jablackwell Posted September 26, 2015 Author Share #122 Posted September 26, 2015 Much of the mast work is complete. I am now building some tools and such to make rigging a little easier.

jablackwell Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share #123 Posted October 25, 2015 Been working somewhat slowly on the foremast shrouds and stays. In the times when I am not working on the standing rigging, I am putting some trials into the making of sails with SilkSpan paper, and having some success. I am following some of the posts by Blue Ensign on that sail making topic found here on his logs: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/152-le-superbe-by-blue-ensign-heller-plastic-built-as-le-praetorian-after-boudriot/?p=16686 If anyone has comments on sails in general, they are most welcome here. I am particularly interested in how people decide to let them hang: full open, furled, partially furled, etc, and what the practices were on regular sailing vessels. So without further ado, here are some images from the most recent build steps. The sail making is going well: some PVA glue watered down and mixed with ochre paint. They take a lot of paint/glue to fill... then when they dry, are very taught.

jablackwell Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share #126 Posted December 3, 2015 All, An update (it's been a while).... The whaleboats are almost done. I have been making their masts and wrapping SilkSpan sails around them. They look good... but I have learned that.... SilkSpan sails will not look all that great on the model unless they are furled. They appear much too translucent. I experimented with using pencil to draw in lines and details... too dark. I then tried a thin white ink Sharpie to do the same... better, but not great. In short, the material is the right thickness but so thin as to be too translucent. Options: Go with the SilkSpan and just furl the sails. Do not use SilkSpan: find a very thin cloth some place, a cloth that is to scale. No very likely. Do not rig sails at all. I am pondering. ~john dgbot 1 Quote Builds: U.S. Brig Syren - 1803 - Model Shipways - First PoB Build Sopwith Camel F.1 - 1916 - Model Airways - Not a Ship!, Completed Kate Cory - 1856 - Model Shipways - Second Build, completed Sultana - 1767 - Model Shipways - First shipbuild, completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jablackwell Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share #138 Posted September 2, 2016 Thanks Michael for checking in. Always nice to have folks check into the log.

jablackwell Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share #139 Posted September 8, 2016 Got some serious work done this week before having to get back to teaching classes(!): finished the cutting-in tackle and rigging. What an interesting workout this ended up becoming. Applying the correct balance of tension is key to this one. Some images follow. I worked on the starboard side first, then the port. By the time the port side was complete, I had to go back and re-tension the starboard side again. It ended up being somewhat iterative, but looks quite good in the end. Now it's time to work on the stays! ~john dgbot, ccoyle, hamilton and 2 others 5 Quote Builds: U.S. Brig Syren - 1803 - Model Shipways - First PoB Build Sopwith Camel F.1 - 1916 - Model Airways - Not a Ship!, Completed Kate Cory - 1856 - Model Shipways - Second Build, completed Sultana - 1767 - Model Shipways - First shipbuild, completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jablackwell Posted September 15, 2016 Author Share #140 Posted September 15, 2016 Finished the standing rigging today! Huzzah! Now I must get back to working with wood to make spars and such for the running rigging. I am very happy to have done the cutting-in work first... it would be very difficult to add that rigging later on in the process. Rule: read ahead in the instructions!

jablackwell Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share #141 Posted September 25, 2016 (edited) This has been a busy week for the old Kate Cory build! Having finished the cutting-in tackle (** thanks to all who chipped in to help with some of that! **) I began work on the running rigging. Jibs first then staysails followed by the mainsail boom and gaff. I decided to place the gaff up the mast, even though this would normally not be the case with a sail-less ship... normally it would be down by the boom. Also, without vangs on this vessel, I had to pin the gaff into the main mast to prevent it sloshing around all over the place. Here are some images of the progress. I see light at the end of the tunnel! ~john The extra whaleboat is there just to give some precautions for scale and location of the boom... it has't been permanently mounted yet...

jablackwell Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share #142 Posted September 28, 2016 Mainsail boom and gaff are now in place. Phew! Also got the flag halyard in there for the finishing touches later on. Now to the foremast yards, then the lashing of the whaleboats.... Things learned this time through: use longer tweezers that have a flat grabbing area capable of holding onto thread with some strength. ~john A view of the whole ship as it stands today. Just the stern section here to show the boom and gaff in place. Getting all those lines tensioned properly was a bit of juggling. The boom topping lift was a piece of work!

jablackwell Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share #143 Posted October 1, 2016 Been working on the fore course yard. Things I have learned in this exercise: - Keep lots of mini clamps hanging around to hold onto the jack stays while they are being glued along a straight line onto the yard. - CA glue is sometimes really helpful! - Read the directions and confirm with the plans, again and again. Take notes of all the little items, holes, bands, eyes and blocks that need to be added to the yard before even getting close to the mast. - Britannia metal is soft....thin piece bend and then break easily. Sigh. - Waxing lines heavily allows them to keep their shape. Using a separate cloth to vigorously rub the wax into the line (friction = heat = melting wax into line) works well. I used this for the foot ropes. Through all that, I think it's looking pretty good! ~john ccoyle, Robin Lous and dgbot 3 Quote Builds: U.S. Brig Syren - 1803 - Model Shipways - First PoB Build Sopwith Camel F.1 - 1916 - Model Airways - Not a Ship!, Completed Kate Cory - 1856 - Model Shipways - Second Build, completed Sultana - 1767 - Model Shipways - First shipbuild, completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jablackwell Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share #144 Posted October 9, 2016 This past couple of weeks, I worked on the foremast course spar and all the trimmings. I am also trying out some new photography methods... and, while I am not impressed with my work in that regard, it still more-or-less shows the spar and its various riggings. I need to figure out a better lens with depth of field to match the scale of the model. Things learned in this stage: - Make sure all things needed are attached or done to the spar before getting it onto the mast. - Relax. Breathe a lot between attaching lines and making knots. Take time off between stages of rigging. - While I rigged this to be operational on the model, I am no longer wedded to that idea! There are points where a model has to be made more robust. Here are some images. Sorry about the darkness and blurriness in a couple. I'm working on that! ;-) ~john GuntherMT, Overworked724, ccoyle and 1 other 4 Quote Builds: U.S. Brig Syren - 1803 - Model Shipways - First PoB Build Sopwith Camel F.1 - 1916 - Model Airways - Not a Ship!, Completed Kate Cory - 1856 - Model Shipways - Second Build, completed Sultana - 1767 - Model Shipways - First shipbuild, completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am working on the fore topsail now - the chain sheets had me going through all sorts of tribulations, which I think I got figured out.

jablackwell Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share #147 Posted October 30, 2016 A busy last couple of weeks for the Kate Cory. I was able to finish all the fore yards and get the running rigging completed. I am learning that having thin fingers would help a lot in ship modeling! Alas, my fingers may be long, but they are not thin! Tools to the rescue. I got an old model paintbrush, removed the brush and added on a needle which I then clipped the eye off (in half) leaving a nice little pusher-type-tool. Next steps? Get all the little rope coils in place. I have about half done right now... and to do so without making a big mess of the installed rigging. Maybe I'll make some more tools for the job. Here are some pics of the latest stage. So close! I can see that I need to think about a case now. ~john russ, hamilton, modlerbob and 1 other 4 Quote Builds: U.S. Brig Syren - 1803 - Model Shipways - First PoB Build Sopwith Camel F.1 - 1916 - Model Airways - Not a Ship!, Completed Kate Cory - 1856 - Model Shipways - Second Build, completed Sultana - 1767 - Model Shipways - First shipbuild, completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jablackwell Posted November 14, 2016 Author Share #148 Posted November 14, 2016 All, I present to you the completed Kate Cory! It has been a two-and-a-half year long build, with a couple of stumbles, well, a lot of stumbles, some pretty amazing errors, and a lot of learning! Thank you ALL for all your help in so many ways, from the simple to the complicated, from the esoteric to the obvious. Every day is one to grow by. Without this group... I would not have gotten this one done. Really. In this last section of the build: I completed the running rigging, added flags, and lastly rigged the whaleboats into place. I wanted to be a little different, so placed one of the whaleboats in a position down alongsides as if being lowered into the sea. Obligatory images below. I did my best to stop the aperture down a lot to get as much in focus as possible.
