I think I would go for the least impact solution.

Leave as it is and I would smuggle with iron of the hinges just as if it were how it should be.

I've noticed another mistake (I keep doing this)

Means you are still human

Wauw, just realise its been 2 months since an update. Now I also have been busy building other projects and some holidays. But some progress was made, so here he goes.

I finished the deck planking and did some roping as later on I would not reach the knights head anymore.

During the clamping of the inner planking a clamp spri=ung off. I was uncarefull in placing it so I had to repair the parts carefully. I used sanded dust and diluted glue as I did not want to replace the parts. I was quite succefull i think.

Then I also decided to add the kitchen chimney. A wooden block was made to shape. Then 0.4 copper was used to build it and a edge of 1mm copper to complete the image.

Jim, she used and older email and it came through. Very strange why the h.oosterwaal@... does not work from your end, it does work for this forum's notifications??

Anyway, I was stupid and had my sliding table fell to the floor. Its bent now. Tried to remedy but alass. So decided to purchase a new one and use parts of the old one for some of my jigs.

Sorry for all the trouble and thanks.

Hans.

Jim, checked this morning, alass no mail. I think maybe Donna might be using an older email from me?

I just send here another email at mmllc@cfl.rr.com

Thanks Hans.

Thanks Jim, did not received it also not in spam.

Will look out for it.

Hans.

Hi Jim, As follows:

"Thanks for your on-line order #200730MM24768001 at ByrnesModelMachines.com!"

Regards and thanks Hans.

ps also send an email to Donna after the order as for details/instructions on shipping.

Hi Jim, any luck of getting some time to look at my order?

Hi Jim, hows the work going?

I put an order in week and half ago. Any indication as when it could be shipped?

Thanks for having Donna take a look. Just so I know whats the wait.

Thanks Hans.

Andre, I am building the 7 provincien and have (had) the same problems with the angle of the platforms (de mars).

A lot of models show them quite angled whereas sometimes you see them horizontally.

Angled is said te be for the fact that (mostly sweet rain) water will run down and away.

But I also mounted them horizontally, which seems more logical and fitting to me. water will run away anyway with the platforms being rather open en the ship probably always rocking due to waves.

further a very nice build. Rgds Hans

Nearly another month, time for an update.

As I was working on the bowsprit I decided to finish all mast and all parts of the masts.

Highest point reached!! Time for a beer

Experimenting with rope, as it is nearing time to fix some rope. As I cannot reach that anymore after closing the deck.

To do that it would be a whole new machine.  Aren't there a few good 10' diameter sanders on the market

 

Jim.  

Jim, What about a special consignment job to build me one?

Not being able to build and ship 120V motor units could maybe leave you some spare hours :)?

RGDS Hans.

Who again said: “Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.”?

OK clear, thanks Jim.

There are some on the market, but not as good as yours.

I currently have the proxxon. its ok but as their table saw compares against your table saw, just a step down on the ladder.

Rgds Hans

Jim as you provide a larger table top for the table saw is there a likewise option for the disc sander?

I would be very much interested in a 250mm disc sized discsander

Rgds Hans

As the new moth approaches time for another update.

The first part of the deck, all between the strakes, had been finished, still dry fit. And I will keep it dry fit for some time as to keep acces to the orlop.

I did some parts on the main deck, like the kolderstok.

Also the Rusts for the putting irons were made

And next was the bowmast. I still needed to make the bottom fitting square and making a holder for it.

During this I found the mast not properly alinged and thatw as adjusted.

Final and correct aligment now.

Creating some other parts on the deck.

Indeed it is coming nicely together Marcus!

By the way, hobbying outside in the sun is a joy

David, sorry for asking but shouldn't the stairs and pillars stand on the deck? They seem somewhat elevated now.

Very nice build 👍I will hop on for the rest of the ride.

Sorry no, I only build scratch.

I just wanted to clear misunderstanding. shipping vice versa, UK and mainland is still as before, just EU rules.

interested. but sadly UK is not EU anymore... where from and how much?

 

In terms of taxes and import nothing has changed yet. Only by end of this year and only then if no agreement is reached on forehand.

As far as I am aware that is.

Indeed she did Jim, just came in my time 19.52, crossed in between my 2 posts here. Thanks anyway. Will follow up with her, thanks!

Thanks Jim,

order #200419MM38900158

And I asked by mail (remove by moderator) to add 1 extra adapter and to add 2 miter bars for the saw miter slots.

Thanks for looking into it.

Hans

Hans, 

In post 152, last picture, the clamps. Self made? Here you can purchase them in 6" (15cm) and up. I have not found anything that small. 

Marcus 

No Marcus not selfmade.

Bessey.

Amongst here you can find them. https://www.superhandgereedschap.nl/product/parallelspanner-mt-1-36mm-bessey/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-r71BRDuARIsAB7i_QNHe24SCgjOSfzT7rpOcK4HFeeTyKBU-YfHtKlM9ucSh0GK8fC2z8kaAubrEALw_wcB

They will for sure be cheaper in US.
