Peta_V Posted March 20, 2020 Author Share #301 Posted March 20, 2020 Here is a short guide, how I do coils. I have a jig from the scrap wood with 3 removable pins (2,3,5) and 3 securing points (1,4,6). 1. Secure the line to point 1 and make several loops around pins 2 and 3. I do 4-6 loops so the coils does not look similar. (I start with removed pin 5). Once finished with loops secure the other end to point 4. 2. Unsecure line from point 1 and pull out the very first loop through the middle of the coil. 3. Now you have to twist this to form the eye and secure it with pin 5. 4. Remove pin 2 and fully insert pin 5. Now you can adjust the coil as you want a once happy secure the end to point 6. 5. Now I secure the coil with 3 drops of CA glue. One where the eye meets coil, second ať the bottom of the coil and third to secure the loose end to the coil. Remove the coil from the jig by removing pin 5 and trim the excess thread. 6. Place the coil on the deck Perhaps someone finds it usefull. Stay healthy!

ccoyle Posted March 20, 2020 Share #302 Posted March 20, 2020 That's a great technique, Peta. I hope you won't mind that I copied your last post and made a separate entry for it in the Masting & Rigging subforum. That way it can be more easily found by folks searching for help with this particular task. Cheers! yvesvidal 1 Quote Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

Ryland Craze Posted March 20, 2020 Share #303 Posted March 20, 2020 Thanks Peta for the how-to guide on making rope coils. I will refer to this when I get to making rope coils on my build. Your Avos is looking great. hollowneck and Peta_V 2 Quote Ryland Member - Hampton Roads Ship Model Society - Ship Model Society of New Jersey - Nautical Research Guild Current Build - Armed Virginia Sloop, 18th Century Longboat Completed Build - Medway Longboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yvesvidal Posted March 25, 2020 Share #306 Posted March 25, 2020 Absolutely stunning. I think "Master Korabel" should use your model for the box artwork and pictures of the finished model, in the instructions. What a Masterpiece!!!

Thank you. Chris I would love to see your build. I am actually really suprised that there aren't much more building logs of this kit. It is such a great kit for reasonable price I would say! I hope you share your progress with MSW group. If you would need any of help, I'm happy to try. @yvesvidal @Edwardkenway @JpR62 thank you guys for your kind comments, really appreciated!

Peta_V Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share #314 Posted December 2, 2020 Greetings, After a long brake the cold weather came to our area which could (I hope) give me some time for ships. There is not much missing on AVOS. rope coils on the cleats and flag. Possibly I add some small details. I have started with coils. First attempts after the brake. I guess I would need some warm up to get up to speed again. greenstone, etsinko, Fernando E and 1 other 4 Quote Current builds: Tender AVOS - Master Korabel HMS Royal Caroline - Panart HMS Triton - Cross section Completed: HMS Victory - Revell HMS Bounty - Revell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peta_V Posted March 28, 2021 Author Share #315 Posted March 28, 2021 Hi guys, Actually no update on AVOS but I wanted to share thi video (and whole series) of the restauration of TalyHo. In this episode they are finishing planking and I love it so so much! The whole series is here. I really recommend watching it as there are many valuable "how to" explanations even for us, modellers. https://youtube.com/c/SampsonBoatCo Enjoy.

BenD Posted March 28, 2021 Share #316 Posted March 28, 2021 Yes the Talyho! I've been watching these guys remaking this ship. It's incredible and makes me want to work on a full size project like that one day. Quote Ropes of Scale.com - Rope and cable for the scale modeler.
