Wow, a remarkable approach to a difficult problem.
DittoIt is such a pleasure to follow your build, Thomas. It is superbly accurate work and is just how it should be done! Your model looks beautiful!
So true Thomas, but modeling with sharp instruments by candlelight adds a whole new level of difficulty.Hi Peter!
A ship model builder can be cut off the electricity, gas, heating, etc. (Energy shortage). But with the old tools we can all still model!
Best regards

Hallo Thomas alias @Thomas MarockeAfter now already three construction reports of the "La Belle Poule" are now active I thought it does not need another? And because I am months behind and build carefully and slowly I do not want to repeat everything and show only certain procedures?
I greet all patient and curious observers!

The jig is held together only by tape. I think that I will have to disassemble the jig again for observation when attaching individual components. In the photo are the tools needed so far.
