Louie da fly Posted May 28, 2016 Share #721 Posted May 28, 2016 Johann I used pushpins on my own dromon build and they worked a charm! Thanks for the inspiration. And Mark, thanks for the tip about drilling holes to take the pins. It worked wonderfully. (I drilled 60 holes 1mm diameter and only broke one drillbit).

Here are the latest fitting parts for the rudder, the thwarts and the eyebolt to see before they are burnished. The last picture shows the thwart with the already installed holder. The side panels in the bow area, which also form the conclusion of the grating are still missing.

malachy Posted June 26, 2016 Share #749 Posted June 26, 2016 Super Arbeit, Johann, bin echt begeistert! And you probably already know this painting, but I think it´s worth showing: Épisode de l'expédition du Mexique en 1838 by Horace Vernet. It shows the Prince of Joinville on the poop of La Créole, listening to the reports of the vessel´s Lieutenant, Penaud and sees the explosion of the tower of the Fort of Saint-Jean d'Ulloa on 27 November 1838. By the way, do we know anything about the sailing qualities of La Créole? paulsutcliffe, uss frolick, wyz and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
