Hi Jules,
We posted at the same time, perhaps you missed my question. You have seen the gent-model at close distance. Does that model have the same detail in treenailing as the hz-model?
second question related to your post: witsen an Van IJk describe the normal framing, but do they explicitly mention the positioning of the frames square to either keel, waterlinr, or anything else? I quickly glanced over, but couldn't find.

Hi Jules,
You have seen the Gent-model. Is there any treenailing/bolt pattern visible that can indicate the position of the frames in that model?

Hallo Vlad,
In an other thread Fred explained how the main stay-blocks were righed, using not one, but two lanyards.

Found it on agostini's Italian site: 140 issues, at 8 euros per issue, and there is some rather cryptic (at least when translated by google) text on postage per issue. That's a rather high price to pay without seeing what's in the box. On the other hand, when it';s true what Fred writes, that this one is made with historical accuracy, this will be the best Vasa ever....Luckily I have no space left to build and display a model of this size. Would be severely tempted if otherwise Jan

I understand your hesitation: buying something large and expensive before you can actually check what you are buying isn't feeling quite right. Also: I was looking for a total-price of the whole series, but couldn't find it. Just the price of the first two or three part-sets. Agostini does not have a name for historical accuracy....

Hello Fred,
I have the impression that in allmerchandising, the 1:10 nodel fromyour museum is used. Have you seen any pictures of the agostini-model itself?

i only know how it is done in the Batavia. There are a couple of ringbolts, and the shrouds are attached to the six ringbolts. (Using a simple eyesplice.)

Hi Alexander, Yes, I knew you were one and the same But as I have been puzzling on the gallion of the Prins Willem ,and the same discussion popped up, I thought, why not ask here. I did have resonable grades in math, but still, I am struggling to discover in which direction the railings of these gallions are curved. In Prins Willem I know for sure (as I tried to make the thing) it is as you tell with Wasa: the curves you see in the foto's are the result of a curve in only one direction, seen from an angle. So, most probably that is also the case with Wasa. Jan

Hello,
In an other forum we discussed the construction of the gallion of dutch ships of the17th century. Main question: are the railings of the gallion curved in only one, or in more directions? Both 'parties' referred to Vasa as an Example. I tend to beleive that the sides of the gallion are flat, and not curved, so the railings are curved in only one direction. However..... I also discovered that it is quite difficult to conclude from fotographic material or drawings whether or not the ralings are curved in more than one direction, or not. Is there anayone here who can shed light on this issue?
