Timberheads and planksheer (I don't know if it's the right term).

Just WOW 😳 🤯

 

Every time I look on your updates I'm more and more amazed of you precise work!

 

Looking forward for more

 

Cheers,

[marsalv]

Thank you Matt.

Forecastle deck planking.

[daniel.b]

All is a very good job, but why this white planking? for my, it's too claire.

[Alex M]

The white wood represents the pine, that was generelly used for deck planking, the pear represents the oak, used for important structural planking, and is darker.

 

As for me, specially by such wunderfull builds, the used wood does not matter, but the handwork, that is by marsalv simply incredible. I'm out of words.

 

Regards

Super crispy!  This is the standard of work that I would like to read more about in the Nautical Research Journal.

[druxey]

In time the white wood will darken to a mellow yellowish color.

[daniel.b]

OK, it's good job, but, it's the first time that I see this color.

[marsalv]

Thank you guys for answering daniel.b question and for the compliment my work too. Forecastle deck planking on the pictures is before waxing. After waxing get the wood  little bit yellowish color so the contrast between maple and pear is not so big. On the other hand, I must say that on uncolored models, the color contrast of different types of wood is very important. Otherwise, the model is too dull from my point of view.

[Peta_V]

You can nicely see the difference between waxed main deck and forecastle deck before waxing on this picture.

I agree with Marslav with the colors of wood. It looks amazing!

Is this, by any chance, holly?

[marsalv]

To Dziadeczek: The used wood for deck planking is maple.

[marsalv]

The planking of the quarter deck is completed, decorative mouldings are added at the end of the quarter deck and forecastle deck.

[JpR62]

Always so precise and spectacular! Thank you for sharing your wonderful work ☺️

[marsalv]

Beakhead bulkhead and the beakhead planking (?).

[marsalv]

Catheads + forecastle deck and quarter deck scuppers.

[mtaylor]

So clean and crisp.  Really looks great.

[marsalv]

Thank you mtaylor.

I continue with the beakhead bulkhead pinrail and knees.

[Hubac's Historian]

This model is just one of the best and most cleanly worked that I have seen.  I have said so before, but I really admire the way that you have optimized cutouts to see the interior structures, in such a pleasingly artistic way.  All of the small details like lead-lined scupper ports are meticulously rendered.  A real pleasure to watch this one take shape!

[marsalv]

Thank you guys.

I continue with some details on the forecastle deck. As the first ones - scuttles and the galley´s hatchway.

If I may ask, how did you square the holes so nicely. It looks like you did the main part with a router/mill and the rest with a chisel?

Btw, beautiful work!

[albert]

Great beautiful work marsalv.

Thank you guys for nice comments.

Scrollwork and moldings are done with CNC milling maschine. The same situation is for the parts on next pictures. All carvings are made with CNC. It is likely that some of you will condemn this process, but you will not stop technical progress. I would be quite interested in your opinion on the use of modern techniques for creating carvings.

First I compliment you on the amazing work you do and also agree that there is no choice and that we need to incorporate in the construction using a cnc machine. I would like to ask what software you use for cnc milling, and whether it is machine usable CNC 3018 Pro Max Laser Engraver GRBL DIY 3Axis

[marsalv]

To Hsae: The square holes are made with small diameter milling bit (0,5 mm) and the rest with file.

To popash42: I am using VCarve Desktop software for CNC milling. As regards Laser Engraver, I´m not sure, but the VCarve Desktop is propably not primarily intended for laser. You can find information on the optional laser add-on module on the Vectric website (https://www.vectric.com/products/laser-module).

Pinrails.

[marsalv]

I continue to produce parts of belfry.

[Hubac's Historian]

Beautifully realized.

Uzun bir yaratıcı boşluktan sonra yeni bir projeye başladım. Bu 1:48 ölçeğinde "gabare" Le Gros Ventre olarak adlandırılır, model, Gerard Delacroix'in bir monografisine göre POF yöntemi (çerçeve üzerinde tahta) kullanılarak gerçekleştirilecektir. Bina için boyasız olarak kiraz, armut, siyah gürgen ve akçaağaç kullanacağım.
Gabare, 18. ve 19. yüzyıllarda Fransız Kraliyet Donanması tarafından kullanılan bir kargo gemisidir. Bu nedenle orlop deck yoktur.
İnşaatın ilk aşaması, omurga üzerine çerçevelerin montajı için gerekli bir yapı tahtasının yapılmasıydı.   Alt ve üst tabanın konumunun maksimum doğruluğuna büyük dikkat gösterilmelidir .

merhaba hayranlıkla izliyorum. 

bir sorum olacak

bu resimde ki yükseklik su hattımıdır.

 

Hello, I'm watching with admiration.

I have a question

The height in this picture is the waterline.

[marsalv]

Thank you guys.

To Taner Yagci: This is line nr. 8 form the Plate 3 - Hull horizontal section - the widest part of the hull.

I finished the belfry.

[albert]

Hi marsalv your work is fantastic.
