Mau got a reaction from HB17 in Le Gros Ventre - Gabare du Roi 1776 by cpt. Tom - 1/48 Scale May 9, 2021

Hi Tom, I started the construction of Les Gros Ventre about an year and a half but I have not started my scratch build log yet. As I live in Brazil, I have to mill my own wood, and It takes time and money (a lot!) because I had to buy the machines for the job. They are all from PROXXON. I'm using a wood called Peroba Rosa, and I'm still building the frames. I hope we can share our experiences, although I'm not a expert. First of all, be careful about the lenght of the pieces "f" and "d". In plates 1 and 4 they are longer than in plates 8, 15 and 23 (which are the proper length).

Regards

Guys, do you know why there is a frame number (3)? Is It the same frame 3? What are the numbers of the frames next to zero?

Hi Mike, I'm a little late, just now I've been able to see all of your log. Great job! Congratulations!!
I have a question: How did you calculate the amount of wood needed? Is there a simple rule or do you calculate by the plans? Like 3 boards of 3", 4 boards of 6", etc.?

Hi Gaetan,

Viewing the pieces on 1/24 is very enlightening. And I especially like when the photos are taken at the time of making.
Perfect !!
