Hello Shipmates.
 
Another update.. on the victory.
 
Quarter Deck is now planked and all tree nails and gun port hardware added.

 

 

 
View of side ..No sanding here until all planks are in place and tree nailed.

 
Quarter deck Timbers made up and ready to install.

 
Not all the timbers are glued together yet as will do this on assembly.

 
Getting to the part where adding the outer planking after this deck is planked and furniture is added.
Then trimming the two end faces.
 
All the gun woodwork parts are made and I have decided to remake the barrels.
 
That's about it for now..
 
Regards Antony.
 
 
 

Hello Shipmates. 
As promised a update with a few photos.
Have had a break from the ship.   The Elder Scrolls Online Beta and full game was released...Very cool game lots of bugs
Started working yesterday cutting the timbers for the Carling and Ledgers.
 
Working on the Topdeck at the moment. Carling and Ledgers are not fixed yet (glued).
 

 

 
View through the decks

 

 

 

 
Regards Antony.

Hi.
Two photos with the timber cut to length and coloured with Oil and dye.
 

 

 
Also have Backboard with section plan in place to check square and correct placement.
 
Regards Antony.

Hi.
Another step done.
A Photo with the ship on my 14 year old lads Wheelchair tray. for Yves.

 
Close up of the frames.

 
The timber cut and ready to put into place.

 
I will colour the timber before fitting (not sure yet on what colour/stain).
 
More as I progress.
Regards Antony.

Hi all.
Thanks for the welcome.
I will stop with a stub mast as the area for the display is max 1 metere square.
Might consider doing a drawing of the mainmast and the standing and running rigging if wanted.
I will take a photo today for you Yves. And post it tonight.
I will continue adding details into my drawings as I progress.
The deck plans will be next to be drawn.
If I have drawn in any errors then please tell me. No I won't growl at anyone
 
Regards Antony.

Hello.
I have been asked to construct a Model to show the inside of a Ship.
I have chosen to build the HMS Victory at a large scale of 1/36.90
Having got permission to use the plans from :-
http://www.mountainhaven.com/VictoryXCP/PDFbin/Frame_Sta_( .pdf
http://www.mountainhaven.com/VictoryXCP/PDFbin/Frame_Sta_0.pdf
http://www.mountainhaven.com/VictoryXCP/PDFbin/Frame_Sta_3.pdf
 
A previous topic regarding plans.
http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/2885-large-scale-cross-section-drawings/#entry79890
 
I have redrawn the plans and added bits and made the drawings slightley more accurate.
I am using adobe illustrator.
The nice thing about using Illustrator is that it is vector drawn so it can be scaled up to any size. I am printing mine on A1 this gives me the scale of 1:36.90
The construction of this model will consist of five frames on each side.
The Keel is make from mahogany.
This will have holes for pining the frame guides.


And the Garboard plank cutout. And false copper pins/rivets.




The two frame guides are fixed to the keel.
The frames are inserted into the frame guides and jig'ed to hold them at the correct shape and distance.


I have also included the curvature of the hull into the model.
The clamping blocks have a curve in to allow for the hull curvature.
The clamping blocks will remain in place until I need to remove them for planking.
The dummy frames will be added to the ends of the hull.
I will use 4mm basswood for the dummy frames.


Next I will plank the exterior.
Then its building up the deck by deck.

Some of the timber preped for use.

I will Add the drawings after I have as I compleated them.
 
Started the build as you can see in the photos .
Have now got to add the Dummey frames.
 
Regards Antony.

If I can remember how to put the pic in order .
I have made repairs from bad docking procedures. But I keep for getting there are two sides to look at and this is the bad side of the bow.
Dumb me I figured out the garboard dimensions. Hopefully when all the clamps com off there will be a straight line.

Ray......I'm still here in the shipyard , just got the Admiral's new flagship to fix up for her, so its going to be slow motion work on the cross section for awhile! 
 
AL

Hey Buddy,
I thought you were down for the count and taking a break. Now that I know the Admiral gave a command, it is quite understandable. Speaking of Admirals, mine just gave the command that we are going shopping this weekend. Please pray for us sinners. LOL.

Finally got those last 3 cannons painted!!! Been working on the Admirals newly acquired used flagship ( 1995 Ford Aerostar mini van ) and had to sneak in the paint job while taking a break from it.... LOL  She says I've done such a nice job on her flagship that I may get a promotion out of it..... LOL

I think Tim nailed it.  Looks like the view of the keel, false keel, and sternpost as seen from the stern.

1st thought and it might be wrong but I think that it is an end view of the part of the right showing size and shape. Note how high it is and the part to the right.

Hi David,
 
I use normal wood glue from "Clou" and thank you very much
When all the parts are glued together and the glue is still wet, I loop everything so that all gaps be filled with wood glue and sanding dust. I've had good experiences to do it this way

A little progress on the gabare
 

 
Here you can see the Sternpost, false Sternpost, inner Sternpost, Sternpost knee and a filling piece under the Sternpost knee and last but not least the keel. The false keel is not on the picture but it is ready build
 

 
then I glued everything
 

 
and here on the helling

May the "Song" be with you whatever way you go.
 
All of the above pics look great.

Greetings to all,
I’ve finally completed the standing and running rigging for my Triton. I added the truss pendant, nave line, and another pin rail on the QD rail and the top’s rail. I still have to dress up the lines a bit. I also have to add the other components together in order to say my build is complete. These items include, ballast, barrels, ½ boat, crates, spare timber, and lines. Upon completion of my Triton I’ll move ahead and construct a display case for it. The following photos will show you how she looks so far.   

Amazing what primer & paint can hide......

Very Nice. Well Done.
