    Hi Bob, a very nice work.

    Hello there, thanks for the nice comments. That makes me happy. Original the tholes were made of wrought iron. For the model I made this in brass. The last picture shows the sloop in its future position.

    Hello, Carl and Greg, Here are the next attempts .... :D The nailing I made with holes diameter 0.5 mm. The filling is made of furniture wax. Before I put the parts in the sloop I have it coated with "Ballenmattierung".

    Hello Dirk, do not worry, I am not bored ... Hello Joe, Carl and Mark I am very pleased about your nice comments, thanks! Here is a small update:

    Hi Mik, thank´s for your nice comment. Here are a few new images to build the sloop (chaloupe). The anchor davit (to laying out anchor LINK ) on the stern of the boat is constructed somewhat complex. For this detail the documents from J. Boudriot were not sufficient. Therefore, I oriented myself on Atrlas du Genie Maritime.

    Hello, thanks for the nice comments. The finished rudder looks like this.
  14. archjofo
    Here is the continuation of my report is to build the chaloupe: The rudder for the sloop I made of two parts, as in the original. The fittings I make of brass. The rudder was designed to insert and remove, for example, when the boat was stowed on the ship. Please look to the images. I hope that they like.

    Hi Nils, good job!

    Hello, this positive feedback is a great pleasure again and again. Thank you very much. Today I'll show you a few small steps forward to build the sloop. Particularly, I would point to the wooden supports for the swivel guns. For landing missions the sloop could carry 4 swivel guns. ...to be continued

    Hello, here I show more details for the construction of chaloupe. The last three images reveal the current build status. I hope you like it.
  20. archjofo
    Oh Sorry. I will remove the duplicate report.
  21. archjofo
    Hello, first of all I would like to thank you all for your encouragement. Currently I'm still working on the interior finishing of the chaloupe. Before I make the parts in wood, I make stencils out of cardboard.

    Hi Dan, Congratulations for the fantastic model and Thanks for the detailed reporting.

    Hello Doris, a fine collection of ship models that you have created in the course of your life. I admire your artistic style and precision with which you build your excellent models. I hope that you will show us a lot more of your art.

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
