USS Ranger - Corel

[Pfälzer]

Hello everyone,
I would like to introduce you to a small kit from Corel that I have been working on for the last three months.
As usual with Corel, the wood is of excellent quality and plentiful. The same goes for the rigging.
However, I have to criticise the cast metal parts, as they are of poor quality and break easily.
The construction plans are, as is also typical for Corel, somewhat unusual and require careful study. However, the assembly instructions are very detailed.
The canvas, which I did not use, seems a little too thick, but is of good quality. 
However, I must point out that the representation of the gaff sail in particular cannot be used as a template, as it is simply incorrect. 
In addition, the construction plan contains a somewhat hidden reference to the yards, but does not mention the sails.

All in all, it is a nice kit that is fun to build, but not necessarily recommended for absolute beginners.
However, this is typical for this manufacturer.

Best regards

Hallo zusammen,
ich möchte euch einen kleinen Bausatz von Corel vorstellen, an dem ich die letzten drei Monate gearbeitet habe.
Wie von Corel gewohnt, ist das Holz von ausgezeichneter Qualität und reichlich vorhanden. Dasselbe gilt für die Takelage.
Die Gussmetallteile hingegen muss ich etwas kritisieren, da sie von minderer Qualität sind und leicht brechen.
Die Baupläne sind, wie ebenfalls typisch für Corel, etwas ungewöhnlich und erfordern eingehendes Studium. Die Bauanleitung hingegen ist sehr detailliert.

 

Auf Englisch, bitte! 🙂
