Rustyj got a reaction from FrankWouts in Sloop Speedwell 1752 by Rustyj - Syren Ship Model Company - 1:32 Scale - POF Sloop
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.

Rusty, very happy that you’re better. Your Speedwell is looking great. Mine is stalled at the moment, work has been a bear and family has been demanding a lot of time. The notches on the bottom of my frames are pretty clean, so it looks like I’ll have to deepen them a little. Not a big deal and all part of the process. Keep plugging away!
Best Regards …. Rick

There are only about 5 of these frames that are permanently attached. Some still need final adjustments.
Chuck's jig system is pretty fool proof, some adjustment is needed. Not alot.
On to working on the sweep ports/port sills.

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.
