Mike 41 Posted September 24, 2023 Author Share #31 Posted September 24, 2023 Rudder The rudder consists of five CNC cut pieces that fit very well together very well. The rudder and stern post needed to be beveled at 45 degrees and the top of the rudder needed to be trimmed and shaped at the poop deck. Progress photos.

navarcus Posted October 3, 2023 Share #38 Posted October 3, 2023 When I look at a book about the replica Nonsuch built by the Hudson's Bay company there is a picture of the captain sitting in front of a very substantial rudder trunk in his cabin. The picture below gives a hint that this area of the Sultana replica may also have a rudder trunk. Archi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike 41 Posted October 11, 2023 Author Share #45 Posted October 11, 2023 Display stand / Finished Pictures I used white oak and bloodwood for the stand and my pool table for the photos background. The Fubbs Stern Section was the largest section model I have made, three months from start to finish was possible due to the precision parts in the kit by Mike Shanks and the artwork by Jodie. ccoyle, GrandpaPhil, 72Nova and 3 others 6 Quote Previous Builds: USS Pennsylvania - (1837) Scale: 1:64 Cross Section Continental Galley Washington 1776 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
