Ferit Posted May 13, 2013 Author #123 Posted May 13, 2013 Salute awsjerome, The height of this pin rail is approximately 2,00 - 2,25 m. (scale 1:40) I think the crew of the main deck have been choosen between the men at least 2,00 m tall... They were working, eating, sleeping... only on the main deck, Or... One man on the shoulder of the another... In fact I have not any idea. Maybe the authorities in this forum could answer your question. By now, me, I begin to wait any recourse from Mark (Moderator). I went to the section scracht build log, to the Model Mariner's Berlin and saw almost the same height... Perhaps it occurs because of the original plans.

md1400cs Posted May 13, 2013 #126 Posted May 13, 2013 Ferit, As everybody is saying....beautiful. Hmmm one question, On your barrel, did your make the small tap? such attention to small details (:-) ? I would like to think of something like that as well for my build. You are my guide !

mtaylor Posted May 13, 2013 #127 Posted May 13, 2013 Ferit, On the pin rail question, I'm assuming it's the ones on the outboard side atop the bulwarks that's being questioned? What does the rigging plan show being tied off there? If there is rigging belayed there, then they may have used a ladder.... maybe? If nothing is tied off, than it's decoration. The other problem, is that is a kit and sometimes the kit makers take a lot of liberties with scale and placement of items. Come to think of it, I have a few like that on my Wasa... they are high off the deck.

Ferit Posted May 13, 2013 Author #128 Posted May 13, 2013 Salute Michael, Thanks for your kind comments... Following me as a guide?!... You will be certainly lost!... In fact, there is not any barrel on the quarter deck through the plans. But I like the barrels in period ships; typical and concerning the past. And the crew have had to be thirsty. The tap and the bung are my addition.

Ferit Posted May 13, 2013 Author #129 Posted May 13, 2013 Salute Mark, Thank you very much for your help and explanation... There is rigging belayed there. Therefore it is not a decoration. Maybe because of the kit makers, maybe from the original plans of the builders of Berlin. I want to believe in the second alternative to calm down... mtaylor 1 Quote Best Regards… Ferit KUTLU Under construction: Frigate Berlin (Brandenburg Navy) Hope: Frigate Wappen Von Hamburg (Brandenburg Navy)

Ferit Posted May 15, 2013 Author #137 Posted May 15, 2013 Salute, I decided to go to the past. The reason is that maybe, one day this will be helpful to anyone who wants to build this ship. I wanted to share a correction, maybe modification that I have made before. Unfortunately, as I have had no idea to become a member at that time I have not taken photos step by step. But now I try to explain how I have acted. The kit provides the transom part by plywood. As I have followed the plans, first I have built the transom with 5x5 mm walnut strips as the same dimensions of the kit plan. The transom had to run over the edges of the hull a little. But the metal curtain decoration did not macht with the dimensions of the transom. It was more smaller. I have extended the lenght of the curtain with wood. Then I painted it. I have rebuilt with the wooden strips to provide symmetry of the top decoration. Then I painted it as well. hamilton, janos, mtaylor and 7 others 10 Quote Best Regards… Ferit KUTLU Under construction: Frigate Berlin (Brandenburg Navy) Hope: Frigate Wappen Von Hamburg (Brandenburg Navy)

md1400cs Posted May 16, 2013 #143 Posted May 16, 2013 Ferit, Nice!!! you and I seem to have similar ideas. I have also "re-built" or changed sections of my build to better suit the look. What you are doing is very creative. AND super improving the realistic details of the ship. Always a pleasure to catch up with your Berlin. Oh, thanks for your response to my barrel question. I will remember your details when I get to that stage.
