Thank you very much Uwek, Zoly, NMBROOK..

The long strips as a whole guarantee more precise joints, especially when narrowing boards. In this activity I try to inspire the work of the Czech modeler Petr Šimek.

la renommeé - modelships/modely lodí
A beautiful model of the Derfflinger flute was created in his shipyard years ago.

Petr is a great modeler and I know his page - once I tried to invite him to be member here at SOS and to share his wrk here also, but unfortunately I did not get a reply......

Petr is very helpful and communicative, only the presentation on the forums is a time burden. As far as I know, Renommeé presents its building on the French website. He started the Czech model forum, but he also can't keep up. Ship-1

Deck looks great! And everything else, of course. What kind of wood did you use for deck planking? Pardon me if you already answered that question earlier in the log.

Thank you. Maple wood deck. It is light and does not darken over time. O.

Very accurate work - on the gratings as well as the mast partners. Very good.
How do you make the treenailing? Are they "real" wooden nails? also very accurate nailing pattern - Great

Heinrich · Jun 11, 2020

Without doubt that is the cleanest and neatest model ship deck I have ever seen.

Ondras71 · Jun 11, 2020

Thank you very much Brewbrarian!!

The whole hull waxed outside..

I'm making new gratings for the front deck. I tried a new style of production with a 1 mm cutter on one side, it works and it's more accurate than a saw..
