Sjors Posted April 21, 2014 Author Share #1622 Posted April 21, 2014 Thanks Tim, Frank and Bob, @ Tim, Welcome at my build log Take a seat and enjoy. And thanks for the word impressive @ Frank, You are one of the persons that let me re-do the crow's feet. Thanks for that !!!!!!! @ Bob, It's not that difficult and I enjoy it to doing it. It was my first attempt ( forget the wrong one please ) and I like it !!!!The only thing that I find difficult was the tension on the stay. To little ? to much ? Popeye gives at Mobbsie's Aggy a clear answer on that and that is what I follow..... riverboat 1 Quote Currend builds: USS Constitution by Sjors - Model Shipways - Scale 1:76 HMS Victory by Sjors - Jotika - Scale 1:72 On hold: VOC Reconnaisance yacht Duyfken by Sjors - Kolderstok - Scale 1:50 Finished builds: HMS Snake (1797) by Sjors - Caldercraft - Scale 1:64 Nuestra Señora del Pilar by Sjors & Anja - OcCre - Scale 1:64 H.M.

src Posted April 26, 2014 Share #1645 Posted April 26, 2014 Sjors, A compound miter is a miter in two planes; both a bevel and a miter. Think of the miter needed to install crown molding or the miter you need on your planking at the stem. You need an angle to match where the plank meets the stem but there is a second angle running towards the inner portion of the ship. Am I explaining this ok? I can see it in my head but never had to describe one. Here is a picture of one, maybe that will help.
