  1. I wanted to find a less complex explanation of the drawing process and have made a crude attempt at the fore part plan without reconstructing the controlling rising lines, just by trying to use the least complex graphical means. The floor curve appears to have a 100 inch radius, then it stops to touch the frame.
  2. Hello, I came across this thread and found it quite intriguing. I was hoping to gather your thoughts on a potential connection with the ship model located in the Maritime Museum in Sweden, which is attributed to Francis Sheldon. Sheldon was known for his involvement in the construction of London before relocating to Sweden. It's worth mentioning that the dimensions of London and Sheldon's model are quite similar. Apparently, the lines of the model were measured back in the 1930s, but I am uncertain about the accuracy of the plan. Although, it might be useful to examine the underwater part, as it appears to be very round. You can find the plans here: https://digitaltmuseum.se/011024828744/ritning and https://digitaltmuseum.se/011024828745/ritning I've learned that there have been two attempts in recent years to measure or create a 3D reconstruction of the model. One was done by Dr. Kroum Batchvarov, and I would love to learn more about his research in this area. Additionally, a 3D scan was done in 2022 and is yet to be made public.
