POF La Palme (L'Amarante) Corvette 1744 1:36 (Ancre Monograph) by Tobias

Hello Frank, I will not show the keel lifted. I don't know many model builders who do this either. I don't think it looks pretty. As far as planking goes, I'll definitely do that.
Sorry Tobia I just indicated a construction phase, all here and nothing special
 
Very good and accurate work on the joints - how you cut the curved lines, that there is absolutely no gap in the joint ?
Are you using a jigsaw? Dekupiersäge?

Hello Uwe, first of all, thank you. I pre-cut everything with the scroll saw and then work the curves with the spindle sander until they fit. It is very tedious because you have to work very precisely. However, the result is quite satisfactory.
 
Have a wonderful good Sunday evening everyone. A little update, this week I started with the rear, I can tell you it's pretty tricky, well that's how I wanted it ROTF. I had to redo frame 52 and 53 on the port side. The following error happened to me with the No. 52: I misinterpreted the plan and milled the notch for the fashion piece a little too deep. For No. 53, I glued the double frames mirror-inverted.

Schöne akkurate Arbeit - wunderschönes Holz - was braucht man mehr, um eine schönes Modell zu bauen :cool:

beautiful accurate work - wonderful timber - what does a modeler need more to build a beautiful model

Hello everyone, I need your help. It's all about the type of nails. I understood that the nails on the connections are tree nails and the rest are steel nails (square).

Unter 4 steht es und ich interpretiere diese Info so:
Die Elemente der Spanten sind jeweils mit drei metal Bolzen (mit quadratischem Kopf) pro joint verbunden. Nur oben an den Lucken sind diese durch hölzerne ersetzt

Under point 4 it is described and I interpret it in such a way:
The elements of the frames are every time connected with metal bolts (square heads) per joint. Only at the height of the gunprts they are changed to wooden treenails

here you can see in red the metal bolts and green the wooden treenails - every time 3 bolts together

it is better to see at such a cross section - here I marked the bolts in the same colour - once more every time three per joint - means 6 bolts per frame element

BTW: the english translation of the Amarante was done by our friend @Gilles Korent so I am pretty sure, that he can compare his translation, my interpretation of the english text and the original french text from Gerard Delacroix ....... I hope my interpretation is correct

BTW: square head bolts can be very good simulated by shoe nails, which I used first time on my last model of the Granado section

Hello folks, well in the last 1 1/2 weeks I couldn't do anything because a gastrointestinal flu completely logged me out. Here you can see my attempt to build the first frames, well it is more difficult than it looks because I had to realize that the frames tend to warp when gluing and the double frames then no longer fit exactly on top of each other. Let's see how I can improve this technique of gluing. Maybe someone has a tip. Today I will first rebuild the upper part of the shipyard (waterline no. 9). Have a nice sunny weekend everyone, spring is just around the corner.
