Bisquine ''La Granvillaise'' - Port of Granville - November 2018

 

[Kerz Atao F14800]

Hello,
A small step by step for making tiny pulleys. For this size I did not plan to make the sheaves.

According to the drawing below I needed 90 caliber pulleys in 1/33 scale.



Shaping a 0.3 mm brass strip



Installation and gluing of the folding obtained on a pear slat 0.5 mm thick.
Decrease in the thickness of the brass band on both sides.
Cutting and gluing of the flanges obtained from a pearwood slat grooved to the width and thickness of the brass strip.



Shaping of the ring and draft of the pulley box.


Pulley finish



The top pulley was miserable and it went to waste.

This one, with the additional sheaves, was manufactured on the same principle as above but the assembly was completed on the fitting ring.

And here is the finished assembly, temporarily moored.

For the details the macro photographs do not forgive.

wonderfull work on the block

Additional Info:
I moved your topic to the area of scratch builds - original it was in the area for kits

Hallo Dan alias @Kerz Atao F14800
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Are you still working on this wonderful model? Maybe you have an update for us?

Hello,
Thank you for this attention.
To tell the truth, I temporarily stopped the construction of the bisquine ''La Perle'' because last November I took out of a box a work started in 2010 and which concerns the realization of a model of the frame of the Artesian.
I plan to finish this bisquine soon and I will not fail to present to you the progress.
Best regards.
Dan
