You are doing something that the only thing I can do is admitting that I do not have the talent or patience to do a arsenal ship like your.
WOW, that is model building in perfection.

Nice to see you again here Kar I have been wondering about your absence. About your BUILD the is ABSOLUTELY nothing to complain. a through MASTERWORK. I do not know your Tool Room and tools being used, but I have something in my mind, that you are like me: As little of the professional tools. It can be seen, that you are a Wood lover and know how to use it in your favour. When I was a Boy and young, on my mother side they were all Fishermen's and sailors, where on my after side Carpenter- my father and brother- with a big carpenters tool room. your work reminds mi on my youth
It seems, that the time is running every month faster - already so long time ago, since the last update
Here some more impressions of the interior works of the rooms
you can see here the top end of the rudder
the view done to the rudder tiller
the complete system in top view
and here the cover over the top of the rudder

Use of a model: with this dramatic foto-shop-scenery the danish journal "Historie" illustrated the stranding of the "Printz Friderich" when her wreck was found in 2018.
(She ran aground in these minutes 240 years ago near the danish island Laesoe / Kattegat, 28th of September 11.00 p.m. Central European Time. 7 lives lost, round about 570 saved within the next days, the crew generated 8 additional babies the Laesoe priest remarked)
BTW: I am not sure whether this ist the right thread for my post, please excuse if so.

One really attractive thing about stranding at islands like Læsø: All the men are at sea most of the time so all females, married or not, are easy prey
Though, according to the church book, only 4 bastard offspring was baptized 9-15 months after the stranding. But of course the sailors may have produced also quite a few legitimate children in addition. And who knows if a husband or two have decided to acknowledge paternity even if they were far away from home at the time of conception
. Læsø is a rather small island (today less than 1800 inhabitants). Imagine that womenfolk all over the island had to house more than 500 virile sailors

Dear kalliboot,
what a extremely high standard of craftmanship. It's overwhelming. I follow with enthusiasm.
