SawdustDave got a reaction from kutlay in Mayflower by SawdustDave - Finished
At this point, still working on launching a new build log for my Mayflower. Just figured out that the old Ship Modeler's Forum is still up and running. Until now, I thought it was the old same group with a new system.....confused here.
So the question is.....Are the members the same?..... or Is this an entirely different organization?

She now has her masts....although they are merely sitting loosely in place at this point.

Several milestones in every build are worthy of small celebrations. The final hull plank is one of those "Miller Time" moments.

Not exactly sure how to reply since I am actually using two sets of plans. Began with plan sheets provided by our friend Mr. Passaro....also using a set of plan sheets provided by my friend Ilhan Gokcay. Mr. Gokcay's build log, posted herein, has been my primary resource for detail. He tells me in an email that he used Anderson's book as a reference for rigging detail.
Note: I cannot claim to be a maritime historian, although I do appreciate those of you who are. I'm just an old woodworker who kinda fell into this amazing hobby a few years ago and fell in love with the art.

Tops....
Over 100 pieces per top....These are, by far, the most difficult tops I've ever tried to build.

Adding railing stanchions. Getting each the exact same height being the promary challenge here.
