ferarr Posted April 23, 2018 #1 Posted April 23, 2018 Hello everyone: I have finally started the "Dos Amigos". I'm using the plans included in the book "The history of American Sailing Ships, Chapelle." I have also found some documentation in the book "Global Schooner, Marquardz", and searching, the original plans of the "Fair Rosamund" in the museum of Greenwich (It is how they renamed the boat, once captured, and the plans of the house Assembly "Golden Kits" back in the 70s / 80s. The differences between the first three planes is minimal, I believe that produced by deformations in the copies. Of the rooms the biggest difference is that the length is 2/3 cm. minor, otherwise they are quite similar. The scale is 1:50. Well, I put some photos. A greeting (Hola a todos: Por fin he comenzado el "Dos Amigos". Estoy utilizando los planos incluidos en el libro "The history of American Sailing Ships, de Chapelle". También he encontrado algo de documentación en el libro "Global Schooner, de Marquardz", y rebuscando, los planos originales del "Fair Rosamund" en el museo de Greenwich (Es como renombraron al barco, una vez capturado, y los planos de la casa de montaje "Golden Kits" de allá por los años 70/80. Las diferencias entre los tres primeros planos es mínima, considero que producida por deformaciones en las copias. De los cuartos la mayor diferencia es que la eslora es 2/3 cm. menor, por lo demás son bastante similares. La escala es 1:50. Bueno, os pongo algunas fotos.

ferarr Posted August 3, 2018 Author #8 Posted August 3, 2018 Hello : I have assembled a plywood to start working on the deck planking and for the execution of the gunwales. I have marked some lines of reference, and I have cut the stem, which is pending to thicken, but which I needed for the separation of the apostles, (Sorry, I do not translate it into English). I also put a plan of the planking of the cover. I had my doubts about the arrangement of the deck tables, but it seems that Chapelle draws them like that. Where I have doubts is in the width of the gunwale when it runs through the transom, I do not know if it should have the width of the rudder trunk, or not. a greeting (Hola a todos: Ya he montado un contrachapado para comenzar a trabajar en le tablazón de la cubierta y para la ejecución de los trancaniles. He marcado unas lineas de referencia, y he cortado la roda, que esta pendiente de regruesar, pero que necesitaba para la separación de los apóstoles. Os pongo también un plano de la tablazón de la cubierta. Tenia mis dudas respecto a la disposición de las tablas de cubierta, pero parece que Chapelle las dibuja así. Donde tengo dudas es en ancho del trancanil cuando discurre por el espejo de popa, no se si debe tener el ancho de la limera del timon, o no.

ferarr Posted August 20, 2018 Author #10 Posted August 20, 2018 (edited) Hello everyone. Already placed the gunwales. I should have done the firing of the poles, but I do not have the drill column at hand, so I have advanced part of the covering of the deck and the cutting of the deck boards. a greeting (Hola a todos. Colocado ya el trancanil. Debería haber realizado la fogonadura de los palos, pero no tengo a mano la columna de taladro, así que he adelantado parte del forrado de la cubierta y el corte de las tablas de la cubierta. Un saludo) (Hola a todos. Colocado ya el trancanil.

ferarr Posted October 14, 2018 Author #11 Posted October 14, 2018 Good morning to everybody.

ferarr Posted February 16, 2019 Author #12 Posted February 16, 2019 Well, I've finished with the deck of the deck, I had to rebuild part of the gunwales by a small accident to scrape the deck, but the truth is that you do not notice the arrangement.

ferarr Posted October 9, 2019 Author #15 Posted October 9, 2019 Hello everyone: I've had a few days, and I've continued with the model. I have made the grooves to place the "barraganetes", I have cut all the "barraganetes", I have built the covers of the "trancaniles", which I will then paste, and I will make the grooves for the "barraganetes" (more carefully, and more tightly, as it will be seen), And I built the "apostles." From here, I will place the keel and start with the helmet lining. Greetings. (Hola a todos: He tenido unos días, y he seguido con el modelo. He realizado las acanaladuras para colocar los "barraganetes", He cortado todos los "barraganetes", He construido las tapas de los "trancaniles", que luego pegare, y volveré a hacer las acanaladuras para los "barraganetes" (con mas cuidado, y mas ajustadas, ya que quedara visto), Y he construido los "apóstoles". A partir de aquí, ya colocare la quilla y empezare con el forro del casco. Un saludo) Mirabell61, KeithAug, coxswain and 7 others 10 Quote

Bill Jackson Posted October 17, 2020 #24 Posted October 17, 2020 Sir, you are WAY out of my league!!! I am also building the Dos Amigos, but after seeing this posting, I feel like I want to throw mine away and just keep looking at what you have done. The Dos Amigos is my second model ship that I have built. I can see I have a long way to go, to do the quality work that you do. mtaylor and Siegfried 2 Quote

ferarr Posted February 27, 2021 Author #26 Posted February 27, 2021 Hello: At the moment I have it stopped. I had not thought about putting it, thanks for the comment. The slave ships that I know do not carry them, or do not represent them on the plans (L'Ouragan, Amistad), although I do know of their existence on other larger ships (L'Aurore). I see that you have finished your "Dos Amigos", put some more photos. A gretting. (Hola: De momento lo tengo parado. No había pensado en ponerlo, gracias por el comentario. Los bergantín goleta negreros que conozco, no los llevan, o no los representan en los planos (L'Ouragan, Amistad), aunque si conozco su existencia en otros barcos mayores (L'Aurore). Ya veo que has terminado tu "Dos Amigos", pon alguna fotos mas. Un saludo G.L. and mtaylor 2 Quote
