Hallo modeller_masa.
 

Wow, coming from a complete beginner like myself this looks incredible.
 
I’m sure this takes some serious dedication and skill. Looking forward to seeing the rest.

Nice results so far!

Hello modeling friends.
The model is planed according to the plan drawings of Gerard Delacroix, Le Fleuron 1729.
Scale: 1/60, Wood: Elsbeere (Sorbus torminalis).
I will build the model as "La Charpente", as shown in picture 0.01.
i.e. only the carpentry / joinnery,
without interior fittings and carving of the exterior.

Hello,
it is done!
The interior of the fore castle is ready. But first I had to build the 26 12 pdr ready and some smaller things, like the ashtrays for the ovens and the fire place.

Hello,
today the carpenters build in the waterways, the planking and the final edge of the deck. The painter is just ready with his job.

Hi Bob,
Thanks for the positive affirmation.

I would also like to thank you for the many LIKES.
 
Continued: Equipment of the big yard - Blocks for buntlines and clewlines - Poulies de cargue fond et poulies de bouline
According to the relevant table in the monograph, the blocks for the buntlines and clewlines are only 3.4 mm long and 1.3 mm thick at a scale of 1:48. With this block size, the sheaves with a thickness of d= 0.5 mm are not used separately, but worked out. In total I need 12 blocks for the main yard and fore yard.
Before I start "series production", I made a "prototype" in the usual way and equipped it with a served strop. The eye is used to attach to the jackstay.

 
In the following image I have shown different block types and sizes compared to a block for a buntlines.

The next picture shows how these blocks are attached to the jackstay by means of tying.

Sequel follows …

Hello,
Thank you for your positive comment.
I would like to thank the others for the LIKES.
 
Continued: Main yard equipment and others - Footropes and stirrups - Marchepieds et étriers - etc.
The blocks for the La Créole's braces were attached directly to the yard arms by strop. The connection of the blocks for the braces with the thimble sling was called "Dog and Bitch".


In addition to the strops for the braces, strops for the yard tackles also had to be considered, as can be seen in the following picture.


The yard tackles were then only attached when needed. In connection with the stay tackles, e.g. B. the boats are loaded and unloaded. The next picture shows the main yard with the newly installed rigging elements. For the lower yards, this corvette had simple yard lifts with a diameter of 30 mm, which went over blocks hooked into the tops for belaying on deck. The yard arms are now fully occupied. The footropes and stirrups that have already been attached still have to be properly lashed down in the middle of the frame.


I still have to clarify in detail to what extent these lanyards can still be lashed over the sling of the lower yard, as shown in the following drawing by Nares. Unfortunately I don't have a meaningful picture of the original model.

Source: Traité de manoeuvre et de matelotage, George S. Nares, 1868
 
The attachment of a stirrup to the jackstay can be seen in the next detailed pictures.



Finally a picture of the middle of the yard.


Except for the blocks for the clewlines and buntlines and the professional attachment of the stunsail booms, the main yard should then be fully equipped.
I would not have thought that so many rigging elements would have to be attached to a yard. I learned a lot from the research I did on the internet and relevant specialist literature. In the lower yards that follow, the production of the equipment should be all the faster. For the topsail, topgallant and royal yards, on the other hand, some detailed information is required that still needs to be obtained.

Why do you prefer pearwood?
Pearwood is one of the ideal woods to carve. It has a low price, is easy to get and has a very nice color. For me the ideal wood. I love it.
