SJSoane Posted March 20, 2013 Share #62 Posted March 20, 2013 Many thanks for this terrific re-run of your log, Gary. It is an inspiration to all builders of accurately framed and detailed models on this site. I second druxey's observation. Your work continues to inspire me.

garyshipwright Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share #65 Posted March 31, 2013 Thanks every one. Seems I have been a little distracted with other things, such as life in general and figure I needed to add another up date. This time its with the bulkheads in the hold. There was a total of only four in Montagu hold starting with the bulkhead that separated the magazine. Going aft one runs in to the bulkhead that enclosed the front part of the spirt room, followed by the fish room and finally the bread room. Wish I had installed some barrels in the hold along with some pig iron and gravel that they would of used to steady the ship. One item that one should be able to make out is the pillars underneath each of the orlop beams. Do hope you enjoy the photos.

SJSoane Posted April 1, 2013 Share #68 Posted April 1, 2013 Hi Gary, This is a great way to go back and revisit details that were long covered up by later work. It is a great reminder of your excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail, including in the research!

garyshipwright Posted April 2, 2013 Author Share #69 Posted April 2, 2013 Thanks Guys. Here's another update and this time we head back fwd on the forward store rooms. It does look a little confusing, but have added a layout of her store rooms. If any of you have any question's but take a look in Peter Goodwin book the sailing man of war, page 113 fig 4/2. A couple of items in his drawing and Montagu are diferent. Item-A is really the scuttle going down to the main magazine. He call's it the cartridge scuttle which was really on the port side across from the scuttle going down to the main magazine and access to this was in the passage way to the light room.

the learner Posted April 7, 2013 Share #74 Posted April 7, 2013 Gary, how did you cut your steps in the stern deadwood? mill or by hand? do you have any photos showing the process? Guy Your very welcome Ron and thank you Joe. Here are some photo's of her keel, stem, stern post and deadwood along with her apron and building board. A couple of the photo's show the templates that were used to construct the parts and pieces.

garyshipwright Posted April 7, 2013 Author Share #75 Posted April 7, 2013 Hello every one and thank you very much. Sorry about not getting back to you sooner. Hi Guy. Seems my log is a whole lot shorter sir and seems that I didn't put in any photo's of building up the stern dead wood. I do have photos showing the templates of the parts and pieces and how her stern deadwood was mounted in a groove that was milled in to the last piece of her keel. there was a male part to this cut on to the bottom of the dead wood itself to help me align this so it would be center on her keel. Hope you enjoy them sir. Seems I just may have to look and see what other items I may of missed in rebuilding her log and thanks Guy for letting me know about this one.

mtaylor Posted April 11, 2013 Share #76 Posted April 11, 2013 Fascinating as always, Gary. Just curious.. how difficult was it to get both sides the same? Or was it a function of close and not exactly the same?

jaerschen Posted April 23, 2013 Share #77 Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) Hi Gary, I miss the images of your Alfred so much. Especially this one of the Main Wales. I know you are showing the detail that I need at your images. Where the Main Wale is ending at the Stern is the detail that I need at the moment. Could you show the Images in your log please? It will be a great help for me. Actually I am building the Leopard 1790 and I believe there were very similar to your Alfred about the planking I looking forward to see more of your fantastic model Kind Regards Juergen (Newbie at MSW 1.0) Edited April 23, 2013 by jaerschen Quote Juergen Actually in progress: 50-Gun Ship HMS Leopard 1790 POB in scale 1/64 HMS Triton 1773 POF 1/48 Finished: Brigg Irene (ex.

garyshipwright Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share #79 Posted April 24, 2013 Hi Mark. As far as getting both sides even, the template helped with that plus lines that were marked across the top of it. Believe it or not that was one of the items that worried me the most and after carefully marking it out worked out fine. Thanks Joe. Have been a little slow at posting due to life getting in the way along with the Honey dues, such as flowers and yard work. One must keep the misses happy which in turns keeps me happy. ;o) Hi Juergen. Sorry about the delay sir and thanks for your kind words. Here is a couple of photo's and hope they help you on the wale at the counter. Hoping I get around to posting more in the very near future.

garyshipwright Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share #86 Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) ]Thanks every one, your kind words mean a lot. Here is another update on the Orlop deck going aft from the forward store rooms. One item you will noticed is the fore jeer capstan step that was fitted between the forward and aft sail rooms. Reason for the this was to enable the fore jeer capstan to be lowered down to the orlop deck making room for the long boat on the upper deck above. You will also noticed the hanging magazine, which was used to hold cartridges for some of the upper deck guns. The cartridges were made up in the magazine and then moved to the hanging magazine until needed. One of the things about this was that it was constructed to hang below the orlop deck, which I believe to keep the cartridges dry. Other items that you will noticed is the cable tier and a couple of photo's show how the grate was made to fit between the pillars, which help to keep the anchor cable contained. One will also see the shutters above the well that would some what help air flow around the timber's in a very wet area in Alfred's hold. Any question just ask away.
