HMS Holland 1 - 3D CAD model in the making

[DrSchmidt]

So I got this nice Plate 1 and the usable copy of the John Lambert plan (thanks Jason for that!). I'll try to create a 3D CAD model of the HMS Holland in a way, so that I can make a cut-away display model in 1:35 scale of it. Started with the slightly sharper Plate 1 and so far I have the spindle-shaped hull with their L-frames.

Andreas,

Looks like you have found a 2D plan that will work to create your model of the HMS Holland 1! I am sure looking forward to this build!

That's sheet 2 of the John Lambert plan.

You can get a full copy from-

Excellent…. that's what I was looking for.

I ordered the plans, and if they are good, I'll get them scanned and then I'll work of them. Better than internet material, no matter how good it is...

So I'm putting a hold on the project till the plans are here.

Cheers Andreas

Took a while, but thank to the nice hint by Mr. Subculture I got hands on the John Lambert pans of the HMS Holland, got them scanned and now I'm good to go....

[DrSchmidt]

Getting the bulkheads and floors done....

[DrSchmidt]

More progress on the internal structure....

[DrSchmidt]

And some more....

[DrSchmidt]

Nice Sunday aftrenoon....some European League Football and drawing the Otto-Engine of the H.M.S. Holland

[DrSchmidt]

Slow progress...

I ran into this excellent 3D model of the HMS Holland by Mark Alloway:

https://blenderartists.org/t/hms-holland/1100038

As I'm missing source material for the Engine I contacted him to learn where he got his information. He was very helpfull, and I'm happy to say, that I got some very accurate drawíngs of the Otto engine . That's a big differenece,....

[DrSchmidt]

Working of good drawings makes a huge difference....

[DrSchmidt]

Some more progress on the valve covers and the cam shaft supports.....

[DrSchmidt]

A bit of progress on the Otto motor of the HMS Holland. Some rocker levers, valves and retaining springs.

[DrSchmidt]

Som emore details, drives, cam shaft....the position of the rocker levers with respect to piston posiion is approximated....
