remaining from those cut in Stage 106.

Mark holes at the points shown in the

photo, 2mm in from one side.

Use a 1mm drill bit to make a hole at

each of the points on the chainwale.

Then sand it smooth.

Remove five knees from one of the

knee frets and smooth with sandpaper.

Glue the chainwale onto the side of the

hull, below the top row of gun ports

and just aft of the foremast hole.

Glue the five knees to the gunwale

and chainwale at the points indicated by

the arrows.

443

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Drill a 2mm hole in each of the three

gun ports below the mizzen chainwales

on both sides of the hull.

Glue the port foremast chainwale and

knees to the hull. When the glue has

dried, paint both foremast chainwales

and knees with wood stain.

Retrieve the six dummy cannons from

Stage 109, and test-fit a cannon in each

of the gun ports drilled in the previous

step. Then apply glue to the end of one

of the cannons.

Ø 2mm

444

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Glue the remaining five cannons into

the holes in the gun ports.

Insert the glued end of the cannon into

the hole in the gun port.

The photo shows how the assembly

should look at this stage. Keep any left-

over material, as it will be used later.

445

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Retrieve the stern gallery decoration

from the previous stage and hold it

against the stern, as shown, aligning the

edges of both.

The decoration is made from a metal

that is easy to shape. Align the upper

edge of the decoration with the top

of the transom and carefully push the

sides in to match the curve (inset).

Clean the surface of the decoration in

preparation for painting.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Paint the background of the decoration

with blue paint, leaving the border and

floral parts gold.

Paint the edges and detailed sides of

the decoration with gold paint. You

don’t need to paint the back, because it

will not be visible when it is glued to

the transom.

Use the same brown paint used for the

quarter galleries on the inner border

of the decoration. Wait for the paint to

dry before proceeding.

447

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Retrieve the five gun port frames and

doors from Stage 110. Glue the parts

together and paint the insides of the

doors with red paint.

Hold the decoration up against the

transom to check that it still has the

correct shape.

Glue the five gun port frames to the

five gun ports (arrowed).

448

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Glue a dummy cannon into each of

the drilled holes along the second

row of gun ports. Repeat this process

for the second row on the other side of

the hull.

Recover the 18 dummy cannons from

previous stages. Drill holes in the

centre of each port, along the second

row of gun ports with a 1mm drill bit.

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 ™

Retrieve the eyebolts supplied with

Stage 79. Using a 0.75mm bit, drill a

hole at the point shown in the photo.

Apply glue to the end of an eyebolt and

insert it into the hole.

Drill another 0.75mm hole at the point

shown on the right and glue an eyebolt

into it. Test-fit the eyebolt first to check

that it doesn’t project past the inside of

the gunwale.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Drill another hole, just in front of the

mizzen chainwale, and glue an eyebolt

into it.

Drill another hole and glue another

eyebolt into it at the point shown.

Retrieve the 0.15mm thread from

Stage 110. Cut a piece of thread about

100mm in length. Pass the end of the

thread through the loop in an eyebolt

until the eyebolt is in the centre of

the thread, and tie an overhand knot

around the loop.

451

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut a 100mm length of thread, and tie

it around a 4mm block, as shown.

Place a 4mm block over the knot,

above the eyebolt, with the hole

positioned closest to the eyebolt. Pass

the two ends of the thread around the

groove in the block and tie in a knot at

the top. Apply glue to the knot and cut

away the excess thread.

Holding the block with tweezers, twist

the thread around. Apply some glue

to the twisted thread to prevent it

from unravelling.

452

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Drill a hole, and glue the eyebolt and

block from the previous step into place

at the point shown in the photo on the

right. Repeat for the other side of the

hull.

Tie the ends of the thread to the loop

of an eyebolt and cut away the excess.

The photo shows how the assembly

should look at this stage. Keep any left-

over material, as it will be used later.

453

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Have the blocks, the 0.15mm thread

and eyebolts ready. Prepare 16 double

blocks with eyebolts in the same way as

Steps E-F from the previous stage.

Drill eight 0.75mm holes on the sides

of the foremast hole, as shown.

Drill seven 0.75mm holes at the sides

of the mainmast hole and glue blocks

and eyebolts into place.

Glue five blocks (red arrows) and three

eyebolts (blue arrows) into the holes.

Drill six holes around the mizzenmast

hole, and glue four blocks (red arrows)

and two eyebolts (blue arrows) into

them, as shown.

455

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Mark 25mm lengths along a 2 x 4mm

wooden strip, and then mark eight

equally spaced points along each of the

lengths. Mark 12 of these lengths.

Drill four holes in the poop deck, in

line with the gunwale. Glue a block into

the second hole and an eyebolt into

each of the remaining three. Repeat for

the other side of the hull.

Separate the 25mm lengths from

each other and drill a 1.5mm hole

through each of the marked points.

Smooth the ends and slightly round the

corners of each of the pieces. These

are the pinrails.

Glue three pinrails aft of the

mizzenmast hole in the same way as

those in the previous step. Repeat for

the port side.

Glue three pinrails to the inside of

starboard side gunwale, aft of the

foremast hole, below the railing and

between the gun ports. The holes in

the pinrails should not be obstructed.

Repeat for the port side.

should look at this stage. Keep any left-

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Cut 15 20mm lengths of 0.5mm

brass wire.

Take a 5mm deadeye and pass one of

the 20mm lengths of wire around the

groove in the side of it. When the two

ends of the wire cross over, use pliers

to twist the shorter end around the

longer three times.

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Insert the wire into the first hole of the

port foremast chainwale. Bend the wire

on the underside of the chainwale to a

right angle (see next step).

Cut off the shorter end of the wire and

straighten the longer end. Make sure

that the holes are positioned as shown

in the photo.

Hook one end of the chain over the

end of the wire, as shown.

459

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Apply a little glue to the end of the

chain to secure it to the loop.

Use pliers to loop the end of the

deadeye wire around so that the chain

can’t come loose.

Cut the chain to the length shown on

the right. Pass a 1mm drill bit into the

last link of the chain and drill a hole

into the side of the hull. Repeat

Steps B-H to add a second deadeye

and chain.

Ø 1mm

SANTISIMA TRINIDAD: Step by Step ™

Fit the 5mm (red arrows) and 4mm

(blue arrows) deadeyes and chains to

the foremast chainwale and side of the

hull. As you can see, the lengths and

angles of the chains vary to avoid the

gun ports.

Lightly hammer a nail (received in a

previous stage) through the end link

of each of the two chains and into the

drilled holes, to secure the ends of

the chains.

should look at this stage. Keep any left-

over material, as it will be used later.
