I also worked on the quarter galleries.

working on the gun ports at my local county fair demonstration display.

I am pleased you will follow this build. I do not know your experience level as a scratch builder, but who knows if you might like to see my YouTube channel. I have 60+ videos there. @gregbaumgartner8257.

One side of the Ohio planking is 95% done. Some touch up at the bow still needed. Since I do not glue the edges of my planks, you may notice is some of the photos that the wood is a yellowish color. I "paint" the hull with a watered down wood glue that seeps into the seams to do that. (I...

More photos of the Pennsylvania can be seen on this post. https://shipsofscale.com/sosforums/threads/uss-pennsylvania-1837-second-build.15760/page-4#post-484380

The Ohio and Pennsylvania had the most decorative sterns of the American liners. The first 3 photos are the Pennsylvania. The other is the Ohio.

I was not really sure if I would post the build of this ship. To be honest there does not seem to be much interest in ships like this here. Too many other fascinating and fantastic builds to follow. But, I have been putting my ship model builds here for a long time. I am 70 now and God only...

I have used solid pieces on the stern as in photo 1 and 3. I believe that with what you have supplied I will be able to get a shape or use hause pieces to form the stern. I have use hause like pieces on the bow.

My objective it to create the red lines on the revised plan at the stern and bow of my ship model. Here at the stern I wish to add 2 new bulkheads 45 and 46. How do you plot the "red lines"? Here are photos of my attempts thus far. I get stumped as there are no lines above 6 as circled in...

I am trying to understand how to plot bulk head shapes at the bow and stern of a sailing warship using the three given views on the plans. Are there any tutorials on the forum that cover this? I have tried using the search feature with no luck.

I have used flour sack material.

A copper nail head is about 3/8 inch wide. In 1/72 scale that is around 1/128. virtually invisible. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09WGYP2VR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title Adhesive backed copper foil/tape.

I am posting this announcement here in hopes the moderators will know where it should properly go. As I believe many of you know, I was/am donating my 11 ships to the US Nay museum system. Unfortunately their 2026 budget has already been allotted, and so they may be only able to accept 2 of...

Thank you. I have been following your Constitution build very carefully. I have saved a lot of it for future reference.

USS Pennsylvania 1837. Done. Burned at Gosport Harbor April 1861 to avoid capture by the Confederates. I do not know if there is a finished Models gallery on this forum. If there is I will post better and more photos there.

Starboard davits on the Pennsylvania. Still need to belay them.

Pennsylvania's starboard anchors are on.

Thank you Roger! I appreciate you taking time to comment. Happens so rarely these days. Not because folks do not want to, it's just that unless you have a question about something in the photos, there is no need to.

Almost done with rigging.

Chris has given this model away to some one already, not me unfortunately. :(
