I am looking for a good book on the details of 18th century Swedish ships (beyond Chapman's two books and the photos in the digital museum). I am hoping for advice equivalent to Zu Mondfeld including:

Walings, anchor planking, nail patterns, rudder styles per time period, deck planking patterns (margin plank, joggling, waterways for different classes of ships/decks/time periods), binnacles for different time periods, capstan designs per time period, anchor designs, hatch coaming details, when composite masts are used, stunsail hardware details, ladder details, flagging, paint schemes, hull coatings, cannon types, carriage design, tables showing ships boats and anchor issuance for warships, sweep tables and design, etc. Rigging I can get from Marquedt.

That's my wish-list, anyway!

Canon de 4 Gribeauval or 4-pounder w
Can you explain a little bit more, what you wanted to tell us with your words?
I am in moment not able to combine the french Canon with swedish ship model building (mentioned in your header of the topic.......
 
Oops, fixed. The original post included the comment that the Swedes appeared to have used French Gribeauval cannon barrels, but I did not know if they had a special Swedish version of carraiges.
