  1. Hello Marc, thank you, and no I would't rig the model. The ship is now 1,15m long and 40cm high. With a rig it would be 1,40m long and also high. That is much too large. And there are too much sticks and twine for me
  2. Hello, this rail is now ready. It was easier then I first thought. But there are some more left
  3. Hello today we started with the fife rails. First I tuned the arches for the reserve mast storages, then build the rails itself and fitted them in. The rest will come the next days.
  4. Hello, and thank you scrubby and Glenn for your comments, and all the others for your likes. Now the belfry has also a bell.
  5. Hello, the belfry is now at least ready. The next step is turning the bell
  6. Hello, I build the side parts, because drawing them would be nearly impossible. And then came the hardest thing, to assemble the parts. But at least all went well and the shipwright is pleased. Tomorrow the painter has to paint it all.
  7. Hello and thank you for all the likes, after my last post, my cat and I decided to enjoy the now warm sunshine after a more cold spring and being lazy. But yesterday we had here a little, long awaited, rain and I started with the arch of the belfry. The first attempt did't work, so today part two of it I think it worked this time .
  8. Hello, Slowly I get this deck finished. I turned the sheaves for the railing and made the chimney and ventilation for the stove. Even the mast foot is ready. So the next things are the bell and railing.
  9. Hello, thank you Ian and all others for your likes. Now the deck is ready and oiled.
  10. Hello, slowly, but steady the carpenters get the deck ready. First I thought to leave it so, but I think I should build the bows also in front of the open deck.
  11. Hello, the carpenters laid the first planks. I'm away from the shipyard over the next weekend, so I think that the workers made nothing during that time
  12. Hello, a small update, I finished the Bits (?) That was't an easy task, but now its done
  13. Hello, the shipwright has done his homework, but it may take a little time to realise it. There are so many small things to build, before I could assemble them.
  14. Thank you, Druxey and also all others for your likes
  15. Hello, today the carpenters build in the waterways, the planking and the final edge of the deck. The painter is just ready with his job.
  16. Hello, it is done! The interior of the fore castle is ready. But first I had to build the 26 12 pdr ready and some smaller things, like the ashtrays for the ovens and the fire place.
  17. Hello, the carpenters where very busy today and build the walls for the kitchen. So, when I made the pictures, they where at there way home.
  18. Thank you Keith, when I remember right, was wood and coal stored in the fish room. It's in front of last room in the hold.
  19. Hello and many thanks for the nice comments and likes, and some last masonry work around the galley.
  20. Hello, I was't really active at the shipyard the last days, because of the first really spring days with 20°C and sunshine. Now we are back in the reality with 7°C and rain! But slowly the galley get ready. Today the shipwright inspected her and was satisfied. So I think I could glue her fast and start with the kitchen in front of her.
  21. Keith, don't worry, I bought the bricks. That are real clay bricks, but not burned. Jaager, no I would't make it easy Tobias and all others, thank you
  22. Hello, after I have my other yard more or les ready for spring, I'm back at the ship yard. The carpenters have build the basic scaffolding for the galley and I'm do now the masonry work. I think, it's easier doing it 1:1
