DORIS Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share #818 Posted December 22, 2019 I have also started making own wooden blocks, so far only larger sizes, the smaller ones I will probably use from a CNC machine.

Dziadeczek Posted December 23, 2019 Share #834 Posted December 23, 2019 13 hours ago, DORIS said: The screen of the seat of ease on the main channel - made according to original paintings from that period: Are you sure it is a seat-of-ease? It might be it, or it might be something else... Check out this thread: (I am trying to imagine these poor souls trying to get inside that barrel in order to ease themselves, while having the "urge".... Where was the entrance to this structure? A door through the bulwark? From the top of this barrel?). Also, Druxey had a point - this thing hungs directly above a gunport, which would make the crew of this gun "difficult" to operate it during the "use" of this facility, I think...

DORIS Posted December 23, 2019 Author Share #837 Posted December 23, 2019 (edited) To Dziadeczek: Yes, I am sure, this is a screen around the seat of ease, you can see under it the outlet (it was not always used there) which drains dirt to the sea - so as not to pollute the hull of the ship. I have these information from one of the greatest experts on ships construction and history. In Czech forum you can find him as Kpt.KL. The crew got inside through the top hole as they climbed down the shroud. During the battle this screen was removed. It is not positioned immediately above a gun port but is shifted a bit to the side. Here are some Van de Velde drawings with various design of that thing: And these smaller barrels could be intended for salted meat etc. as was mentioned above: Edited December 23, 2019 by DORIS marktiedens, KARAVOKIRIS, davyboy and 21 others 24 Quote Doris Current build: HMS Royal Katherine 1664 from card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
