Wow!

 

Valeriy, you have made great progress since I last looked in on this build.

 

Thank you Phil!

I tried to the best of my ability during all your absence. :)

Very nice work Valeriy, as usual. The thing about torpedo nets is how many ships carried them for... maybe 25 years? And as far as I know, they only did what they were designed to do once, at the Japanese attack on Port Darwin in 1904.

On the Varyag with networks it turned out even sadder. From the United States, the Varyag came only with poles. And the networks themselves appeared in Russia later, when Varyag was already flooded in Chemulpo.

Hi Valeriy

 

I presume the lower platform is a device for disposing of mutineers?

Yes, Eberhard is right, the problem is solved with the help of a template.

First cut out of paper pattern of the inner contour. Then I scanned this template and put it on a computer in a vector program. Now it remains only to draw the part and solder it from brass.

And like the others I am enjoying your metal skills.

Jean, as long as I did not put the wooden rusternye lattice version from Keith may well exist. But if Kate insists on the execution version, then hanging on sailyard is still preferable. :)

Er vossiewulf I do not think the Japanese attacked Darwin in 1904 maybe 1942. The port you should refer to is Port Arthur, i think that was the name of the Russian base on the peninsula.

Yep you're right, I meant Port Arthur, the night time destroyer attack on the Russian fleet.
