@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.

@Forlani daniel Hello Daniel, your crafting skills are simply admirable. An absolutely clean and flawless execution of the woodwork.

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.

HMS VICTORY 1765 by albert - 1/48
archjofo replied to albert's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
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. -
Hello, thank you for the active cooperation and the suggestion. I also think a darker lynard fits in more harmoniously.

Today I show you my second attempt for the shrouds. This time I used Gütermann silk yarn (left side). The lanyard are also made of silk yarn, but by Mettler. I will do more experiments.

Today I finally succeeded in uploading the pictures in my previous report.

Hello Michael, Paul, @deadbrotherbear, and @aviaamator, thank you for your interest and the nice comment. Also thanks to all for the LIKES. Here is a little update: I had completely forgotten the coppering of the mizzen mast in the upper area as protection for the jaw of the gaff. I remembered how I made the leather for the gaff. Another detail for the mizzen mast is a fitting for the topping lifts of the davits.

Hello, thin leather about 0.15 - 0.2 mm is not available. So you have to make thin leather even thinner. For this I have built a primitive device, as can be seen in the following picture. For example, the bobstays are served with leather. The thin leather, about 0.2 mm thick, can easily be glued around a rope after splitting, as shown in the next picture. The jaw of the gaff was lined on the inside with leather.

Hello Doris, the letters for the nameplate look fantastic again. Simply admirably beautiful!

@aviaamator Hi, if you follow the LINK, then you come to a page where many plans and drawings of 19th century French ships and equipment. Extremely interesting for modellers who deal with this era. You can download the plans.

@aviaamator Hi, a very clean frame. How long is the boat? Is this a "petit canot" You certainly know the drawings in the Atlas du Génie Maritime?
