  1. Manufacture of the cannon barrels. Instead of the tin casting process, this time I used casting powder. Advantage ower tin casting , considerably cheaper and enormus weight reduction at this 1/24 scale. Karl
  2. Thanks for the kind comments. Part 2 Location of the gunports determined, I moved the gun ports of the second deck a little inside, the height of the gun deck is determined, the framework is planked on both sides, the deck beam of the first gun deck filted loosely. Karl
  3. Hello modeling friends. Animated by the pictures by Gregory Franchetti and the drawing by Jean Boudriot, I try to build the three gun decks as a cross-sectional model on a scale 1/24. First, I made an auxiliary construction four the mounting and alignment of the frames, to strengthen them, the bar timbers and the deck beam girdes were installed, the first gundeck was planked. The whole now has the required stability for the further interior design. Karl (Google Translator)

  9. Hello Alan. French naval cannons in the 18th century were so rigged. The thick (red marked) rope in picture 1 caught the recoil of the cannon with the mount. Mark commented that correctly. Thanks a lot for this. regards Karl
