As ive said before Denis, your admiral is worth her weight in gold. We in sunny Australia don't have your problem, so we don't know how much if a pain in the backside it is. Keep on trying mate. havagooday if you can Greg

G'day Danny I've got a question, maybe to you it's a dumb one. You mentioned that the mask step isn't bolted to the keel, but wedges are use to move the mast fore and aft. Is it only on the main mask or all of them? Also is this practice used on all English ships, no matter what type etc? As I've said before, your pictorial log teachers us, or me a hell of a lot! Your workmanship is outstanding. Havagooday mate and happyozzieday Greg

G'day Mark I was told by a friend of mine years ago, when he was building his ultralight aircraft. "90% of the job took 10% of the time, while 10% of the build took 90% of the time. Well if you are like me,10% of time was used to build the model, while 90% of the time is being spent on the rebuild! I'm looking very seriously, in at the idea of buying a small laser cutter my self. So there might be more rebuild on the way if I get one. Havagooday mate and stay safe in the weather. Greg

G'day Denis Looking very interesting. To answer John's question: why don't you put lots and lots of candy on the outside with a big oven inside. You then can call the boat "the Hancel and Cretel". Just an idea mate Havagooday Greg

G'day Dave There's one thing that I can say "very impressive"! Love your attention to details. On a different matter, how's the sawdust piling up. Can we call you SawdustDave again? Lol If you are like me, even with a dust extractor, the sawdust can still pile up. My admiral always telling me that I'm a messy bugger! Well Havagooday Greg

G'day Toni I'm feel sick looking at your marvelous skills! Not only you are great at the wood side, you are great at the metal side. Havagooday Greg

G'day Patrick George "hit the nail on the head" when he mentioned about the scale of the model compare to your hand! I thought the same thing and the previous photos are more amazzzzzzzzing when you think how small it really is. Btw, did I see a shower head in one of the bathrooms, it was too out of focus to see exactly. Again my mate, WELL DONE. Havagoodweekend Greg

G'day Dave She's going on "great guns mate! " There's always things that can be done and it normally doesn't matter which order that you do it. It's up to you and a toss of a coin, I guess. Havagooday Greg

Not beautiful but they are partially correct. It's bloody beautiful and I love the horses. Havagooday Greg -
G'day Denis I think that you are on the right track about the stain glass windows. Regarding flat or peak! Flat would be easier, but peak would look better and it will help to hide the flickering lights. Besides when do you ever take the easy path? NEVER! Havagooday mate and I'm so sorry to hear about Augie's passing. Your post in SHORE LEAVE about him it the spot. Greg

G'day Robert Amazzzzzzzzing stunning work. My word vocalisations isn't good enough to truly express my my amazement. Just courrious, what amount of hour that was envolved in the main mask Platform?

G'day Keith Great job to say the least! I'm glad that you have decided to make the columns, it will look much better. I'm sorry mate if I was a pain in the rectum with all of my messages lol.

G'day Danny You aren't slack mate, I am! It's been a quite a time since I've looked at your post and I'm so sorry about that. Well mate, like you usual standards in construction and your great log-a-lesson, I'm not disappointed when I have looked over your updates. She's a beauty and your eye for details are there to teach us the "mortals". Havagooday Greg
