LE ROCHEFORT - Harbour yacht from 1787 1:36 by Tobias (Monograph by ANCRE)

Hi everyone,

let's continue. Well, what can I say? This whole thing is pretty boring for you. I don't want to show you every single row; that wouldn't make sense. But I've already built myself some longer parallel clamps—larger ones, longer ones, and smaller ones. This way, I can now reach the planks more easily for tightening.View attachment 570800

There’s nothing boring from you Tobias, they look great.
 
Those clamps are a work of art in themselves.

A perfect example of the beauty in "Form follows Function".

Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Brad, they work quite well.

Thanks Roger, it's nice that you see it that way, though some others might already feel the same. I'm struggling with the planking.

Perfection is never boring :).
Thanks Paul, whether everything is perfect remains to be seen. I still have this work ahead of me at La Palme and can learn from one or two mistakes.
