Hello, Thank you for your interest and the LIKES. Here I show the continuation of the work for the mainstay and the main preventer stay (Grand ètai et faux ètai grand mât). First of all historical drawings for the execution of the detial can be seen. Quelle: Manuel du Gabier 1875 Quelle: Takelung und Ankerkunde – Freiher von Sterneck 1873 Afterward you will see the realization for the model.

Hello, many thanks for the comments and the LIKES ! It Always makes me happy. In the meantime I have completed the shrouds of the mainmast so far. They are lashed tight only when the stays are installed. The time I prepare the mainstay and the main preventer stay. The stays were all cable laid and it is wormed, as can be seen. Quelle: Musée de la Marine Paris – La Crèole Source: Musée de la Marine Paris – La Crèole Around 1830 the stay mouse disappeared. The stays split into two parts which each had an eye for a lashing. Source: Atlas du Genie maritime The mainstay and main preventer stay penetrated the foredeck and was fastened under it with strong eye bolts. These had iron counter-plates on the outside of the hull.

Hello, many thanks to you all for the LIKES. Currently I am still working on the shrouds of the mainmast. For this I show some pictures serving the shrouds and attaching of the dead eyes. Furthermore, you can see a comparsion with an original seizing Here are some pictures of the current status:

Hello Eberhard, that is very fine model making.In this scale with this precision to produce the details, deserves all respect.

Hello friends, thanks a lot for the nice comments and the LIKES. On my rope walk I made the shrouds as hawser laid rope. The dimensions for the shrouds I take from Information from the monograph by J. Bourdriot and made a list. The first shrouds on the main mast are set. It is important that the distance between the dead eyes is usually 2 x distance dead eyes.

Hi Steve and Hans Christian, thank you for your extremely nice comments. That does very well and motivates enormously. And I would like to thank all the others for the many LIKES. With a small detail it continues here. The catblock has a very large hook so that the anchor can be fished. Quelle: Tafel 212 des Atlas du Génie Maritime

The ropes for the hammock cranes have to be tensioned. I did that with tiny thimbles Ø 1,1 mm and lashings. The thimbles on the next image have the following diameter from left to right: Ø 1,1 mm Ø 2,2 mm Ø 2,6 mm The first attempts with seizings are not very nice. With a "fake splice" it looks better?

I follow the very impressive work with great interest and I'm looking forward to the sequel.

Admirable work! That excites me and is exemplary.

Hi Paul, thanks for the positive comment, and thanks to the others for the LIKES. The size of the blocks depends on the diameter of the rope, as stated by J. Boudriot. The production of the blocks, I do the following schema: Quelle: Musée de la Marine Paris – La Crèole
