  1. Hi Carl, the length is 50 cm and the diameter is about 18 mm. This works so far quite well until the part is round. The conical shape I produce by grinding.
  2. Hello, many thanks for all replies and likes! There was some time quiet in the model shipyard. Now I have started building the lower masts. According to the original I build the lower masts from individual parts. At least I try. Whether it works, will show. For this purpose, I have drawn up a simplified scheme. In the following I show a first attempt. Here I show the assembly of the main mast. And here I begin with the turning and grinding of the main mast. Continued coming soon ....
  3. Hello, many thanks for the nice comments and the LIKES. I still make and assemble the chain plates. Here I will briefly demonstrate the assembly of the chain plates. The correct length is determined as follows.
  4. Hello, many thanks for the nice comments and for the LIKES. I am still working on the assembly of the chain plates.
  5. Hi Mark, your model looks great. All the best for the "Admiral"!
  6. Hello Pawel, I am always excited about your work.
  7. Hello Albert, I always like your fantastic work. At some point I have to try it.
  8. Hello Ciampiero, I see your last work and am thrilled. The stern of the ship looks excellent and perfectly built. The beautiful details I admire. And the boat will also be a work of art.
  9. Hello Pawel, this is an excellent performance!!! I am always thrilled.
  10. Hello, thanks for the positive feedback. I'm still busy with the chain plates. Here are some pictures of the current state of the model building:
  11. Hello Mike, Jose, Albert and Ed, Thank you for your interest and the nice words. Many thanks also to the others for the LIKEs. Meanwhile, I made the different chainplate types. The next picture shows an already assembled chainplate.
  12. Today I show bending aids for the production of chainplates. A complete chainplate I have made in advance to see how it works. Since the deadeyes have different diameters, the chainplates are also made with different wire thicknesses, namely 0.7 mm, 0.6 mm and 0.4 mm brass wire.
  13. Here I demonstrate the difference between the grinded and the not grinded holes of deadeyes. It is clearly recognizable. In this way, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
  14. Perfect and impressive work ! I love to see this wonderful model grow to a perfect example of such a model of an extreme clipper and bringing it to a perfect illusion, thank`s for that Ed !
  15. ... Oh god ... what a pleasure, to watch the blog....
  16. Here is a picture of the steering wheel. I do not know exactly what you mean. I hope it is the right one.
