jaerschen Posted April 15, 2014 #1 Posted April 15, 2014 Hello guy's I will start my build of the Triton again. Christian (AnobiumPunctatum) and I are started our builds in 2009. But we built the hull in single frame and not in double frame based of the original drawings (Christians idea). It was originally planned to use the MSW frame drawings. But I realized during the build of the fore cant frames that the MSW frame drawings were not suitable for a single frame build. That's why I had a break for about 4 years. Now I pencilled all the frames new and would like to continue the build of the frames. After the frame build I'll use the MSW drawings for the remaining build. Now there are some photos from The keel, stern apron etc. More photos are following soon Ferit, WackoWolf, NMBROOK and 13 others 16 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.

Ferit Posted April 17, 2014 #4 Posted April 17, 2014 Hi Juergen, It's pleasure to see you again on a work. This is another wow as expected. But what are you thinking about Leopard? jaerschen 1 Best Regards… Ferit KUTLU Under construction: Frigate Berlin (Brandenburg Navy) Hope: Frigate Wappen Von Hamburg (Brandenburg Navy)
jaerschen Posted April 17, 2014 Author #5 Posted April 17, 2014 Hi d_yur, Tim and Ferrit Much thanks for the kind comments. Hi Juergen, It's pleasure to see you again on a work. This is another wow as expected. But what are you thinking about Leopard? Yes, I was very busy last time, but now I have more time to build at the models. I would like to build at both models. Next time, preferred at the Triton. I spent very much time in that project. When would you like to continue your Berlin?

jaerschen Posted April 17, 2014 Author #6 Posted April 17, 2014 If I fit the transoms I had a big trouble. The reason was a wrong angle at the top-view plan. On the following photo you can see the correct angle and the discrepancy. If I know that it was possible to fit transoms. mtaylor, sonicmcdude, WackoWolf and 14 others 17 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.

jaerschen Posted April 19, 2014 Author #11 Posted April 19, 2014 Hello guys Thanks so much for the kind comments and the warm welcome. I'm always glad to see fellow soldiers from MSW 1.0 As I said I was very busy the last years and have now much more time for model building. I think to start the frame build next week. Will we meet next week at the exhibition in Wilnsodrf? Sure Christian, I'm looking forward to seeing you again.

jaerschen Posted April 24, 2014 Author #13 Posted April 24, 2014 Hi here are photos of the progress before the long break. You can see the first attempt at the first photo based on the MSW drawings. Afterwards it was clear to me that the Frame-Drawings were not suitable for a single frame build. d_yur, EdT, Kevin and 10 others 13 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.

harvey1847 Posted April 25, 2014 #14 Posted April 25, 2014 Hello Juergen! Simply beatiful. Certainly you finish every single frame before erect it. Like some one says around... "treat each part of the ship as itself, you´ll finish more ships in a day than others in a whole live" or something like that... Very impresive work. keep going! daniel. jaerschen 1 In the shipyard: HMS Triton 1773. POF. 1:48. Daniel On the computer: R.A. Principe de La Paz. POF. 1:48. Daniel
the learner Posted May 4, 2014 #15 Posted May 4, 2014 I would think that the drawings could be adapted to single frames but remember that even the single frame construction had some sistering.I am sure the community would love to see you draw up a set of frames for the triton....start a whole new build! lookin good keep up the good work KennethGag and jaerschen 2 Cheers, GuyThe LearnerCurrent Member NRG,SMA Current Build: HMS Triton 1:48 on line
jaerschen Posted May 5, 2014 Author #16 Posted May 5, 2014 HI, thanks for the likes and the nice comments. I would think that the drawings could be adapted to single frames but remember that even the single frame construction had some sistering.I am sure the community would love to see you draw up a set of frames for the triton....start a whole new build! I thought them also that the drawings could be adapted to a single frame build. But the position of the double frames are not the same to the single frames. I believe that's why the MSW drawings were not suitable. I have a little problem about the frame drawings. These are hand drawn. Only what I can do is to show some photos. wangshuoliurui 1 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.

AnobiumPunctatum Posted May 5, 2014 #17 Posted May 5, 2014 It depends on the set of drawings you got from the NMM. I have an old copy which has some discrepances to the MSW design of all double framws. Last year I bought a new color copy of the as built drawing at the NMM. This drawing fits really well with the MSW drawings For a "single frame build" you have to draw all cant frames by yourselve. These won't work with the original ship. For the midship frames I think it's possible to use the MSW drawings. At which frame it makes sense to draw new frames I can't say in the moment. Last weekend I started with redrawing the lines. Then I will check which frames I need to redraw to build the model as I dream from the beginning of the community project. I don't know how much time I need but I hope that I have the first results until the end of the year.

jaerschen Posted May 6, 2014 Author #20 Posted May 6, 2014 Much thanks Tim But that's not the correct work area because I made the photos before a little exhibition. The correct work area is not so tidy.

jaerschen Posted October 14, 2014 Author #25 Posted October 14, 2014 Hello Guys Here's a little update of my build. I install the aft Cant-Frames at the moment. You can see my practice of the following photos. I hate it to do the same for several hours. That's why I decided to produce a Frame, install it and than produce the next Frame and so on. At this way I had a bit of change. To saw out the parts I use a band-saw with a special saw band for slightly curves. I hope that the next update is showing the finish of the frame build.
