    The Bounty was build for the movies (Marlon Brando) full scale, exhibited in Miami, but some morons took her out and thanks to idiocy, sunk in a storm, because it was about as seaworthy as a Sieve. There is a video on you tube from her sinking. The idiot captain went down with her, because he wanted too.

    That's just great work ! I would have suggested you use one sixth instead of one fifth as a scale because you would have had a lot of possibilities to add humans on it, one sixth being a standard scale, but it's a bit too late now! Anyway, it's just a tremendous work it seems! Congratulations!

    I am wondering if it was an early 60 gun 3rd Rate Line of Battleship on the American Colonial Station. During American Revolutionary War a Prison Hulk. 1600s she been at Boston Harbor with HMS Princess Katherine, 82 gun, 2nd Rate Line of Battleship, later known after 1693 HMS Ramilis, 86 gun, 2 nd Rate Line of Battleship. Wondering if that a captured Frenchmen shallower draft for shallow rivers.

    Although a credible model of a 3rd rate ship-of-the-line this is NOT ‘Pandora’ which was a 24 gun frigate of the 6th rate. Some of the sparring looks a bit suspect as well. It’s a model being delivered to a client, why the dramatic music?

    I’ve been close to a 50 Pounder when firing actual rounds not just a black powder charge. Was at a cannon and mortar shooting competition in the USA one year to go watch them. You feel the concussive force of the shot going off in your chest. It knocks the air out of your chest. It was a magnificent time. With a a round in them they are even louder.

    As a person with a long association with church bells and in particular the Whitechapel bell foundry what you call crown top are technically called Canons. Bells cast since the late 19th century in UK for church bells are now flat top bells I just thought I would let you know. Why they are called canons I don't know because they do look like crowns.

    I enjoy your videos and recently noticed on your sales e mail a Suez light. About 20 years ago I visited a company in Lancashire making brass nautical lamps, I think called LEIGH, don’t quote me , as the grey cells are not 100%, it was an interesting company. They I believe manufactured the LEIGH LIGHT for aircraft sub hunting during the war and also the Suez light. Remember the dam busters using 2 lights pointing downwards to determine height as radio altimeters were not too accurate over water, well the SUEZ light was mounted on the prow of the ship and alumina both banks so at night the ship could be kept in the centre of the canal. Hope this helps and keep up finding things.

    Before AGA, Pintsch's Patent Lighting Co (London) produced a range of lamps installed in lighthouses, lightships and buoys. Developed by Julius Pintsch of Berlin, these were fuelled by oil gas as opposed to AGS who used Acetylene. I have a book illustrating some of Pintsch's marine products. Incidentally, they supplied what was the largest buoy at the time, designed to moor the liners Mauritania and Lusitania. During 1915, the British company divested the German shareholding and dropped the Pintsch to become purely Patent Lighting Company. Their other manufactures were devised for lighting railway carriages - AGA did likewise and their lamps outwardly appeared to be badge engineered Pintsch. I've actually remanufactured a Pintsch railway lamp for carriage restoration projects!
