Somehow I twisted my hull
Isaiah replied to CJensen's topic in Building, Framing, Planking and plating a ships hull and deck
Thanks! Sadly I have moved and had to sell most of it. I’ve only got my ship modelling tools now. -

Somehow I twisted my hull
Isaiah replied to CJensen's topic in Building, Framing, Planking and plating a ships hull and deck
I’m am also building the Sherbourne. I found when I added the false deck piece I didn’t make the fit loose enough. As a result it twisted the frames. I’m not sure if that’s what caused your twist but I thought I’d share. This was the only way I could think of to fix the twist. While glue around all the frames was drying, I held the ship in the vice. I clamped one end and added tension to the rope. Rough, I know, but it worked. I don’t think you’ll be able to use the same method as I did as you already have planks on, unless you take all the planks off which may not be an option. -

Log #15: Bulwarks and Wales Pt 2 Inner Bulwarks and spirketting patterns in place. Bulwarks and gun ports are filed flush. I have also weathered/ painted all timber surfaces which looks much better in my opinion.

I haven’t been on MSW that much and had no idea you were building this. All the best with the rest of the build, I’ll be following along. Have you made any progress on your Devin Collins?

About the NRG
If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.
The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
