  3. Just came across this video on youtube. Though it would be a good idea to post
  4. I have been following your build with great interest. I am building the Constructo kit of the same boat. The process is a bit different but i am sure the end result will be the same. Your build looks great . Keep it up. Kevin
  5. I have just posted another video on the America build which detail my attempt to make gratings. I would be interested in any feedback. It is included in video 2.
  6. This is the second video on the building of the America. It is my first attempt to build gratings.
  7. Hi Maturin when i first started out in ship modeling i had few local referances so every time i saw a referance book i could get my hand on i would purchase it. I have used the set from time to time but it has not been a great source of referance material on gathering specific data. Not taking anything away from it i had just hoped for more detailed information on the British invation of Trinidad . Perhaps the battle of 1797 was not a major event so was not covered extensively. I now have over 100 books in my collection.
  8. Looking for ways to make deck gratings. This must have been covered somewhere on the forum kevin

  13. I decide to build a sliding table for my Jim Byrnes table saw. I have attached a video on the finial product. Hope you enjoy it.
  14. To celebrate this years Americas Cup i decided to build a model of the original ship. This was a kit i had for many years. When i open the kit i was shocked to find that powder post beatle had attacked the wooden parts. At first i decided to just remake the damaged parts but as the work progressed i decided to make a second scratch built model using the kit to make the scratch built parts. As with my other projects i plan to make a video of this build.
  15. To celebrate the Americas cup i have decided to build a model of the America. I will be posting my video on this build in due course . I am building the Constructo kit and a scratch build version at the same time. I needed a break from the Swan.
  16. I have had a bad month electronically. Following the swimming lessons of my ipad, my imac died a fatal death. So i am in computer rehab trying to come to terms with surfing the net on an iPhone. Not good. Just got my new ipad pro set up and the new camera and built in video flash is great. I also was able to recover the files off the cloud so should be able to start post in in the near future. I actually took a break from modeling, married my last daughter so am ready to get going again.
  17. It was in a water proof camera bag, in a water proof cabin. Unfortunately neither of them turned out to be very water proof. I also lost a DSL camera and my friend lost his laptop. I suppose i was lucky as the boat could have sunk twice and we were 20 miles out to sea when it happened. in terms of back up i do subscribe to iCloud service and some of the footage seems to be there, its just impossible to work on it on the iPhone. When i get the new iPad well see. in the mean time i will just clean up the model as i have a number of small things i can do.
