mtaylor Posted March 5, 2016 Author #1598 Posted March 5, 2016 Thanks for the "likes" and comments. When I laid the keel, I also cut the stem, the stern post, and the rudder from the same chunk of wood. I've been busy with other things recently, but did spend a lot of time researching the rudder and sorting things out. I found that many of my assumptions and some of what is on the plans wrong. Here's what I've found (including from those responding to a post on this)... 1) As built in 1755, there's minimal vertical taper. It wasn't common to do this, but not uncommon either. Which makes me wonder that maybe it was a shipyard decision. The rudder follows this. 2) There is no fore and aft taper to the rudder. That one caught me by surprise. 3) There is a cavitation/turbulence groove. This would have been added when the ship was rebuilt/overhauled at some point later in time. It would have been present in 1778 when captured. 4) The fore side of the rudder was beveled at about a 45 degree angle. The pintle and cudgeon<SP?> straps were recessed only at the fore side of the rudder and at the aft side of the sternpost where the straps bend to the side. They were recessed as on some other nation's ships. 5) No spectacle plate. There's an eyebolt with rings on each side just above the strop hole for the emergency steering. The strop hole is nominally rigged to two eyebolts. So.. I machined the rudder blank as shown in the pictures below. There's two mortises in the top of the rudder, one for the normal tiller (which on Licorne is in the Great Room) and one for the emergency tiller which is on the quarterdeck. I'm off and running with the metalwork. I've started silver soldering and wondered why I didn't do this years ago. It's pretty fast and gives a nice result. paulsutcliffe, Seventynet, cog and 48 others 51 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned)
paulsutcliffe Posted March 5, 2016 #1599 Posted March 5, 2016 Hi mark Nice machining and research on the rudder, would it not have been made out of three or four pieces though like the English style, the rudder on syrius appears to have actually had five pieces with the fore and aft bits softer wood in case of damage and easy replacement Paul Canute, Omega1234, CaptainSteve and 4 others 7 Quote The clerk of the cheque's yacht of sheerness Current build HMS Sirius (1797) 1:48 scratch POF from NMM plans HMS Winchelsea by chuck 1:48 Cutter cheerful by chuck 1:48 Previous builds- Elidir - Thames steam barge Cutty Sark-Billings boats Wasa - billings boats Among others 😁

The main piece was oak and the other two were pine. I'm planning scribing the lines in as they're straight and not tabled like the English ships. Unfortunately, I don't have anymore of the original boxwood that used when I cut the blank otherwise, I would re-cut. What I do have is noticeably different so... for eye-appeal, I'll go with what I have.

mtaylor Posted March 6, 2016 Author #1604 Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) The "likes", comments, and questions/challenges appreciated..... So... pushing the envelope... I've reworked the rudder and added some metalwork. It looks a lot better. The metal banding will have the appropriate amount of nails in it before this piece is ready to mount. Edit: I forgot to add... I cut it apart using a thin jeweler's saw and then glued it back together using some colored glue. And a couple of quick shots of the rudder irons/straps in work. I started by annealing the straps. I silver solder the tube, cut-off the excess, and clean it up with a file. For the pintle, a 1/16" brass rod will be epoxied into the tube. The cudgeon will not have the shaft, naturally. I should note that these are not cleaned up yet. So far, so good. I've got a pile of brass pieces now pickling in some vinegar. I'll rinse well and let dry overnight. I'm thinking of using paint on these or hitting the local gunshop tomorrow for some Birchwood Casey's. In testing, Blacken-It did nothing for the silver solder. I've got some discards painted and drying and I'll how they look.

mtaylor Posted March 8, 2016 Author #1617 Posted March 8, 2016 Thanks for the likes and comments. Just a few shop notes... the metal bands at the top are black construction paper. Even though they will be hidden, I just wasn't getting the look I wanted from brass. I still need the nails. Ah silver soldering... I'm still working on the rudder straps. I made about 30 of them and discarded all but the best ten. I'm happy with what I kept but I should probably practice some more. I tried some Blacken-it I had lying around and when it hit the silver solder it put a green sludge down. So tossed the Blacken-it and the test part. I've ordered some Birchwood Casey Pewter Black... they say good for brass and solder... If that doesn't work, I'll paint them with some flat black primer. Primer has a bit of texture. I'll need the blackening anyway when it comes time for cannon but that's a ways off yet. riverboat, cog, toms10 and 9 others 12 Quote Mark "The shipwright is slow, but the wood is patient." - me Current Build: Past Builds: La Belle Poule 1765 - French Frigate from ANCRE plans - ON HOLD Triton Cross-Section NRG Hallf Hull Planking Kit HMS Sphinx 1775 - Vanguard Models - 1:64 Non-Ship Model: On hold, maybe forever: CH-53 Sikorsky - 1:48 - Revell - Completed Licorne - 1755 from Hahn Plans (Scratch) Version 2.0 (Abandoned)
