Here are some examples of the plans I will be working from. They are a mixture of Polish Shipyard plans and original plans from RMG for Enterprise class ships. I have used the RMG plans to correct some inaccuracies in the Shipyard plans.
It took some time to work the plans up to correct scale from the original PDF, but I finally managed to get it right by printing Shipyard plans at 440% on my A4 printer and stitching together. The RMG plans are printed at 85%.
That done, I have now started milling timber for the frames which will be from Silver Ash (Flindersia schottiana) grown on my farm over the past 40 years.
Although I have reasonable woodworking skills this is my first attempt at building a model ship, so bear with me...
