Work on the chains continues and is coming to a close. Progress is good. I'm by no means a natural born metal-worker but doing this lot in more or less one go really makes things easier.
Thanks for dropping in!

Are the longer chain links going to get a second nail?

Happy Birthday, Peter! Many more years to come!
Happy birthday!
It is so nice to find you here, Peter. Progress postings of your model seemed to stop on MSW, after a time, and I wondered whether you were still active on the project. Well, it is a relieve to find that your beautiful and meticulous work continues on SoS.
Hi Peter
I hope all is well. I really enjoy your build log as I am in the process of building the Dutch 7 Provinciën myself, although at a smaller scale than you are building the HZM. I hope you are still working on her and would love to see an update.

And big!
I'm planning this moment the same model, look into the log on the German site and learned a lot of making the bulkheads. I ignored the correcties of the 3 last bulkheads on the stern. I want to make it in scale 1/75 so the correction is minimum and hardly to notice. So I will visit your log often. It is real beautifull what you performed to this moment.
wonderful perspective view along the hull
I hope that you are able to make more regular updates of your progress
- although only small steps in your eyes, but highly interesting to follow for us

Hallo Peter alias @Olympic1911Hi everybody,
my Name is Peter and I'm from Germany. Some of you might know about a comtemporary Dutch ship model from the 1660s that was destroyed by bombing in WWII. The model was owned by Kaiser Wilhelm II who was exciled after WWI, hence its name: Hohenzollernmodell, but the model remained in Berlin. It is unknown which ship of the Dutch fleet the model represents.
In 2013 I started to build a replica of this model. This is what my copy of it Looks like now:
The cannons are cast in bronze:
Thanks for checking in.
Peter
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY
How is your work on the Granado or the Hohenzollern going? Any updates for us?
Happy Birthday, Peter!!
Also from my side a Happy Birthday Peter.
