Ferit Posted April 22, 2013 Author #38 Posted April 22, 2013 I continue to update my log... The installation of the lid of the gun port is not right I think according to many pictures at MSW. It must be at the same plane with the hull and the frame of the lid must be inside as much as the thickness of the lid. The cannons must be painted in black... The lids have to be hinged...

Ferit Posted April 24, 2013 Author #45 Posted April 24, 2013 Hi Hamilton, Thanks for your comment. Berlin is a single planked model. The plans are not very detailed. There are four sheets. For exemple Artesena Latina's ship plans are more detailed than Berlin's plans. It's considered that you know basic rules. Sometimes, I got stuck on, but I have solved problems via internet, thanks to MSW and another sites. Now I look back and I can easily say there is no problem to build her... Regards...

JPett Posted April 29, 2013 #57 Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) Ahoy Ferit Were you able to finish the rails by bending alone or did the wood need to also be cut, to get the curves.

Ferit Posted April 30, 2013 Author #58 Posted April 30, 2013 Salute, JPett, (Pic. No 1): I have bended the head rails (2x4 mm) with the electric plank bender tool. First, from the narrow side (2 mm) -it's more troublesome-, I have soaked the strip in hot water, then shaped it with the tool so that even it got dry, soaked again, then shaped... 7-8 times... After that, same steps with the large face (4 mm) of the strip. When I have got the simmetry for both side, I have glued them. (Pic. No 2): For cross beams, from a block of wallnut wood I carved three rings, these are not bended strips... popeye the sailor and coxswain 2 Quote Best Regards… Ferit KUTLU Under construction: Frigate Berlin (Brandenburg Navy) Hope: Frigate Wappen Von Hamburg (Brandenburg Navy)

md1400cs Posted April 30, 2013 #60 Posted April 30, 2013 Hello Ferit, I discovered your Build after you were kind enough to visit my Wasa (so happy you looked in). I clicked on your link, and I am super impressed. The level of added details, the rebuilding of "kit included" parts is so excellent. This Berlin will be indeed very special. I must have spent an hour looking over your entire log to date. I downloaded and put into folders several of your ideas to help me with my project. Thanks for sharing. Your custom building of the window frames, windows, canon carriages, furniture, barrels, doors (so perfect), canon doors, bilge pump, long boat, bowsprit, hull planking, and so on...Really a beautiful project. I will follow your build with pleasure. Oh, I have a question. Your canon door hinges; are they the Corel, from the kit ones? They look too good and correct to be from the kit.
