Ferit Posted July 15, 2018 #1 Posted July 15, 2018 I need help... Please let me know; how much have to be the proportion of the distance of the euphroe form the top rim according to the diameter of the crowsnet? Or another ratio between other two things that should give me the opportunity to calculate the possible lenght of the crowfeet.

druxey Posted July 15, 2018 #2 Posted July 15, 2018 In contemporary rigged models, the euphroe appears to be about the length of the top to 1 1/2 the length away from the front of the top along the stay. mtaylor 1 Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv

Thank you druxey, If I understood correctly, if the lenght of the euphroe is 1 unit, the distance from the front of the crowsnet to the euphroe have to be 1,5 unit.

druxey Posted July 16, 2018 #4 Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) No, the length of the top (platform) is the unit. The euphroe sits forward of that be one to one and a half lengths down the stay.

Mark P Posted July 18, 2018 #6 Posted July 18, 2018 Don't think I would like to be the one who had to tension the euphroe tackle!

druxey Posted July 18, 2018 #7 Posted July 18, 2018 I'd thought about that. One would have to crawl up the stay.... Fortunately we only have to rig that at model size! mtaylor, BANYAN and Ferit 3 Be sure to sign up for an epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series http://trafalgar.tv
AndrewNaylor Posted July 19, 2018 #8 Posted July 19, 2018 looks like you are doing a wonderful job of a very intricate part of the rigging Very satisfying I am sure when finished beautiful work Andy mtaylor 1 Current Build HM Granado CC Past builds HMS Chatham CC, HM Convulsion CC, Duke William German Kit, Fair American LSS, The Wright Flyer MS
