Today, I'll be preparing the main deck for the installation of the quarterdeck. This process includes installing reeving sheaves and cleats, as well as constructing and positioning beams, ropes, and other essential components. Furthermore, I will be constructing and installing the quarterdeck and a hatchway. It's important to mention that everything I'll be working on today is being created entirely from scratch.
The cleats, hatchway, and deck itself are designed using Fusion 360 and manufactured using my CNC machine.

Wishing you an enjoyable time!

🌊In this video series, I am constructing a model of the Santa Maria sailboat - the largest ship from Christopher Columbus's 1492 expedition. The model is based on a 1/65 scale kit from Amati.

As Amati ship model kits are often simplified for easier assembly, I am making significant modifications and corrections to certain elements.

To gain a better understanding of how to revamp these construction elements, I am utilizing various resources, such as ship modeling materials, online information about 15th-16th century sailboats, and Xavier Pastor's book "The Ships of Christopher Columbus. Santa Maria, Niña, Pinta" from the Anatomy of the Ship collection, etc.

However, due to the limited evidence available regarding the appearance of Columbus's ships, I am allowing myself some creative freedom when building this sailboat model. Some details will be designed in Fusion 36o and manufactured with a 3D printer or precise CNC machine in my workshop.
