Fantastic work! -
Thanks Sam, for your nice comment, and everyone else for the LIKES. In addition to the rigging for the cannons, I also represent the apron of lead. This apron was designed so that it has covered the entire gunlock of the cannon.

Hello, It still needs to be clarified how the gun tackles are stowed. There are two ways to do this: version 1 version 2 The version 2 I consider the more authentic version. It also corresponds to the Paris model LINK and the illustrations from the book "Aide mémoire d 'artillerie navale 1850" LINK.

@albert Hello Albert, I am particularly pleased about your statement, because it comes from an outstanding modeler. I hope I always explain it reasonably understandable, as I do not speak English very well.

@vossiewulf Hello, completely correct. The first picture shows a master model. Overall, I have made four of them. This will reduce the mold cost. The length of this part is 2.8 mm, without pin. In relation to the individual production, it is not too expensive. Nine castes each 4 parts (36 parts) cost including shipping 36 €. Here is a LINK to a German jewelry foundry, just for example. I think there will be this in every country.

@Bob Cleek Thanks for your contribution. And here is the sequel to the gun tackle. In the meantime, the eight pieces were made for the 18-pounders. Then the breeching ropes are attached to the guns.

Hello Michael, this is a fine woodwork, as we know it from you.

@luc Hi Luc, sorry, only today I come to answer your questions: The etched parts I have made here: LINK But I have previously drawn an etching template. Unfortunately I do not have a tutorial. First of all, I made four original brass parts for the brass castings. I sent these prototypes to a jewelery foundry, which then made molds and then casts. I hope that I have explained it understandably. I am happy to answer further questions.

@luc Hi Luc, I would also like to thank you for the compliment. Yes, I use instant glue (cyanoacrylate).
-
@Dowmer Thanks for the nice comment. The hooks I've done so: I hope the picture show that.
-
Again sorry, for the misunderstanding on my part. Thank you for your recognition. For the final finish of the guns, I have to give me some thoughts.

@albert Hello, Thank you for the interest and the nice comment. Thank you also for all the LIKES. Here is a little update: The gun tackles consist of a single and a double block. The length amounts to the original 234 mm and 4.875 mm in the scale 1:48.

Hello, before I continue with the rigging, I have to rig the 18 pounders and then place them on the deck. The blocks and hooks I have made some time ago.

Hello Carl and Thomas, it is always a pleasure to receive such positive feedback.

@shipmodel Hello Dan, thank you for the interest. I will leave the pendants like this. Your note, I will consider when it comes time. Thanks for that.
-
@vossiewulf Hello, of course you are right. Looks really not special. I noticed only after your notice. Will pay attention in the future ... 😡

@michael mott Hello Micheal, today I took a picture of the spool traveler. This runs on the lower axis. I hope that your question has been answered. @Dziadeczek Hello Dziadeczek, in fact, the spool traveler rests on the axis. In the following picture you can see how I worming the rope. This works very well with the serving machine.
-
Hello, thank you for your interesting discussion on the design of models. it is perfectly legitimate to express different views. In the meantime, I have worked a bit further and made the standing parts for the lower main tackles.

Hello Albert, it is admirable with what patience you make this framework. With the meticulousness of how you do that, it will be an absolute top model ship.
