Wow... I just watched your video on the HMS Boreas. Now this. A simple rehab of a gun carrage. (smh)The craftsmanship. The push for the highest quality is incredible. Perfection? If it's not, you certainly strive for it. I'm not a modeler, really just a beginner in scratch building railway scenery/shops, buildings. This is inspiring. What else could it be if not? I'm convinced that a person needs a place, a purpose... of their own for having 'quality' in their lives by maybe even 'creating it,' if need be. Your work is exceptional. Even the music you've chosen blends with your work. But you already know all this.
Ohla, I have been considering a subscription to your channel for some months now. The work you do and share is invaluable. Your technique and instructional method is the finest I've seen on TH-cam, irrespective of subject or topic area. My project is nearly 40 years under development and very far from done. But your restoration of Boreas, and, first stage work on Confederacy motivated me to resume work on my HMS Serapis. HMS Serapis required a level of advanced experience. My approach has been to try various methods to achieve results and experiment. Some have worked out well, but others have required second attempts and new approaches. Right now I am making cannon carriages, third attempt and satisfactory. I have 20 completed carriages and need to make 22 more. The next 22 will be more visible and I will be following your technique for this batch. Again, I'm indebted to you for what you do and hope my subscription helps sustain your channel. Also/P.S.: I am interested in your podcast idea.
Thank you very much! I am very glad that you found useful information on my channel. Comments like this inspire me to keep creating content. And I really appreciate your support!
@@OlhaBatchvarov I 11:07 need to mention also that I am a member of a small ship modeling guild in Kansas City. This is my tenth year with the group. Our membership is pretty small (about a dozen), and we are actually having our bi-monthly meeting today. Most of our members are quite elderly and we are losing these talented craftsmen and their knowledge as the years pass. One of our members, for example, passed away about 6 years ago and I was very fortunate to buy some of the best tools and exotic modeling woods from his estate. Many of the tools are the same as what you are using, like the Byrnes 4", a table top drill press, a dimensional sander, belt/disc sander and a tool box full of exactos, files, dental tools, etc. I probably have a dozen dremels and hundreds of specialized grinders and cutters. But again, it is your videos and presentation methods, and techniques that are allowing me to move ahead. I have been watching your videos for years, but for the last two months I watch your videos every day, as I work every day on Serapis. Even though Serapis isn't complete, I digressed a few years ago and scratch-built a Serapis mid-section of my own design. It is similar to other cross-section kits of Victory, Constitution, Essex, but I'm happy that it is one of a kind, I think.
Absolut präzise und feine Arbeit und das nicht nur bei einer Kanone sondern bei jeder Kanone. Einfach eine Kunst. Grüsse aus dem Harz ein schönes Wochenende Frank Galetzka
This is once again an absolutely mind-blowing video Olha :o Totally enjoyed watching it, and really am impressed by your skills, and the attention to detail is off the charts !! This is true Artwork to the highest level !!
@@OlhaBatchvarovlooking back at this great video, I am in doubt. I have the impression that you showed somewhere where you bought the add-on parts such as the rigging hooks, but I can’t find back the information. Could you please tell where you found those (and the black parts going over the barrel to hold it down). Many thx
With this being a restoration and upgrade, where do you find the parts/pieces you use, such as the brass parts and the black pieces to hold the cannons on?
It would be good to show a comparison of the previous guns and the new ones. So that there is an understanding of what was wrong with the previous one.
The look is spectacular, and will be better in the model. The original builder made the gun trucks quite handsomely. (Maybe a couple of bolts through the cheeks are missing.) As a sailor, those round flemished lines vex me. There ought be about two fathoms of running end on the side tackles and a fathom on the train tackle--any Petty Officer worth his salt is going to make that up into loops, and trice it all up with the breeching rope. Which would look a right mess on the model, if being horribly historically accurate. Such are the things with which a historical scale modeler must needs wrestle.
What no flapping turns! Or splicing lol. Twice I have spliced eyes in something about the diameter of your breaching ropes. It was a slow head ache so I understand . Watching you strop the blocks made me wonder when thimbles started to be used on rope. In more modern times the hooks on the gun tackles would have thimbles to protect the rope. To my eye the coils seam wrong for a working gun. The last thing needed underfoot while firing would be a big spinning disc of line. The photos I have seen of the Victory show the tackle lines flaked back and forth with a twist at on end so the line can run free. Flat coils like yours ,being pulled from the outside spin the whole coil and will foul, in the real world.
Fantastic work. You make it look effortless. I would like to know where you get your rigging cord. I’m currently working on model shipways constitution and the cord that comes with the kit is terrible.
@@OlhaBatchvarov Thanks Olha. I checked them out and it was very helpful and didn’t seem too pricey. Here’s an idea, maybe you could do a video on how you make your own ropes. I think it would be very helpful and interesting
Yes, I also noticed this when I was editing the video on the big screen)))) Accidentally, a piece of rope with the left twist was on the coil for the right twisted ropes. I already replaced it but did not reshoot the video. By the way, running rigging can be of both types of twist, to the left and to the right! Only right-hand twist ropes were used more often.
Все тали правой скрутки! Единственная таль, которую я снимала на макро линзу, случайно била сделана из каната левой скрутки. Но увидела я єто только на мониторе. П.С. В реальности бегучий текелаж бил обоих видов скрутки и только кабельние троси - левой скрутки. Советую вам читать более серьезние исследования реальних корабеллов, очевидцев или манускрипти о том как строились те корабли, модели которых ми строим. А не слепо следовать исследованиям и виводам одного моделиста, даже если он бил видающимся модельистом, ему не били досиупни все те ресурси, которие доступни сейчас нам...
@@OlhaBatchvarov Ну я бы не стал так относится к В Монфельду, он и Курти это как букварь, основа всего. А по поводу брюка и талей орудий, они действительно были как левой так и правой скрутки, просто левой считался более гибким все, но если Вам там водолазы подняли секретные монускрипты или вы там пообщались с очевидцами то тогда конечно извините Вам виднее.

You spent more time on that cannon than most builders do on an entire model!! Exceptional skills as always!!!
Thank you very much!
We don't always realize how much work it takes. But the result is sublime!!
Thank you very much!

Thank you!
Vaya trabajo, pero el resultado es precioso! Gracias 🫂
¡Muchas gracias!
Hi, thanks for sharing👌
Welcome 😊
Beautiful, the upgraded gun carriages! Love the level of details! 😎
Thank you very much!
Olha, you skills are amazing!
Thank you very much!

Thank you very much!
Absolutely Impressive work Olha! Thank you for sharing your valuable techniques with us!
Thank you very much!
I'm glad you liked it!

The fixtures you designed for tying off the lines are genius. Amazing work as always.
Well done
Thank you very much!
This was so interesting and inspiring, exactly what I needed❤ keep the spirit and the energy…
Glad you enjoyed it!

Неймовірно круто!!! з нетерпінням чекаю на продовження... дякую Оля💙💛✌️
Щиро дякую!
Goodness me Olha, x 18 you must have the patience of a saint. Long fingernails come in handy.
Thank you!
Fabuleux travail !! Admiratif , bravo Ohla
Merci!
superb !!!!!
Thank you!
Just think there is about 30 parts per cannon. Great work Olha. The H.M.S. Victory has 100 cannons!
Thank you!
With this being a restoration and upgrade, where do you find the parts/pieces you use, such as the brass parts and the black pieces to hold the cannons on?
@@diyhometheaterguy Yes, being new to the hobby, I’m interested in learning for instance where the packet of brass hooks came from.
Just added them in the description under the video...
Интересная последовательность вязки пушечных талей, думаю, процесс будет особенно применим для большого числа лафетов.
It would be good to show a comparison of the previous guns and the new ones. So that there is an understanding of what was wrong with the previous one.
They were not rigged at all
The look is spectacular, and will be better in the model. The original builder made the gun trucks quite handsomely. (Maybe a couple of bolts through the cheeks are missing.)

There ought be about two fathoms of running end on the side tackles and a fathom on the train tackle--any Petty Officer worth his salt is going to make that up into loops, and trice it all up with the breeching rope.

Yes, I will still "fight" them when I install them on the deck...

Great progress! What glue do you use on the ropes? The clear and white stuff
This is PVA and super glues. Which one and where exactly - it's written in the subtitles...
Благодарю
Fantastic work. You make it look effortless. I would like to know where you get your rigging cord. I’m currently working on model shipways constitution and the cord that comes with the kit is terrible.
Thank you!
I make my own ropes. There are good kanaim on the market now, check Syren Ship Model Company - they use good threads for ropes...
@@OlhaBatchvarov Thanks Olha. I checked them out and it was very helpful and didn’t seem too pricey. Here’s an idea, maybe you could do a video on how you make your own ropes. I think it would be very helpful and interesting
Another excellent video, thanks! I noticed the line in the gun tackle is left hand laid. Any reason for thus?
Yes, I also noticed this when I was editing the video on the big screen)))) Accidentally, a piece of rope with the left twist was on the coil for the right twisted ropes. I already replaced it but did not reshoot the video.

Прекрасная работа, однако коль вы сделали тали левой скрутки, то и брюк однозначно левой а не правой, это по Монфельду.

Подрезать колеса у пушек?так себе вариант.
Где ви такое увидели?
Может очистка от старого клея ?
