Now I have to carve some figures. I tried at first to carve the two sea animals which will "live" on the reling. They are not so complicated as the galions lion and the others.  They are named dolphins, but I think that they are typical baroque seamonsters.

Many thanks to Patrick and the Likes!

 

After several weeks with carving, I now again have to made some technical parts of the Utrecht.

 

First the windlass

 

On board of the Utrecht the catheads and the windlass are one technical system. I have made it from swiss pear, the rolls are from brass

IMG_3970.thumb.jpg.08469a9b819c4bab6b62e46a73ed5613.jpg

 

It was no problem to turn the shaft of the windlass from beech wood

Hi Hartmut

 

Nice job on the windless and catheads.  The precise milling that you've achieved on the windlass makes it look like it could really work!

 

Also, does your wife know that you've stolen her ironing-board in the second last photo to use as a building board???  No????

 

Cheers

Aye, Nils and Patrick!

 

many Thanks for your kindly words!

 

@ Patrick   -   some years ago when I was modelling the Pegasus I had the idea to modify an ironing board so that it will be possible to go deeper as the normal way in using such a device.  When I did talk about this with my Admiral she has an idea how ti manage this. And than she said: you can get my old ironing board, and I will go to the store to buy an new one. She has an modern ironing board and I have a very good working modelling bench.

 

Cheers Hartmut

Ahhh, ok.  I'd really like to believe you, Hartmut.  However, I still think that you nicked the ironing board off your Admiral.  She's probably still looking for it after all these years!!!

 

Hehe.  Just joking of course😉😉😉

Beautiful carving Hartmut and I love those sea monsters. I need to make a few for my VOC ship, yours can be my models.;)

To model the gallion is a little bit fiddly. The drawings doesn't show the real dimension of the rails and knees. So I started first to make the lower and upper knees.

IMG_4020.thumb.jpg.b05e9b5c1d0e58ec265ac0a8c44f3159.jpg

After this I could find out the dimensions of the upper rail

Thanks Patrick! And the Same to you!

The replica makes 3-4 knots  at Wind 3-4. Yes, this ships hadn't been racehorses, but very comfortable sailing hotels for the upper ten of the dutch companies.

Bevor I can start to carve and bring in the figurhead (a lion ) I have to make some little parts to finish the bow.

The reinforcement is from 0,8mm brass. The loop from 2mm brass soldered into the brass sheet.

Another step. Utrecht needs a stand now. I am rarely a minimalist. Only for the stands. Therefore I like to use plexi glass for this job.

 

IMG_4116.jpg.4d17cb86db4828a81bdca3a6eaf2e2fb.jpg

It s from 6mm Plexi and a 9mm roundbeam, assembled with two M4 screws

My Admirals did say: Beautiful, she floats over the ground.

Hello Guys!

 

Thanks for the kind words to my works!

 

Here again some pics of further details.

To make the railing around the stairs was a special pleasure, since I have not worked with metal for a long time. It's from 3 and 2mm brass, soldered with silver solder.

IMG_4185.thumb.jpg.fbcb3176df13b346ca039c274404b454.jpg

 

On the supports came still a few balls,which comes close to the baroque style.

 

IMG_4198.thumb.jpg.4d41fb2df7c675fca523bb85db0698c3.jpg

And here are the other parts which are new on deck. Four cleats, two pin racks and the bearings of the leeboards

Hello, mates!

 

we, my Admiral and me, returned from a 14 days journey on board of the Richard With, a ship of the norwegian HurtigRuten. A very  impressive time from Bergen (Nor) to Kirkenes and back to Bergen.

But now its time to continue modelling the Utrecht.  The last parts on deck. Some cleats and the skylight of the big cabin. To make this part was an most interesting job. It is eight cornerd.

Next step was modelling  the rudder.

 

Bevor I could install the rudder I had to paint the under water parts of the Utrecht

 

IMG_4707.thumb.JPG.c5d309e8345ab1e1d392d4cf518fab1b.JPG

There are a lot of little thing which must be modeled for such a little ship. And its a great fun to make this parts.

First the flaggstaff of the pavillon

IMG_4745.thumb.jpg.3fa3b1fd750d3830261d239876d48393.jpg

 

IMG_4746.thumb.jpg.b7f29dd840b3e7e2cbe4bfe9d614c72f.jpg

To prevent this faltbottom ship from drifting sideways leebords are used.

 

The leebords are composite pieces of wood, reinforced and holded together by iron and iron bolts.   The dutch shipwrights found out that the leebords performed better when they are placed somewhere forward or aft.

 

IMG_4750.thumb.jpg.93d3fc741cf091a8d789ee37e46bf79b.jpg

 

IMG_4759.thumb.jpg.236abe67f8cab6f979fa4f9cbaa7b836.jpg

The fittings at which the leebords can be moved forward or backward.  Brass soldered with silver

IMG_4754.thumb.jpg.8b209324ee3af3509204f8d159adf33c.jpgver

 

Most of the blocks of this dutch ships carried metallfittings.  I have made the first blocks for the leebord halliard.  Also from brass soldered with silver.
