allanyed Posted February 15, 2014 #452 Posted February 15, 2014 Remco, Your build is exceptional and a pleasure to follow. I do have a bit of confusion in my own mind on the bulkhead lanterns. This is not a criticism as the lanterns are VERY nice. They are showing exactly opposite each other. I always thought, (and very possibly incorrectly) that the access to the bulkhead lanterns was from the opposite side of the bulkhead much like the lanterns in the light room. The attached drawing seems to indicate access through the bulkhead, thus my comments. Of course they could have hinged doors inside the room and hang them as shown on Kingfisher, but it was a new one for me, or at least the first time I remember seeing this configuration. Thanks again for sharing your build. Allan Quote PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.

druxey Posted February 15, 2014 #453 Posted February 15, 2014 Access to these lanterns was only necessary from inside the room. The only place where outside access was essential was inside the magazine(s). Think about that for a moment!

Mirabell61 Posted February 15, 2014 #454 Posted February 15, 2014 Great Remco, really great, one really wants to step aboard to watch the shipbuilders do their joining work, carefully tapping from beam to beam, watching out not to slip and fall a deck or two below.

allanyed Posted February 16, 2014 #455 Posted February 16, 2014 Druxey, I thought the same thing about the lanterns being opened in the room if it was not the magazine. The drawing I posted earlier, and especially the one below gave me pause. Why are there bulkheads forming a little room to the back of the lantern rather than just opening the lantern inside the gunner's room. Would there be loose powder normally present in the gunner's room?

druxey Posted February 16, 2014 #456 Posted February 16, 2014 Alan: that drawing certainly shows that there was a tiny light room/cupboard, so there must have been materiel such as fuses and slow matches, etc. stored in the gunner's room on larger ships. In the carpenter's room example you posted, it looks more like a illuminating light to me. However, it does look ambiguous.

Remcohe Posted February 16, 2014 Author #457 Posted February 16, 2014 Interesting discussion, unfortunately my NMM plans don't show the position of the lanterns. Meanwhile I've made some storage space for the galley, I wasn't pleased with MKI so I build MKII with thinner hinges and a working drawer. Behind it I'll make an open cupboard.

So just send your idea's and we'll make it a joint effort. The upper half of the cupboard as two features, one shelf for pots and one to hold plates, I got the idea of some pictures I found of galleys.
