You did a great job with the coppering!

addicrion to ship kits will move in to tools.... you just want to buy them.

 

for what you use the milling machine? I know its possible to do it with drill bench and cordinate table also.

Not sure for what I will be using the milling machine  , but want one!   A large deal of my working life I worked with lathes and milling machines, so it's kinda cool to have these in mini at home  Also maybe the next build will be scratch, so then I certainly can use one. But the lathe is priority, because of al the masting etc. And yes you can use also a drill bench with a coordinates table, but I don't have a good drill bench for that, so better to buy a milling machine that I also can use for drilling

Great toys! That disc sander is the best tool I own...just want a lathe and a milling machine. But also need to create more space the put them somewhere...and money, and, and  

The capstan looks very good and clean! Are you satisfied with the mini-lathe? Thinking about buying one myself.

Really nice planking! Also that yellow tone of it is so beautiful!

The bowfillers already look beautiful!  

First planking looks really good!  

Magnificient!  

Really nice design again! You are doing very well with so much designs in such a short time  

I just found this buildlog...just stunning work! What a joy to watch!  

Everything looks really nice and neat! And yes...the disc sander is one of the best tools you can get!!   

I had that glueing issue...that it dry's so fast already with the Pegasus, so I used also a wood glue that takes longer to dry. I can imagine with this model, you want indeed a slow drying glue. A lot of bulkheads in this design again, looks really good!

Fascinating stuff! Really excited to watch this come together!

Thanks, Mugje sounds like you are a Dutchman? 

Yes I am! I live in Friesland

Great idea and progress with your build. It's nice to pick a bigger scale with these vessels. You can get a lot of details in this way 👍

Welkom Tom  

Well done! The model turned out great!!  

Wonderful progress so far! Your build looks excellent  

Your last build...the AVS turned out great! So it will be fun to watch you tackle this one!  

If the coppering gets older with a nice patina, the effect is really nice I can assure you! But also a matter of taste offcourse  

Great review, and what an extensive kit!

Thanks for the tip Gregory! I now scribed a line in the wood with a small knife and filled that up with a dark wood filler, and sanded afterwards the excess filler. That seemed to work also quite ok.

Wow you did a really nice job so far! Nice clean and detailed work! Going to follow this log
