WackoWolf Posted May 8, 2014 #2 Posted May 8, 2014 Wish the pictures where the right way round, I got a sore neck trying to look at them. I remember I had made the same mistake one time when I posted pictures of a show I was at. Wacko Joe Go MSW :)

allanyed Posted May 9, 2014 #11 Posted May 9, 2014 Bruno, Your workmanship is beautiful. I do have one question regarding the rabbet on the keel. Should it go all the way to the stern post? Of the few NMM drawings I have seen, it usually stops several stations forward of the stern post. See attached. Sorry these are not super clear. You can find them in the collections section at the National Maritime Museum site for a clearer version. Crescent is from 1779 and Mermaid from 1749. Thanks for sharing your build. Allan PLEASE take 30 SECONDS and sign up for the epic Nelson/Trafalgar project if you would like to see it made into a TV series.

Bruno Siljeg Posted May 9, 2014 Author #15 Posted May 9, 2014 Allanyed,I understand your question, unfortunately I can not find drawings in NMM..
allanyed Posted May 10, 2014 #17 Posted May 10, 2014 Ciao Bruno There are a few that I found on the NMM website in the collections section using "24 gun" as the search term. I did not see any of the Pandora. Then again, maybe Pandora was not the same as the others regarding the rabbet. No matter, your model is looking extremely good!

Bruno Siljeg Posted May 10, 2014 Author #18 Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) Hello Allan Thank you,I think that there is only a draft Pandora,ship probably is not made, however can not be found,otherwise, the keel respectively rabbet go to the ends of the keel. Bruno Edited May 10, 2014 by Bruno Siljeg

dvm27 Posted May 10, 2014 #20 Posted May 10, 2014 Narim's Pandora, one of the sweetest models I've ever seen, does not depict the rabbet step.
