cleats
ross replied to ross's topic in Discussion for a Ship's Deck Furniture, Guns, boats and other Fittings
Cheers John, i think that type would be more in the period i am looking for,and far better than the kit parts, i think i will have a look and see what Cornwall model boats have. many thanks again. Ross -
cleats

Iam just starting on the deck furniture ect on the 1/50 bounty by constructo, and not very happy with the kit supplied cleats,these are wood ones 10mm long, the instructions say to just round off the edges and fit as to plan,but to me they do not look very good,so my question is, what sort and shape do i fit ,what sort would be authentic fo that period, thanks in advance,Ross. -
This review of the Mayflower is realy good,the differance of the plans and instrutions to those of the Bounty are like chalk and cheese, (very good instructions and plans with the Bounty) i think the lack of these with the Mayflower will put me off purchasing the constructo kit,will have to enquire shipping costs to uk for the MS kit. Thanks again for the review,hope many more find it as useful as i have Cheers Ross.

Hi Yves, this review of the mayflower is to me realy interesting,as and when i have completed the Constructo Bounty,this will be my next build, I have also been wondering about wich make of model ect, Looking forward to your next update,Thank you,Ross.

Hi slog, hoping to post my log shortely( waiting for new camera), your build is progressing very nicely, that jig you made is a excelent idea,going to do one myself, keep up the good work.
-
i have one, waste of space, find it far better to use push pins pushed under the plank,rather than putting pins into the plank.
-
this ones on my list,after i have finished the bounty,your build is looking excelent. keep up the good work,just a shame you cant start the log from the begining.
