the Colonial Schooner Hannah in 1/48 [COMPLETED BUILD]

[shota70]

good evening dear friends
Today I continued with the process of preparing the parts of channels.
I focused on making the supports for the channels and then I made the rings that wrap around the blocks.

In fact all the components are ready and at the moment I am Undecided how to continue the process of all the parts together and the body of the ship.
Dear friends, I would love to receive guidance, advice and if there is also a link to this video it can help.
Thanks in advance and have a great weekend

It looks to me like you have a pretty good idea of how to put things together. Specifically, what kinds of questions do you have about channels and deadeyes?

It looks to me like you have a pretty good idea of how to put things together. Specifically, what kinds of questions do you have about channels and deadeyes?

I would like to receive guidance on the order of operations required for assembly that will lead to a clean and beautiful result. If you know of a video or pictures that show the right process, it can help me. Should you first assemble the board with the supporting angles and only then connect the block to the brass arm and connect it last to the hull at the end of the process?
I hope that my questions are a little more understandable

If I remember correctly, I used copper pins to hold the channels in place, making sure the lanyards did not obscure or cover the gun portals. I glued them first and followed up with the channel supports. After they dried, I installed the deadeyes. I didn’t install channel plates or chains until I could use a line to measure the angle from the spot on the mast where the shroud or stay was fastened to insure the channel plates would show a straight line with the shrouds or stays.

Next I sawed the boards and later I smoothed the boards according to the contours of the shape. I did the sanding with the help of a very successful purchase I made about a year ago, wen's spindle sander. View attachment 246944

Hi Shota,
Always nice to have a new tool and staring using it.
Regards, Peter

thank you very much dear friend

I meant chain plates and the supports go on top of the channels because of the upward tension.

thanks, again

 

[Vfordyce]

I hope this helps. I’m sure there are videos out there, but I didn’t see any right away.

I got these pictures along with a lengthy discussion from modelshipworld.com.

In general, Vic explained everything. I would like to add that the shrouds (pieces of iron that go below the ufers to the body) should be a continuation of the shrouded line. In exceptional cases, when they block the gun ports, displacement is possible. The Vic in the photo shows this.

Is this picture correct? I always learned the chainplates should be in line with the shrouds. Like the left part of the picture. The right part must be wrong to my opinion.

Generally, they do seem to be in line with the shrouds. In this case, the right ones would apparently obstruct the cannon at the portal.

Interesting discussion and some great advice! I will hold thumbs that you figure this out @shota70

Does holding thumbs mean I wish you luck? Is that a European thing?
