Ship built names were: Southampton, Minerva, Vestal and Diana

The ship hull and shape was built as accurately as possible to admiralty plans. The hull under the waterline was then removed and the upper parts were simplified in detail at the bow, thickened in the stern, windows exaggerated, and deck detail exaggerated. All this to be able to print out at 1:600 and 1:700.
Contains: The hull and the sails. Does not include the ratlines, flags or rigging string. No supports required on any part of the print.
- Hull (cannons and gunports in this version):
- Sails:
- Split sails with lower mast section – for fdm printing
- Split sails without lower mast section and with a hole for a rod/wire – for fdm printing
- Combined sails with lower mast section – for resin printing
- Combined sails without lower mast section and with a hole for a rod/wire – for resin printing
- Bowsprit mast and sails
- Mizzen gaff/spanker sail
Photos of the completed model are kindly from the make by Carl52 on thingiverse. Grey painted photos are from a 1:700 scale print on an Ender 3 fdm printer.
For assembly, please see the photos on the Intrepid-class 64 gun model (on this site) showing the bowsprit parts and mizzen (rear sail parts) being assembled.
Note, if there are problems with the mast holes in the hull being filled in when printing then try enabling ‘Union overlapping volumes’ in Cura or the equivalent setting in your slicer.
