  1. I had been a little intimidated by the cannons, I was unsure if I would be able to produce two similar cannons (still a newbie with the lathe). I turned them on my Sherline lathe out of brass and I'm pretty happy with how they came out. I also used the lathe to turn the Carriage Wheels with the grain running along the length of the wheel. The wheels took a couple of tries, I broke a few. Still need to blacken the cannon and add a few more parts to the carriage. Tony
  2. Been really slow going, but finally got around to adding these pictures. Finished the exterior planking and interior.
  3. Finally got around to getting some work done on the cross section. I have completed the gun deck and added the hatch coamings. I spent most of this morning on the lathe making tiny sheaves for the bits from brass. Tony
  4. Thanks Pete38, Small update, took a little beak from the deck to start the Sheet bitts. They are made from bloodwood. I decided to make them from multiple pieces in layers like plywood. Sorry, the pictures are in the wrong order. Thanks, Tony
  5. Thanks for the comment Bob, means a lot coming from a talented builder like yourself. I have fitted and glued all the major deck components and dry fitted it into the hull. This deck is coming along much nicer than the lower deck. I am more happy with my joint work this time around. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what would be on the lower deck in this section of the ship, cable tier? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Tony
