02 – Hull Frame
Hello Modelers:
Thank You for the good response to my introduction of the Jauréguiberry project. I hope the work does not disappoint. Construction of the frame continues. As usual, I fastened the waterline deck to a piece of fiberboard, while building up the underwater hull frame. The parts are made with card doubled in thickness, except for many of the horizontal decks. The waterline deck is doubled card, but the remaining decks above and below the waterline are single thickness. Images 9, 10 and 11 show the underwater hull turned upside down. Then I released the frame from the fiberboard (Image 12) and put it into its dock, right side up. The remaining images show the addition of the cross members and horizontal decks above the waterline. There will be six horizontal decks. The real ship had 7. The one I left off would be located at the very bottom along the keel. I decided it was not worth the work. Historical Image: This is a nice image of one of the predecessors of Jaureguiberry. It has the same layout for the primary guns, with similar tumblehome features. This appears to be the battleship Marceau, but I am not certain. It pre-dates the development of the enclosed turret shell. Notice they covered the guns with canvas when not in use. Not a very beautiful ship, but an exceptionally sharp and clear picture. In 1920, she was being towed to France for scrap, when the ship became grounded off the coast of Tunisia. The wreck remained there and was visible into the 1930s. Regards, Mike |

What a wonderful project, combining master craftsmanship with a fascinating choice of subjects!
I really like the idea of the internal structure printed with graphics! It provides an opportunity to really get a three-dimensional feel for the interior of the ship. Using period blueprint-style graphics makes it even more attractive. What a shame that interior will be covered up! I think a model with internal construction like this would look great with half of the hull covered, half exposed to show that intriguing interior. Thanks, Michael, for sharing all the photos and insights for this excellent project! |

Thanks Art. I have to admit, the printed details on the frames and decks has caused me to spend some time contemplating the interior. Particularly in the area of the engines, as you can see in the attached image. I have no plans to open the interior and create some detail. However, John MGD does it with some of his work.
