OC. Thanks OC. Yup, there are many products to do the job, couldn't agree more!! 🙂 Sterling Silver Chain was, I thought, a "Pragmatic" approach to the problem that I had at hand. Friday afternoon, 3pm and I wanted something that I could use as soon as practicable. If I was to order a specific Blackner it would be a few days before I received anything, not to mention cost, shipping etc. I thought Household Bleach would be good to try, if it hadn't worked, I would have been forced down the "Commercial" path. The other thing that I considered "How often would I use?" (I did like the idea of squashed boiled eggs.... 🙂) Cheers and Regards, Harry. mtaylor and Canute 2 Quote Completed Builds: A/L Bluenose II A/L Mare Nostrum Sergal/Mantua Cutty Sark A/L Pen Duick A/L Fulgaro Amati/Partworks 1/200 Bismarck A/L Sanson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Collingwood Posted January 21, 2023 Share #423 Posted January 21, 2023 Place the chain then paint the damn thing Harry - its what my attaitude would be - treat it in place and do some paint shades and washes over it - Im sure it would behave - just needs a bit of time but atleast you would be able to work on it rather than waiting for stuff to arrive.

I had the chain immersed for about ten hours prior to the installation. (I quite like blackened Silver; the Black does not come off when handled unlike my experiences with blackened Brass Chain. Maybe in the future I'll substitute Brass Chain for Silver.... 🙂) Liver of Sulfur is preferred I believe. As for obtaining this on-line, I don't know, I did not try as I wanted the chain "Yesterday" as it were.... 🙂 Cheers and Regards, Harry. mtaylor, Old Collingwood and Canute 3 Quote Completed Builds: A/L Bluenose II A/L Mare Nostrum Sergal/Mantua Cutty Sark A/L Pen Duick A/L Fulgaro Amati/Partworks 1/200 Bismarck A/L Sanson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtaylor Posted January 22, 2023 Share #428 Posted January 22, 2023 Thanks for the explanation as I've never heard of using bleach on silver.

hof00 Posted January 22, 2023 Author Share #431 Posted January 22, 2023 Hi All, Another small update: Completed the Bow Anchor Chains, I used the "Eyelet" method of attaching the small Chains. (A couple of small touch ups required.) The Main Anchor Chains affixed but I feel that the Starboard side could have had a tad more tension. I don't think I'll push my luck, unless of course, it bugs me too much.... 🙂 I'm reasonably happy with the result, (I have to be, I'm not doing it again!!) Stern Anchor Chain tomorrow and maybe the Fore and Aft Hull Booms (I made these up some time ago.) I am looking forward to Rigging the Beastie, sort of.... 🙂 (The new "Specs" are awesome!! I can see again!!) Cheers....HOF.

Joe100 Posted January 23, 2023 Share #434 Posted January 23, 2023 Bismarck’s bow anchor was removed in Norway, to save fuel lugging it around. The stern anchor was more tricky to remove so it was left in place. Bismarck’s stern anchor didn’t use a chain cable, (anchor chains are called “cables” btw), it used a braided steel cable. After Denmark Strait, one of the bow anchors and cable was let go to help level the ship. It’s believed the other was dropped as well, with minimal results. mtaylor, Canute and hof00 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I have the Bow Anchor and "Cables" installed., probably not 100% historically accurate but I am comfortable with what I've got. 🙂 I have the Stern Cables to install later today. Edit: BTW were the Bow/Stern Booms for Boat recovery or something else? Cheers and Regards, Harry.

Joe100 Posted January 23, 2023 Share #436 Posted January 23, 2023 Excellent, just remember the stern anchor has a short amount of chain where the swivels connect, and the rest is steel cable. This anchor was rarely used and the KM felt a steel cable was sufficient for holding purposes. This meant the anchor itself did a little more work than the average anchor though. It’s not too strange of a setup, but it wasn’t as robust as others. The anchor chain cables do a lot of the heavy holding on a large ship. The booms you’re referring to are just standard boat mooring booms, they swing out and allow the crew to embark/disembark the ships small boats without having to come along the accommodation ladders. A little simpler to deploy. For your purposes, I’d rig them as stowed. These didn’t weigh much, and I believe they were left in place during Rhine Exercise. With the exception of the smaller boats being removed, most of the boat handling equipment was left in place. Bismarck would likely have been deploying boats often to search lone enemy ships, plant explosives, inspect, all the things one does on a cruiser-warfare cruise. The small boats weren’t going to be needed, so they were left in Norway. I’m sure after the loss of Bismarck they were redistributed, but it would have been interesting to know where they got off to. If you’re interested, one of the Verkehrsboot from Tirpitz still lives. I believe it’s in France now, but I can’t remember the details. mtaylor, Canute, hof00 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really good to add correct terminology to my repertoire of "Ship Lore," i.e. "Cable." Thanks again for advising equipment that was removed prior to operation Rhine.. I don't think that I will delete these smaller craft. (It looks like my Ship will have all the "Bells and Whistles. "🙂) Again, not 100% historically accurate but I like the look of these bits. (The only ones to know will be you, me and anyone else that reads this information.... 🙂 Yup, I intend to install the Booms "Stowed," much simpler I think.... Of note, my "Super 3D drawings of Bismarck," (Kagero), show the color scheme as of May 27, 1941. This depicts the Ship "Fully Loaded" and Inc. Swasticker markings Fore and Aft.

hof00 Posted February 4, 2023 Author Share #446 Posted February 4, 2023 (edited) Hi All, A reasonable update: So, Rigging is now complete with the exception of the Propeller Guards. I tried so hard but could not perform Rigging satisfactorily without assistance. (Still dealing with the right Rotator Cuff thing....) So, my lady stepped up and gave things her very best, I am so very grateful and very happy with the result! It took about 4 days to complete in +30.0 C temperatures. HOF busied himself with directing operations, passing Tools/Glue as required. 🙂 Joe 100, (Joe), had provided me with Rigging Plans, (Thanks Joe), but I ended up going with the "Kit" instructions, perhaps a little simplified but these I felt were enough. (Instruction sequence was really good and ensured that one did not "Paint yourself into a corner," so to speak. For the majority of Rigging material, I used "Infini" 110 Denier Lycra Thread and Polyester Cotton for Rigging intersected by other pieces under tension. I gave the Boats a bit of a touch-up and the rest of the Ship and gave the Superstructure a dose of air-brushed Vallejo Satin Polyurethane. (The effect was fantastic blending in all touch up paint. Boats installed on thier Skids. Currently finishing up the eight 10.5cm AA Guns and I may get these installed today. Getting there.... Things left to do: 10.5cm AA Gun Installation Interference Grids Aircraft installation Main Deck Railing Bow/Stern Flagstaff installation Accommodation Ladders and Davits Propeller Guards Anchor Buoys (I think that's it.... 🙂) Cheers....HOF.
