Landlubber Mike Posted November 30, 2018 #31 Posted November 30, 2018 Beautiful work Marsalv! Thank you for sharing your build progress and techniques! I bought the monograph off eBay years ago when it was listed for a great deal, and have always wanted to build it once I gained more skill and experience. It's a relatively plain ship compared to some of the other Ancre subjects when it comes to ornamentation, but I think it's a beauty.

dvm27 Posted November 30, 2018 #32 Posted November 30, 2018 Lovely work, Marsalv. Assembling them off the model in the jig you've created certainly simplifies the process somewhat. druxey 1 Quote GregwebsiteAdmiralty Modelsmoderator Echo Cross-section buildAdmiralty Models Cross-section BuildFinished buildPegasus, 1776, cross-sectionCurrent buildSpeedwell, 1752

marsalv Posted February 16, 2019 Author #34 Posted February 16, 2019 I bought a "good helper" for producing of the frames. I have lost more than three months because I have found an untrustworthy supplier and I have had to look for another one but I am still satisfied with the result. The frames are ready for the beveling. popash42, JOUFF, Dubz and 19 others 21 1 Quote

dvm27 Posted February 16, 2019 #36 Posted February 16, 2019 Looks like you have little to no fairing to do amidships. I assume that's not an 8-axis machine. Imagine havinga mill that could also cut the changing bevels of the frames!

marsalv Posted February 23, 2019 Author #38 Posted February 23, 2019 To Dirk - I bought this machine from one Czech company - https://cnc.inshop.cz/cnc-frezky-a-routery/mala-modelarska-cnc-frezka-pro-gravirovani-a-ryti. This company is co-owned with one man from German and milling maschines are made in China under inspection people from German. So I hope the quality of production will also be under tight control. Milling speed is in my case cca 15-20 mm/s, time required for one frame production is aprox. 7 minutes (milling maschine makes 10 passes). Beveling was done in two phases, rough sanding was made with help of Proxxon maschines, fine sanding was made manually with sanding paper glued on the wooden sticks. Beveled frames are temporarily situated on the keel. Landrotten Highlander, albert, Bluto 1790 and 38 others 41 Quote

ChrisLBren Posted April 4, 2019 #48 Posted April 4, 2019 Nice work - thanks for these close up shots of your keel - these are really helpful ! Have you decided whether your adding the extra gun ports or modeling her as launched ? Chris mtaylor 1 Quote

marsalv Posted April 9, 2019 Author #50 Posted April 9, 2019 Thank you guys. Chris - I will propably build the ship without adding the extra gun ports. So rest of filling keys is added, the groove for bilge water is made, the whole hull is sanded and prepared fot the next task. Jorge Diaz O, tadheus, Vivian Galad and 35 others 38 Quote

PeteB Posted April 10, 2019 #53 Posted April 10, 2019 Hi Marsalv - Can't help but keep going back and admiring your work from start to date - just beautiful clean joinery especially the way you have cut the limbers - I was wondering if you could let us in on the secret ? It looks like some sort of collar around a mill bit which is guided by the batten and limits the depth ? I can't work out if its stationary or rotating with the mill bit - Could you enlighten me please. Cheers Pete Jorge Diaz O, mtaylor and Saburo 3 Quote

Dowmer Posted April 23, 2019 #59 Posted April 23, 2019 Marsalv, excellent joinery. What kind of wood is it and how did you manage to make a thick piece of wood bend around the bow like that?

marsalv Posted April 26, 2019 Author #60 Posted April 26, 2019 Hi Dowmer, deck clamps are made from pear wood. I use the old bender (first picture) for wood bending. Not the shaped end, but the heating tube to which I place a water-soaked cloth. Steam from the water heats the wood and makes the bending easier. The deck clamps are attached to the hull. Now I am going to finish the stern. ChrisLBren, albert, paulsutcliffe and 24 others 27 Quote
