G.L. Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share #64 Posted March 30, 2017 Now I lay the planks of the lower deck. For this I use the deck pattern as described in the book 'Historic ship models' by zu Montfeld. mtaylor, Eddie, VACorsair and 1 other 4 G.L.

G.L. Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share #65 Posted March 30, 2017 I use pine planks for the decks. I searched for the planks with the finest grains that I dispose of. To imitate the caulking between the planks, I glue strips of 220 gram black paper on the edge of each plank. Eddie 1 G.L.

G.L. Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share #66 Posted March 30, 2017 The after end of the cross section is not bound by a deck beam.

G.L.

G.L. Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share #73 Posted November 20, 2017 It has been since March that I made any progress in the Triton cross section project because I gave priority at my Ostend shrimper project for some months. Time to take up the thread now. The deck beams and gun deck stanchions were already made in March. G.L.

G.L. Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share #74 Posted November 20, 2017 In March my lathe was still a 30 years old mounting of my Bosh drill, not quite high technology.

G.L. Posted November 20, 2017 Author Share #76 Posted November 20, 2017 Here the stanchions are placed in the model almost on their positions.

G.L. Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share #82 Posted November 23, 2017 I remember from the lower deck that the making of the notches for the ledges in the carlings a monotonous job, so I decide to make them in parts and fill them immediately with ledges.

G.L. Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share #87 Posted November 23, 2017 I intend to paint the lower deck in white. I guess that it would be very difficult to do so when the gun deck is already in place, so beams, knees, carlings and ledges are not glued already. I remove them again and will paint them before gluing on position. Pete38, Derek C, mtaylor and 1 other 4 G.L.
