I'll then use the template to adjust them to their correct position.
Once I confirm they are placed correctly, I'll start adding the sweep port blanks and the gun port sills.

I'm continuing to raise some frames while cleaning and assembling other frames.
Here are five "tall frames in place with the two "short" frames waiting their turn.
You'll notice the blocks for the sweep ports there too.
The two short frames have now been added and the sweep port blocks have been roughly shaped. More fine tuning is needed.
I'm also checking the frame locations with the supplied templates and my height gauge to check the sweep port and gun port locations.

Rustyj reacted to Chuck in Syren Ship Model Company News, Updates and Info.....(part 2)
Singles are now starting to be added as "in stock" in my online store. Doubles will follow early next week. I think you guys will really, really like the price. So much cheaper than nearly $9 per package for cnc blocks. I hope this makes for an affordable option and they are really terrific looking blocks. I hope you guys give them a try. I am going for a slightly darker "English Boxwood" color on these as I know most dont like the very light blocks on a model. I hope you will be pleased.

Deadeye test in the "English Boxwood" color along with a test of fiddle blocks and shoulder blocks. Keep in mind these pics are just taken with my phone. They look pretty good in reality.

Thanks Chuck. Sorry to waste your time. I’ve located a bunch of parts that I cleverly squirled away in a place I’d never find. I think I’m good on the organization of parts.
