Looks good Chris. Can't wait to see this beauty again in Duizel

maggsl_01 · September 1, 2015

Frank nice job.

I think I am going to save your buildlog for future use once I am workinh on the sails

cristikc · August 11, 2015

finally started with the rigging. first the standing rig.

I am not so familiar with the English terms for the rigging, so I will show mostly pictures with small comments

fmodajr · July 12, 2015

I finally managed to have some time in my workshop to proceed

the main and foremast are ready now, waiting for the loading tackels and shrouds.

I also prepared a tool to be used for finalizing the ropes on the blocks.

I will show some details in practice later on.

Again no words for your build.

marktiedens · June 22, 2015

Thanks Mark,

I will start study these topics. I hoped that the book Vasa II would be ready earlier, but I understood that Fred Hocker is busy with other things

I am also searching now a good translation in the English terms vs the Dutch terms and I will also verify this information in copies of old Dutch books

This will become my Summer school :dancetl6:

Hi Mark,

Just a quick question, do you have a link with the discussions with Fred and Clayton concerning the rigging, as I am now preparing for the rigging of my Corel Vasa.

Thanks

cog · May 25, 2015

started with the rigging finally

toolbox for the rigging

Correct Frank, rotating the model increases the change of unwanted damage.

I have seen this turntable somewhere else on a forum and noted that I had also one which was used for our old Television.

md1400cs · May 13, 2015

finally a restart.

made a turnable table with the Vasa fixed on

it is possible now to turn the Vasa to each position.

Lin Feng · February 23, 2015

Temporary workshop during the modelbuilding show last weekend

in between several interesting talks with visitors I prepared some block for the platforms

and mounted them for the foremast and mainmast

and some blocks mounted on the masts

coming period I will not post a lot, due to other jobs in the house (painting etc

)

February 23, 2015

Good job done Karl.

This is an good example how to finalize a poorly build model.

February 15, 2015

for my followers in the Netherlands and Belgium:

the Vasa can be seen on the modelbuilding show in Goes on 21 and 22 February.

GuntherMT · January 25, 2015

the masts are fixed now

the coming months will be a slow build due to some big modifications in my house (new windows in the bed-rooms)

Karleop · January 10, 2015

today finalized the canons

next step will be checking the drawings for forgotten items before I start with the masts

fmodajr · December 31, 2014

All the best for all my followers in 2015

WackoWolf · December 29, 2014

First of all thanks for all the likes

a quick update of the canons mounted

in the next step I will glue the other line on the canon and glue a separate roll of rope besides.

NAZGÛL · December 26, 2014

started with the fixations of the canons, first rigged the small blocks

then fixed these blocks to the canons

using some glue to fixed the black eyes in the wall

after that fixed the canon with some glue

later on the other side of the ship and then make all loose ends correct.

GuntherMT · December 6, 2014

a dry-fit for the canons

and already the blocks prepared

NAZGÛL · November 23, 2014

slowly further with the canons

the mounting of the canons has to wait till Christmas Holiday period (2 weeks off then

)

NAZGÛL · November 4, 2014

I agree that rigging is an intersting part of the build. Specially when you understand the use/function of eaxh line. I myself had some experience in sailing old sailinhboats from the beginning if the last century and this helps a lot

md1400cs · October 27, 2014

Looks very nice - I hope you can get them off the tape without chipping the paint. .

/Mark

I have used the same method, and the lions coudl be released from the tape without any problem (after approximately one week after finishing the yellow colour)

October 26, 2014

This lools great. I am also planning to add this railing.

Are you keeping this removable till rigging is completed as I expect that this will be very fragile during rigging

October 25, 2014

I do not know the bb drawings in detail but I added an extra gunport
