SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut along the edges of the square cut-

outs in the template to create the first

two gun ports.

Use a weak adhesive to stick the

template to the two strips glued to the

frames in Step A. The edge closest

to the end of the template (arrowed)

should be no more than 1mm away

from the side of the rib.

Glue another 90mm length of 2 x 5mm

strip above the first two.

343

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Remove the template and sand the

outer surfaces of the strips smooth.

Cut away the sections of the upper

strip, following the template.

Cut three pieces of 4 x 4mm wooden

strip, 90mm in length. Glue them on

top of each other, above the brown

planks. They will overlap the 2 x 5mm

strips slightly.

344

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut three 12mm lengths of 2 x 7mm

wooden strip, and glue them between

the walls at the sides of the gun ports.

Cut two 10mm lengths of 2 x 7mm strip

and glue between the inner and outer

walls, perfectly aligned with the bottoms

of the gun ports. You may need to file

the inner walls so that they are aligned

with the strips.

should look at this stage. Keep any left-

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut two 90mm lengths of 2 x 5mm

wooden strip and glue them on top

of the step in the frame. Then cut out

template B-1 from the sheet, and use

a weak adhesive to stick it to the two

90mm strips. Cut along the sides and

bottoms of the squares in the template.

Glue another 90mm length of 2 x 5mm

strip above the first two and cut the

remaining part of the template out of

this strip. Then cut three pieces of

4 x 4mm wooden strip, 90mm in

length, and glue them on top of each

other, above the brown planks. They

will overlap the 2 x 5mm strips slightly.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut lengths of 2 x 5mm brown wooden

strip to fit along the inner wall without

covering the gun ports.

Cut two 10mm lengths of 2 x 7mm

strip and glue between the inner and

outer walls, aligned with the bottoms

of the gun ports. File the inner walls

if necessary. Then cut three 12mm

lengths of 2 x 7mm wooden strip and

glue them between the walls at the sides

of the gun ports.

Cut a 90mm length of 3 x 3mm

wooden strip and glue in line with the

bottoms of the notches in the ribs. To

fill the gap below the 3 x 3mm strip,

cut a 2 x 5mm strip to the correct

thickness, then divide into three parts

so that it doesn’t block the gun ports.

Repeat this so that both sides are at the

same stage.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Remove the six knees from the parts

sheet received with Stage 53. Smooth

them with sandpaper and stain them.

Stain the beams in the same way.

Cut three lengths of 3 x 3mm wooden

strip to fit between the ribs. Glue them

into place as shown, with one centred

between the other two.

Glue three knees on either side, up

against the walls and below the beams.

348

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Test-fit the columns underneath the

beams and up against the strips in the

centre. Adjust their height if necessary

and then stain them. Glue them into

position once the stain has dried.

Cut four 19mm lengths of 4 x 4mm

wooden strip and shape the central

section a few millimetres in from either

end, as with previous columns.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Test-fit the ladder in the square hole in

the uppermost deck. Adjust the length

to match the one shown in the photo,

then stain as with the other parts. Glue

into position.

Glue the seven 10mm lengths into the

remaining slots in the ladder.

Glue 1 x 3mm wooden strips over

the two deck halves received with

previous stages. When dry, cut away

any overlapping strips and smooth

the edges and upper surface with

sandpaper.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Glue a mast support square over the

hole in the deck, making sure the holes

are aligned. Then cut two lengths of

2 x 5mm brown wooden strip to fit

along the inner sides of the square hole.

Test-fit and adjust the deck halves

to fit between the ribs on top of the

beams. Glue into place, ensuring that

the mast hole is aligned with those of

the lower decks.

Glue a 2 x 3mm wooden strip at both

sides of the two strips and the mast

support square. Cut another two

lengths of 2 x 5mm strip and glue in

the square between those from the

previous step. Cut another length of

2 x 3mm strip to fit between the two

longer strips, up against the edge of the

rectangular cut-out. Glue one of the

4 x 6 gratings in the cut-out, at the same

height as the surrounding strips.

352

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Smooth over the surface of the deck

when all parts are dry, and then stain as

with the previous decks.

Glue a 90mm-long, 2 x 3mm strip

at either side of the deck, up against

the ribs.

The photo shows how the assembly

should look at this stage. Keep any left-

over material, as it will be used later.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Smooth the surfaces of the barrels

received in previous despatches, and

then paint with clear varnish.

When dry, paint the barrels with the

same wood stain used on the rest of

the model. You may want to wipe

away some of the stain to prevent them

becoming too dark.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

When the sides are glued in place,

fold the open ends in and glue them in

place. To achieve a more realistic look,

paint the canvas with a diluted solution

of wood stain.

Place one of the 15 x 15 x 20mm

blocks in the centre of one of the 60

x 70mm sections of canvas. Fold over

one of the 60mm sides, apply glue,

then fold the other side over and

glue down.

Wrap some 0.8mm brown thread

around the block, as shown, and loop

the ends over each other where they

meet.

356

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Apply glue to the knot, and cut the

excess thread away when dry.

Repeat this process for the

remaining four blocks.

After looping the ends over, turn them

at a right angle and pass right around

the block. Tie the ends in a knot in the

centre of the block.

The photo shows how the barrels and

blocks should look. Keep any left-over

material, as it will be used later.

underneath. Cut out the gun ports in

the new strip.
