Don Case Posted February 17, 2021 #1  Posted February 17, 2021 (edited) How did they do this? I've lofted square frames but I can't wrap my head around cant frames. That third dimension just seems to make it improbable in my brain. I'm probably going to use Longridge's method of building a form for the cant frames so I don't need a detailed instruction.

allanyed Posted February 17, 2021 #2  Posted February 17, 2021 Don, For a good start, you might benefit from reading Wayne Kempson's article here at MSW on drafting, which includes square and cant frames.  https://thenrg.org/resources/Documents/articles/DraftingShipPlansInCAD.pdf Allan DaveC-66 and mtaylor 2

Don Case Posted February 17, 2021 Author #4  Posted February 17, 2021 Thanks Alan. I saw that PDF from one of my searches but it seemed to be more CAD related. I looked a little closer this time. Another PDF for bedtime reading🙂 mtaylor 1 HMS Discovery 1789 by Don Case - 1:48 - - Build logs for subjects built 1751 - 1800 - Model Ship World™
