This the way I made my hinges on my Xebec. I cut a piece of tube to length. I used soft solder to solder the tube to the strap. One hinge ready for the fixing holes

This is the way I bend my planks. Bending 4x1mm cherry over a home made plank bender. The planks are placed in cold water for about 10 minutes, then taken out of the water and then placed over the hot plank bender and worked to the shape you require. Use the water as frquently as required. Kind Regards mij

The way I tension my blades is to tighten the blade with the tension knob until you can flick your finger on the blade and get a clear ting from the blade. Hope this makes sense mij

Xebec 1:60 scale scratch build by mij - Finished
mij replied to mij's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800
Hi John All I worked with was a set of drawings and everything was scratch built. The carvings were my own design and were carved from box wood. To loosen the grating area, try lifting the glued wood with a scalpel, But be very gentle. Good luck mij -
Hi John If you look on my Xebec log, you will see how I done my grating. Kind Regards mij
