Hello I did a short run
74 gun ship:Thanks for the answer. I have Jame Lee and agree that is a really good book. Well, I have now to keep some of my budget for the expensive 74 cannon. I had na eye on these, but scared about the price.
If you want to upgrade kit there's only old Mantua kit of Le Superbe or 3d printed hull from @SZKUTNIKI do not think that I will be able to perform build from sratch in future.
Your last suggestion could be a good choice for me. Thanks you.If you want to upgrade kit there's only old Mantua kit of Le Superbe or 3d printed hull from @SZKUTNIK

Fabulous work Kris:cool: I have seen the CNC machined timber hull production before by Alexey Banarov. However, (I am sure Igor will correct me if I am wrong) Alexey only uses this system to construct hulls for his commissions and does not offer hull "shells" as a stand alone item.

either way if you don't have money for all books I would suggest Timbering Plans in 1/72(it contains plansets from all 3 volumes) + finding a scans of 3rd volume of Boudriot's 74 and buing it when you'll have money
