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.

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!

Hi Albert, excellent work - masterpieces! -
Hello, thanks for the nice comments. It always does well. I am still in producing the dead-eyes. Five of Eight of the different diameters for the dead-eyes are ready. Here are some pictures:

Hello, meanwhile, I have compiled an overview of all dead eyes for the La Creole. A total of 182 pieces with diameters from 6 mm to 2.3 mm.

@jose_b Hi, the last monograph by Mr. Delacroix to Le Rochefort would probably be a beautiful present for Christmas. A small ship, but with a lot of potential.

ancre Le François 1683 by jose_b - Scale 1:48
archjofo replied to jose_b's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1501 - 1750
Hello, That makes me happy that I have inspired you with my longboat for the La Creole. Your model from the Le François and the longboat are just great. -
Hello, for your interest a very warm thank you, and of course also for the LIKES. Drilling with the template has turned out to be inaccurate. Therefore, I now drill with a dividing head. Because I can make the holes exactly.

Hello, for the nice feedback I thank a lot. Regarding the question of deadeyes, whether round or pear-shaped, I follow the recommendation of G. Delacroix. Before the production I made a drawing. The basis for this was the Atlas du genie maritime and Atlas de Poulierie in 1855. To make the deadeyes I need a few tools as seen in the following picture.

Hi Albert, thanks for the nice words. The next detail I have made for the backstays. The lower blocks of Shifting backstays were fitted with a hook, which was engaged in a ring bolt on the Channel.This ring bolt has its own small chain plate. This part was there 3 times per ship side. Now to the production. I hope the pictures explain so far.
