Thank you, Daniel!
this monograph is done really well, with excellent plans and details.
It does not seem to be a ship hard to do, but it's my first job in admiralty construction....... -
Hello Gianpiero,
You're off to a great start. Beautiful work.
And thanks for the detailed pictures.
I hope you don't mind me following along quietly to watch, enjoy and learn.
With a scale of 1:30 it's a big ship. What are her measurements?
Good luck with your build.
Anja
Thank you for your appreciation, I'm very glad for it!
its measures I don't remember perfectly but it is about 1,20 m.

After breathing a sigh of relief noting that the keel has remained perfectly straight, I started the hard work of balancing the exterior of the structure; to do this I'm using the scrapers that, once sharp, working a beauty! Throughout the morning for half of the hull and is not finished yet, in return, my left arm began to creak ..........

I then embarked on a jogger on the shores of the bow: I must say that I was quite surprised because there is not much to equalize!
I used some self-built tools but the work is much better with the scraper, in particular, I used the curvilinear;
In the picture you can see the treated part, darker;
the test with a strip has confirmed that so far seems to have done a good job!I started to enclose the ship in the upper part of the oarlocks.
Perhaps the method I used is not exactly orthodox, but it is really effective and clean and the whole thing is tight.- DmitriyMarkov, fatih79, Bluto 1790 and 8 others

I started to fix the double ribs to the keel permanently.
I wanted, for convenience, to starting with the masters quarters and then join with those already established at bow and stern.
For greater security gluing I used the double coasts of steel nails nailing the madiere the keel after having done a 1mm hole in the center.
After checking the squareness of the coasts, I fixed the spacers on the size of mesh on the template of the site helping with rubber bands (made from under the template) to adhere the coasts of the template itself.
I have to say that already so the coasts do not move except in the upper parts of the oarlocks, but this will solve when I put the studs.
For the moment I want to fix all the coasts, then I will proceed with the keys at the heads of the floor plates. -

dry test graft: a few minor tweaks and I should be there
In the dead time of the various bonding took the opportunity to drill the hole for the tree bowsprit:

I fixed the fins to the massive stern

Some time ago, intrigued by the new monograph by Delacroix I ordered a copy of this Corvette
I started to study a little the plans and I want to try to build it.
I decided, before setting up his yard, to work to one of the most difficult to escape unscathed (at least for me) in carpentry construction: the oarlocks hawse.
The basic idea is to build the hull in pear and the topsides above the waterline, ebony for the stem and stern.The first step was to build the first rib:
To get the right angle for different oarlocks I helped with an iPhone app that acts as inclinometer with whom I adjusted the angle of the grip in which I placed a swivel base for processing the milling machine
To avoid damaging the stem during the processing of the oarlocks, I built a wheel that will be provisionally removed when will I get the two "shells".
