MOURADATOR Posted July 31, 2023 #1 Posted July 31, 2023 Hello dear new friends I'm new on this forum (from France) I received a Mamoli Britannia model, just splendid My issue is that I don't have the Instruction notice Any chance to find a Pdf or a scan somewhere ? Thank you for your support
Gregory Posted July 31, 2023 #2 Posted July 31, 2023 Do you have the plans? Mamoli kits do not have a separate instruction book. All the instructions are written on the plans. mtaylor 1 “Indecision may or may not be my problem.” ― Jimmy Buffett Current builds: Rattlesnake On Hold: HMS Resolution ( AKA Ferrett ) In the Gallery: Yacht Mary, Gretel, French Cannon
Jaager Posted July 31, 2023 #3 Posted July 31, 2023 As for the request in the title of this post: rather than use something that is a cartoon and out of scale do a site search = silkspan low cost - it used to come in three weights - it or similar products might be available with those options from dealers catering to fabric covered flying aircraft builders. Those dealers may even have the heating irons with a curved surface and a power control knob which would be about the ideal tool for bending wood. allanyed and mtaylor 2 NRG member 50 years Current: NMS HMS Ajax 1767 - 74-gun 3rd rate - 1:192 POF exploration - works but too intense -no margin for error HMS Centurion 1732 - 60-gun 4th rate - POF Navall Timber framing HMS Beagle 1831 refiit 10-gun brig with a small mizzen - POF Navall (ish) Timber framing The U.S. Ex.

allanyed Posted August 1, 2023 #4 Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) There is a great little book by David Antscherl from SeaWatch Books for $5 on how to make realistic sails using silkspan. https://seawatchbooks.com/products/swan-iv-sail-making-supplement-from-the-revised-and-expanded-edition-by-david-antscherl Allan Edited August 1, 2023 by allanyed mtaylor 1 PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.
