keep doing waht you are doinf dear , you are a massive inspiration to us all, you push boundaries of the details only very few are like this !!
Thank you so much 🙂, I will
Wow your work is out of this world. I love all the detail. You are amazing. If I may ask, is there a possibility that you are selling these ropes on-line?
Thank you very much!
But I don't sell ropes! It's a very slow process and just not worth it, plus this kind of work will kill my own modeling...
@OlhaBatchvarov not a problem. I understand that it is alot of work.
Are there categories for different sized threads? By that I mean do the lower sails require heavier ropes than the topsails? Is cotton thread better than poly thread? Your videos are superb and the lessons they teach are the best. I've already learned a lot from watching all these videos and I still have many more to go. Pete
Of course, the biger the load (the larger the area of the sail), the larger the diameter of the rope. I used cotton ropes on my first model and the last one. I prefer 100% polyester thread for rope making. They do not react to changes in humidity, as cotton threads do. The most important thing is that they are not "hairy", and cotton gets hairier every year...
Thanks for the info. I'm working on the 1:78 Cutty Sark. Lots of pulleys and ropes there. It's great fun to see how other's do their work and yours is particularly interesting. @@OlhaBatchvarov
The only time I went to Mystic to see the Charles W. Morgan, she was under repair and closed off to the public. I was so dissapointed I could not help but cuss up a storm about the whole long trip down there for nothing. I was overheard by a pudgy lady in old fashioned clothing and she came up to me and my wife and invited us aboard for a quick unguided look see. My mind was blown that day, my friends. My mind was blown.
I love this museum very much and I visit it very often...
That's another level 😳
💕
Thank you!
Hi Olga, first off all thanks for your amazing videos. A splendid source for modelship makers like me. I have a question: On original ships the rope for the shrouds and standing rigging were cooked in tar to make them more durable. This gave these ropes a dark brown/green dull (not shiny!) look, which is what I want for my Sovereign of the Seas, but I just can't figure out how to do that. Do you have an advice or trick how to accomplish that? I would be very grateful.
Thank you very much!
I am really happy that you like my work!
If you want to get the most natural color - you can paint a light rigging in brown. I painted with bitumen varnish diluted with turpentine or real tar (but it's hard to find) is also diluted with turpentine...
I painted the rigging on the Bounty:
ua-cam.com/video/yPNciJznNck/v-deo.html
@@OlhaBatchvarov Thanks for your reply Olga. Bitumen varnish is indeed hard to get. However I found out that in the Netherlands they sell high quality liquid waterbased paint in pretty much all the colours so I/m free to experiment to get the color by mixing colours and steeping the ropes. That should do the job also. For your interest, their website (also in English): www.royaltalens.com/en/products/ecoline/bottles/?productCode=1125P
@@janspeyer5887 Jan, when I do rigging I use white cotton thread then stain it to the color I need. Every country has something different but I use gunze paints thinned 90/10 or inks for panel lining if I am doing a generic color I already have. Then I go over them with powder for highlight and the slight texture. Tamiya weather sets or similar or artist chalk. the powder will give it the flat look. A very thing spray of flat matt seals it all and still stays flexible.
Sometimes you will be lucky and find that perfect thread and color combo and just grab it. making these look old and used, is I find a little harder as making the wash for them is a little more time consuming.
@Olha Batchvarov Cool design. wonderful work. thank you.
Great work! I just loved Mystic Seaport, I hope to get back there one day! :)
Thank you!
I also love Mystic Seaport!
Hi Olha, I build my own machine. And have a question about the second part of your video when you start the second motor to twist the rope. Is the first motor turning to? when you move the coil to the right side. Greetings Stephan
Hello, Stepan!
Yes, when you turn on the second engine, the first continues to work. Otherwise, the cable would not have the same density along the entire length!
@@OlhaBatchvarov Thanks for you're quick response. Great, I tried it and it works. I now have a beautiful rope over the entire lenght. Regards Stephan
That's amazing!! 👏 I came back to your channel for some inspiration on making a workspace but it will be much smaller, and definitely no ropewalk for now.
Оля, доброе утро. Не подскажете, где в Америке можно приобрести нитки Гутерманн, которые Вы используете для изготовления канатов. Спасибо.:-)
Я так и не нашла, но мне гдето на стене сообщества под фото с нитками кто то написал магазин с нитками для шиться, пост бьІл примерно год назад...
Спасибо, гляну.
Do you ever use beeswax on your rigging lines?
It is not needed at all for polyester threads. But I didn't use it for cotton ropes either - I prefer a lighter. Because after waxing, you can't glue this rope and dust sticks to it very quickly. Therefore, the rope becomes even more "hairy" right on the model and you can't do anything about it!
@@OlhaBatchvarov wow! Thanks for the heads up. Take care, and keep those videos coming. 👍
Where do you buy your thread from to make your ropes?
Can you supply rope for models 1/64 scale all sizes ? Please let me know as the rope I have now is not of the quality that you have.
Technically - I can, but practically ...
I do not make a rope for sale because it is a very slow process and expensive. I still did not find an analogue of German Guterman threads here. There are many similar, but thin, as Guterman E121 - No. I do not know when I can go and buy a new batch of material for ropes... If I count all these expenses (including tickets to Europe), it turns out to be an unrealistic high cost!
Is the single motor turning in opposite direction to others?
Both motors can turn either way.
Я так и не понял, почему нитки обратно не расплетаются?
В конце капля циакрина или узел.
@@OlhaBatchvarov а если такой длины не нужно. Отрезаный кусок тоже прокапать или обвязать?
👍❤
Прапор України)) Не очікував!!
Він висить у мене на самому почесному місці)))
Is there a reference for making the rope from how many strands to rope size and per scale? I am building a sixth rate sloop swan class 1:48 scale but finding premade rope from 1" and up is literally impossible.
There are several books with rope diameters for different classes of ships, but they are all based on DAVID STEEL's tables (he actually gives Circumference). Therefore, you need to convert it into diameters, and then into your scale. I have a video overeview in my video library - issue #122. This is in his third volume...
Amazing skills. Where can i purchase that ropewalk machine you use in your videos?
This is a homemade machine. Try to search on the forms, sometimes model makers offer services for making such...
I just found this video and my jaw dropped when I saw the quality of your rigging detail. I've never seen anything even close. Do you make every rope you use or do you purchase anything (finished rope, not thread)? Thank you!!!!
I have not seen any manufacturer that can make tight twist ropes starting at 0.18 mm (0.007 inch) in diameter. And I'm not even talking about the left twist for cables and the right for ropes, as it was on real ships...
That's why I spent several years creating the perfect ropewalk to fully meet my needs!
So what you've created in your workspace is a scaled down version of traditional lines manufacturing back in the days of sail, only to satisfy your needs in supplying you with proper rigging. That's brilliant. What a great solution to an enormous obstacle.
Thank you! Yes, it was a long way until I got this machine)))
@@OlhaBatchvarov its a piece of genius. I've had to use a marlinspike to rove & weave line, and its a big chore with heavier manilla or synthetics. Superb look.
Olha,
Nice job on the ropewalk. You do beautiful work. Going to check out your other videos. Tom
Thank you very much!
I know it isn’t a competition but I really think you are one of the best model ship builders on UA-cam. And I have watched a lot.
Thank you very much!
as a consumed video watcher (instead of working by myself..) i totally agree with you..totally
Great to see how your ropes are made. The small details makes the perfection of your models!
Thank you very much!
I absolutely agree with you, quality ropes are 40% of success to get a quality model!
Hi Olha great video as always. Can I ask what threads do you purchase to make you excellent rope. Thank you
Thank you!
I buy threads for overlocks which can be twisted both to the left and to the right (Gutermann E121)
@@OlhaBatchvarov thank you for replying, I look forward to your next video
I used lego gears to build my rope walk for my first ship modell.
That was my plan too, but I found a craftsman in time to cut aluminum for me...
Hi Olha, I'm recently a new subscriber. Happy to have found your input. I thought I was the only one who put lights in my models, but there you were with that carrack, and now instructions on how to make ropes. I haven't been at it for years but I have some nice models and want to get back at it. I'm so inspired by your skill. Salute
Welcome aboard!
I'm so glad you liked my content!
Your videos are fantastic. I have been following your builds for a while now. Your rope work is amazing. I was wondering if you would be able to do a video showing your techniques and how you do rigging and everything in detail? That would be extremely helpful! Thanks for the videos!
I will definitely do it!
@@OlhaBatchvarov oh that will be great!! Thank you!!
My gosh, I have been to Mystic Seaport many times. When I was in school I read a book about the Charles W. Morgan. I never thought back then that I would actually set foot on the real ship. Back in the late 70's and early 80's the Morgan was refitted and I was able to watch the progress over several years. One of the guides, a Mr. Willet got to know my wife and me very well and when we would visit he would give us great detail on the work that had been done since our last visit. His personally guided tours were the best. This video brought back some great memories.
Mystic Seaport is my favorite place - I often go there because I live nearby. This is the best maritime museum I have ever seen!
Did you build that machine or purchase it from somewhere?
It was built for me by another modeler based on my design!
@@OlhaBatchvarov oh ok. I wish there was a way I could purchase something like this online. Can't seem to find anything similar to make my own rope.
Ну, вы девушка, блин даете, все это то что вы САМИ делаете очень круто, даже ни знаю как ясней выразиться.
Стараюсь))) Спасибо!
It's absolutely amazing. Can you tell me please, what kind of thread and colours are you using?
Thank you very much!
I using Gütermann Е121. Usually standard beige and dark brown. By the way, these threads can be painted (bituminous varnish diluted with turpentine) ...
@@OlhaBatchvarov Thank you very much for your fast answer. Unfortunately this type of thread is not available in my country but i think it's the same as Güterman Skala 240
Great job ! Thanks for sharing. I would like to know when you know you have to stop the twisting ?
This was found out experimentally - I have serifs along the shelf for different diameters (as well as with what weight)
Моі вітання Оля . Прохання : чи можна зробити ще короткий опис процесу , крім відео роботи. Дякую.
Дякую!
Я вже зробила детальне відео з живими субтитрами, так щоб можна було обрати мову автоперекладу. В плейлисті NECESSARY TOOLS - відео #3. Я не можу вставити в коментар живий лінк бо Ютюб його заблокує...
Best ever! Many towns had hemp fields and rope walks…. now only seen in history books and few museums. Now you make one! Bravo
Thank you!
İ have a question nice work again, 👏👏👏 axiullary motor ( end of the rope) is that necessary? Because i research rope makers dont use a second motor like your tool and their turning ways same or opposite direction? And their RPMs same or difterent? Can you write details please have a nice day
If you want to make long and dense ropes - this can be done only in a horizontal position and only with an additional motor! I tried different similar machines from colleagues. Having gathered all the useful qualities, I modeled "my perfect ropewalk" - and ordered from a master who works with aluminum and makes tools to order! And yes - the motors must rotate in different directions but twist the rope in one direction ...
@@OlhaBatchvarov thanks for your answer, i will make my own rope machine, you must keep upload educational videos 👏👏👏
What type of thread are you using for the ropes (the tan ones at 4:00) ? Is it waxed to help hold together or is the motor tension enough for that? Very ingenious set up with the motors at either end , well done👍🏻
This is a 100% polyester monofilament that can be twisted both to the left and to the right. I buy them in different colors...

I have to ask, where do you get the large spools of thread?
I usually buy them at professional sewing stores.
I'm looking for Guttermann online now. You show a type and three colors of thread so I'm looking for them.Don't find many threads with any texture to them. I also see why you don't sell rope. Good point there. I love your assistant. Ha! @@OlhaBatchvarov
I built that machine from LEGO Technic and it works perfectly, thank you for inspiration!
That's great!
Hello Hakuna,
i read that you built this ropemachine with LEGO. Thats a great idea. Please, can you send me some images or maybe a video? Or you have a link for me?
Best wishes to you and your familiy
Oli
HI OLHA your modelling is way beyond excellent. Can I ask what thread do you use for your rope. Thankyou
Thank you!
These are Gutermann overlock threads (100% polyester)
Can I ask, did you buy that machine or make it?
This is a custom-made machine for me!
Being a model railroader primarily, I was looking at it thinking it could be built using a model locomotive motor and controlled with a tethered speed controller used in the hobby. A section of track from one of the larger scales could be used as the guideway, and a railcar truck could form the base of the, well, truck! Very neat device she has there!
@@tomt9543’d use Lego Technic, with a 3D-printed drawing plate for the truck.
The drive motor would be one of the really old 9V train motors with the big black and yellow control panel, so I could change the speed, and I’d likely provide a bit of tension on the truck by linking it to the afterturn machine with a weighted pulley: that way it coils a bit tighter.
Mystic Seaport is a very cool place to visit and you can spend weeks there not see everything it has to offer. Your rope machine looks state of the art. When I was much young 50 + years ago my brothers and I made a 'rope machine' to twist twin into rope. Had a lot of fun with that machine.
I really love this museum and often visit this place!
where can i get this machine, please please pretty please ??
I'm afraid it's nowhere! You have to build it yourself!
@@OlhaBatchvarov thats cool fund some online simpler one compare to what you have but , you made my day watching you, I still have the victory , soleild royal , real the france and sovereign of the sea to deal with now they will have proper riging thanks to you !!
As I noticed you use top tier tools for your models, I want to recommend investing in a good cordless screwdriver for drilling and fastening. It makes work so much easier and faster, and I'm sure you will find it very useful for all your workshop projects. I would suggest a Festool T18 with 2,6 ah batteries for lightness and durability but Makita and Dewalt also have some decent products.
Cordless screwdrivers are designed for rough work and therefore they are not suitable for scale models! Where you need precision, it is better to use a professional tool Proxxon or Dremel. And they also have a whole line of cordless rotary tools...
@@OlhaBatchvarovof course. I meant for drilling holes in walls and turning screws for installing 1:1 fixtures in the room.
@@szametha )))))And this part of the work belongs to my husband! I'm just building models, and he's looking for a place for them!
@@OlhaBatchvarov I have a place for one of your models if you need it.
Quelle sorte de fil utiliser vous? et encore bravo quelle perfection dans vos réalisations. je vais essayer de faire mon moi-même les cordages, le coton fourni s effiloche et ça gâche le travail de cordage final

Bonjour, toujours très intéressantes vos vidéos, une question, la machine à fabriquer les cordages, elle vient du commerce ou est-ce un plan personnel ?
Merci!
C'était mon plan selon lequel mon ami l'a construit !
@@OlhaBatchvarov Bonjour et merci pour votre réponse, serait-il possible d'avoir une copie de votre plan ! car j'essaye avec les cordages du commerce mais c'est assez moyen en terme de résultat, tandis qu'avec votre machine, on arrive à faire les mêmes cordages d'origines ! vous me dites...ou alors est-il possible de vous en acheter !
She is such a magicain. her skill holds no bounds.
Thank you very much!
Amazing Olha, well done ❤ your videos I find them very educational and helpful.
Thank you!
every time i see your video you leave me speechless...
Thank you)))
супер. а какие нитки лучше подходят для кручения канатов? где можно купить? и вообще ... если можно поподробнее. очень интересно. спасибо.
Я использую мононить Gutermann она самая тонкая и не рвется даже при навивке каната 0,22 мм. Их еще називают оверлочнЬІми нитками - они без текстурЬІ и поетому можно крутить как вправо так и кабельнЬІе тросЬІ - влево...
This adds a whole new dimension to your search for accuracy and quality.
Well done
Thank you very much!
i am bold over not i see why is one of the best model ship builders in Russia!!!!
Actually, a modeler from Ukraine! Which is better than Russia ;-)
way too cool........even for a man : )
Thx for sharing! That is amazing.
My pleasure!
be careful with your hair when using the drill

Здравствуйте, а тросомот самодельный у вас?) или вы где то покупали?)
Идея на 4 пряди моя, но заказывала у одного умельца который с алюминием работает и платы знает как паять...

wow that is just awesome . i find it relaxing to watch you demonstrate your skills . i now live in germany but its great to see the pictures of home
Thank you very much!
I understand you perfectly!
Superbe.
Оль, які нитки використовуєте?
Gutermann Е121 для оверлоку (мононитки). Вони не скручені ні вліво ні вправо і тому однаково ведуть себе при кабельній і тросовій навивці. І дуже тонкі, що дозволяє робити різні діаметри канатів з кроком 0,05 мм...
@@OlhaBatchvarov саме такі я шукав.. Дякую за підказку)
TOP !!!!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
Impressive 👍
Thanks 👍
Perfekt! 👍 LG, Alfred
Thank you!
Клёвые канатики получаются 👍
Спасибо!
@@OlhaBatchvarov у меня самодельный тросомот, деревянный, правда немного по другому заплетает и только натуральные нити, синтетика расплетается.
Здравствуйте. 121 это цвет нити или это обозначает толщину нити? Так много маркировок, что очень тяжело разобраться. Я видел с маркировкой Е-120(1) - 240 и еще разные есть Помогите разобраться, можете дать точную маркировку, которая указана на упаковке? Например я нашел такие нити - Gütermann E 121 No.160 Thread for 23000 Meters, такие подойдут?
E121 ето тип нити - конкретно ета маркеровка оверлочних ниток, они не скрученьІ (мононить) и из них можно навивать канатьІ и влево(кабельньІй трос для стоячего такелажа)и вправо (бегучий такелаж). No. 240 или No.160 ето диаметр. Я использую Е121 No.240 (бежевого и темно-коричневого цвета) ...
