Bruce Posted September 28 Report Share Posted September 28 New to the website- have just built my first ship. HMS Euryalus (Trafalgar and a prison hulk at Chatham, for boys below 14 from 1825.) my wife’s 3rd great grandfather, William Atwell, was incarcerated before being transported to Australia in 1837. I clearly have a lot to learn. Used American walnut, Huon pine, and cherry for the hull. Brass welding rod for cannons. Looking forward to doing better on the next one.

Onni Posted September 28 Report Share Posted September 28 Welcome Bruce. It’s a ship and it’s in a bottle! That’s how it begins. Your first effort looks way better than mine ever did. Onni. IgorSky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
