JacquesCousteau Posted December 28, 2024 #61 Posted December 28, 2024 There's some useful information and leads to follow in the conversation here: It touches on some useful source books for modeling British warships of the era. You may also want to check if the original plans for the Triton or other vessels of its class are available online (wikimedia has a ton of British warship plans), they would probably give you a good idea of the mast locations and angles. Nice job on the windows! mtaylor 1 Current Builds: Lancha Chilota Coasting Sloop (1:32) [Scratch] Completed Kit Builds: Model Shipways Dory (1:24); NRG Half-Hull Planking Kit (1:48); Midwest Maine Peapod (1:14) Completed Scratch Builds: Xochimilco Trajinera (1:32); Juana y José Cross Section (1:32); Lake Chapala Canoa de Rancho (1:32)

Are you using the plans here on MSW from the group build? IF so, check the group build area for the full hull model and have a look the logs.

You might look through some of the "finished" logs and see what they did. That's about the only advice can offer. However, I do believe that at that time, most British frigates basically the same design for the wheel.
