  1. I would think that part of the grating would have to be removed if you want to use the kit supplied rope which is what I would think they did back in the day. Mort
  2. Hi David, Can you post a pix of the part of the tool that holds the wood in place? I want to make one for my own Victory build. Thanks, Mort
  3. Hi Anthony, Just discovered your build. I will follow very closely. I have the kit and hope to build her one day. Where did you find and how can I get a copy of that article on the quarter galleries? I know I will need it when I work on my Connie. Thanks, Mort
  4. Hi Jaison, Fast question, did you use the wheel supplied with the kit? Your wheel looks a lot better than the kits. Thanks, Mort
  5. Hi Ray, Great idea the way you handled the transom it was ingenious. I was curious to see your solution to that issue. I would think you will not have a problem with it. Sorry about the knee problems. Hope the new pain medication works. Keep up the great work my friend, Mort
  6. Lids look good. Keep up the great work. You are doing a very fine job. Mort Mort
  7. Is it possible that Caldercraft does not have the funds necessary to release either or both of these kits? Mort
  8. Hi Dan, I forgot to add that having seen some of your work up close I hope that this will be the first of many more build logs. Mort
  9. Hi Dan, Welcome to the family. I am really looking forward to this build and your building techniques. She looks great so far. Mort
  10. You are doing a great job. As Blue Ensign has said it is never to early. My 3 year old grandson helped me paint the intreior bulworks red and is looking forward to helping Poppy paint the hull occhre and black. I am hoping he has enough coordination to help me with the deck planking. Mort
  11. She is still quite a lady. God bless her and the souls of all who sailed with her. Mort
  12. No my friend. I thank you and everyone else for taking the time to share their builds of this amazing and challenging kit. Mort
  13. Those photos are wonderful. The ship looks great. You should be very proud. I know I would be. Mort
  14. Thanks for the picture. I thought adout adding them to my Snake but after viewing those pictures I guess not. They really are small. Mort
  15. I used the late Harold Hunts plans. I reduced the head rail drawings to the size of my model - about 74 o/o - and glued the reduced drawings to a piece of boxwood and simply cut them out with my scroll saw. I finished whatever shaping was necessary with mini files. Hope this helps, Mort
  16. Hi Mobbsie, Can you post a close up of the flintlocks? Thanks, Mort
  17. Hi Ray, can you post a picture of your deck at the stem? Thanks, Mort
