More Parts of the Revenge for OFMD Fans
Part of a series: Revenge Master Post.
This post is about stuff in the body of the ship, going more or less from top to bottom. I’m saving the sails and rigging for my next post. If you want to know more basic terms like fore and aft and bow and stern, look for “Parts of the Revenge” in my master post.
Obviously, using these terms is entirely optional, since David Jenkins et al. are free and easy with the ol' historical accuracy. This list is for pedants like me and people who like historical and specialized language. Enjoy!
Main Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The low “walls” on the sides of the open decks were called the bulwarks—they were to keep people from falling overboard. On the Revenge, the bulwarks are topped by a rail (railing).
A gap in the bulwark, together with a set of rungs on the hull, was called an entry port. It allowed people to climb aboard from a dinghy.
The top edge of the bulwark was the gunwale, pronounced gunnel. The expression “loaded to the gunwales” is still used to mean very full. The top edges of a dinghy are also called gunwales.
Tumblr media
An opening in the deck is called a hatchway. I wrote about hatches a while ago, but what I didn’t realize was that the hatch is the part that covers the hatchway. The wooden grid that lets light and air through is called the grating.
In the bow, the curving rail that goes from the figurehead to the hull is called the head rail, which would’ve been really helpful to know for my toilet post. Oh well.
Tumblr media
Stede’s journal could at a stretch be called a logbook (or log). This was a book in which an officer noted details of the ship’s daily progress and journey. Probably a bit less fanciful than Stede’s version.
Weaponry
The Revenge has guns (the word used for cannons) on her main deck and her gun deck. Before a gun was fired, the barrel was cleared with the sponge, then loaded with gunpowder and shot and wads of cloth, all of which was tamped down with the rammer. There were different types of shot, or ammunition; cannonballs were called round shot.
Tumblr media
To fire a gun, a lit fuse (usually a slow match) was brought in contact with the vent at the top of the gun—called the touchhole—to ignite the gunpowder. (The wick added in OFMD isn’t accurate. Shocking, I know.) The slow match was usually held with a staff called a linstock, tucked into a notch on the end. You didn’t want to be right next to the cannon when it went off, because there was a non-zero chance it would misfire and explode in your face.
Despite what you see in movies, cannons didn’t produce a lot of fire and smoke; the cannonball did damage by going unstoppably through hulls, masts, and people—often many at a time—like a deadly Energizer bunny.
The gunpowder was kept in kegs in a small room called the powder magazine. (A magazine is an ammunition storage area.) This room was in the hull of the ship, below the water line, to minimize the chances of a stray spark sending the whole ship up in flames. The shot was kept in the shot-locker, a small room in the hold (though this word wasn’t recorded till 1805). As we know, Stede calls this the ball room.
Tumblr media
Besides the regular cannons, the Revenge also has swivel guns, small cannons mounted on swivels. These were too small to damage another ship; they were there to fire at boarders and approaching boats. Or, you know, to set off fireworks.
To take an enemy ship, sailors might use a grapnel (or grappling hook). These were attached to a rope and thrown at enemy bulwarks or rigging so the ships could be pulled together for boarding.
The Gun Deck
Everything on a ship had to have a special name: stairs were always called ladders; the floor was called the deck; and a wall or partition inside the hull was called a bulkhead.
Tumblr media
Some of you may know that a ship’s kitchen is called a galley. However, this usage wasn’t recorded until 1750; the earlier word was cook-room.
Likewise, the mess is where you eat on a ship, but this sense wasn’t recorded until the late 1800s. In OFMD’s time, mess meant “a group of people who eat together,” like officers of the same rank or sailors on the same watch.
Tumblr media
You might know a berth as a shelf or box to sleep on, like Stede’s (and Ed’s) bed, but this usage wasn’t recorded until the 1790s. The earlier meaning, used from at least 1706, is “a room where a particular group (such as officers or midshipmen) eats and sleeps.” So you might call Jim’s room a berth—except that it changes hands, and its name has been firmly established as the Room.
A berth is also a place in a port or harbour where you can moor (park) a vessel, and thirdly, the safety margin around another vessel or object, which gives us the phrase “to give [it] a wide berth.”
Finally, the area where the animals (remember them?) were kept was a small triangular area in the bow called the manger. This seems to be where the Revenge’s en suite is, at least as far as I can figure, but if you want to include the animals for whatever reason, they’d probably live somewhere around there.
Storage
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of the stuff on board was stored in casks, a.k.a. barrels. These could be any size, but a large cask was also called a butt. A scuttlebutt was a butt full of water attached to the deck for sailors to drink from. Unfortunately, the word wasn’t recorded before 1800, and the “gossip” meaning not till a century after that. But it’s a great word and you should use it anyway.
A keg was a small cask, usually less than ten gallons, used for things like gunpowder or rum.
A sea chest was a wooden box used to store an officer’s personal effects—or to confine a nosy hombrecito.
The Ship’s Bottom
(As it were.)
In several of my posts and diagrams I said the lower decks of the Revenge were the gun deck, the orlop, and the hold. But my friends, I made a grievous error: the Revenge has no orlop. I know!
In season 2, for the first time we get to see what’s below the gun deck. When Frenchie opens the secret passage in the kitchen, he reveals a set of stairs—sorry, a ladder—down to a grim, damp space. The kitchen is on the gun deck, so this is the deck immediately below it, and while on most ships that would’ve been the orlop, in this case it’s the hold.
Tumblr media
The hold was the lowest compartment of the ship, used for storage and cargo. It also sometimes held the ballast—heavy stuff (e.g., pig iron, gravel, stones, lead) put there to improve the ship’s balance. The lowest part of the hold itself was called the bilge or bilges—the area where bilgewater collected and had to be pumped out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Episode 3 shows the water on the floor—sorry, deck—making it pretty clear we’re in the bilges of the hold. On top of that, an Instagram post by crewmember Will Giles (shared on Tumblr by @ourflagmeansbts) mentioned repurposing the “bilge set.”
Which all proves that the Revenge’s hold is immediately below the gun deck, with no orlop in between.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The keel is the structural piece that runs lengthwise along the middle of the hull’s bottom. Keel-hauling was to drag someone along the outside of the keel, underwater, as a punishment—very nasty, often fatal.
Also underwater, at the stern, is the rudder, whose movement makes the ship turn. On a dinghy you steer by moving the tiller, a horizontal bar attached to the rudder post. On a ship like the Revenge, you turn the ship’s wheel, which is attached to the tiller via cables, and that moves the rudder.
That’s all for now! Coming next: sails and rigging, in port, and more sailing lingo.

What is a Compactor and How it is Used in Construction
Tumblr media
What is a Compactor in Construction Equipment? One of the most important components of any construction is compaction. Significant erosion, slab fractures, and pipe leaks can all occur without adequate soil compaction. This causes structural breakdowns and needless maintenance expenditures. Plate compactors and roller compactors are two examples of various compactor machinery with distinct uses. Its main purpose is to make the foundations of practically all projects stronger.
Equipment for Light Soil Compactors It works well in small places when less force is needed for packing. Typically, they are operated by hand.
Equipment for Vibrating Plate Compactor The vibrating plate compactor may be used in tight locations where it is difficult to operate heavy equipment. This is because in addition to the weight of the machine, it features a vibrating base plate that generates a downward force.
The soil density rises as a result of the vibrations’ ability to move the particles closer together in the soil.
Tumblr media
Jack Jumping/Rammers The earth’s surface is struck repeatedly by this instrument. It functions similarly to a jackhammer, except instead of having a sharp point, it seems to have a flat surface. Trenches are frequently made with rammers.
Roller for Heavy Soil Compactor Equipment It is absurd to compare this type of construction machinery to Wile E. Coyote. These enormous roller-like devices knead and press the dirt together to bind it. They are utilized in huge, open spaces. slick roller (Static)
The most typical kind of compactor is additionally known as a road roller. They work well for leveling asphalt roads but are also appropriate for good sand and gravel. The apparatus is in front of a steel drum. They depended on the drums’ weight, which pounded the earth. Typically, eight crossings are enough to compact a 20 cm layer of soil.
slick roller (Vibrating) The vibrating roller employs vibrating force to have a more significant effect rather of depending solely on static force (drum weight). The mass that repeats or rotates causes the drums to vibrate.
Increased vibration force results in more effective work and more compaction. Additionally, you may compress dirt down further.
Animal Foot Roller The presence of protruding lugs or a foot on a steel drum distinguishes sheepsfoot rollers from smooth rollers. These lugs are hexagonally arranged and have a rectangular form. Additionally, there are static and vibrating variants of this equipment available.
They can compress strong bottoms and are also called as tamping rollers. For subgrade layer compaction on road and railroad constructions, sheep’s rollers are appropriate.

Rammed earth, a building technique that dates back to ancient times, is enjoying a modern-day renaissance due to its affordability and sustainability.
Rammed earth is a building technology that is as old as civilization. It involves mixing soil, sand, and aggregate with water to form a solid mass. The mix is poured into forms and then pressed or tamped with a tamper or rammer to achieve the desired compactness. This method of construction has been used in regions around the world, such as in ancient Egypt, Greece, and China.
Although this ancient technique is not commonly used in the Western world anymore, it is beginning to make a comeback due to its affordability and sustainability. Because it is made of soil, which is abundant in nature, it does not require the use of expensive materials or energy to produce. It is also more sustainable than other traditional materials such as bricks and cement, which often have a large environmental cost to produce.
Probably one of the biggest advantages of rammed earth is its durability. This type of building material is incredibly strong and resistant to ultra-violet radiation. Additionally, this building material also provides good insulation, which can save energy and reduce heating and cooling costs.
For these reasons, rammed earth construction is becoming increasingly popular for homes and buildings in many parts of the world. Moreover, rammed earth could even be used to build city walls, a practice that was possibly invented in ancient China and used for centuries.
In short, rammed earth’s affordability, durability, and sustainability are the main reasons why it is alluring to modern-day architects and engineers. The ancient technique is becoming increasingly embraced, and it is likely to remain an attractive option for building for a long time to come.
