thanks Joe and Jim.
bit of a break in posting build progress but had been sorting out a new laptop and getting the voice recognition program to work properly First three photos are various views showing the shelter deck transverse beams in place and the start of the hull frames being put in place starting from just in front of where the foredeck starts. The fourth is of the bow seen from the side and with frames in on the bow you can start to see the shape of the hull. With the fifth showing the start of the shelter deck deck plates going down. |

The first picture bow section shelter deck is completed and the pontoon hatch covers been made and are in place.The second is off the shelter deck plating around number four hatch and the engineering room.The third the midships shelter deck plating with two small watertight hatch covers of number threehold to the sides of hatch openings on their runners and all the frames in place.Next looking at the forward number one hold bulkhead. In the background you can make out the aft number two hold bulkhead and nicely illustrates the rise in height of the forward end of the ship to allow the bow to clear the sees better.Finally there is no fixed number three shelter deck hold although the centreline plate is fixed in position to allow a temporary bulkhead to be put in place if on the third hold is needed otherwise is just a big member to hold.

shelter deck watertight bulkhead looking forward from the engine room.
looking forward from the stern with the top deck longitudinal and transverse box girders in place you can just see the ribs for the sides of number five hold in the bottom of the hold, I chickened out fitting these until I put in the deck beams as their is no shelter deck in number five hold and so it was hard to correctly locate the ribs. an oblique view of the same from the bow's the fitting out of the engineering flats with the provision stores on the starboard side and on the port side engineers and electricians workshops.note the rather large empty space where an engine would sit. back to the bows and fitting of the longitudinal deck beams. bit of a bad blurry picture of the Stern again longitudinal deck beams and transverse beams between the steering flat and the counter I think is a rope store is in their. |
