Or is the name of the file just a red herring ....

Jan

You should rename your file before uploadingh,

otherwise it's too simple

Jan

This game is rapidly changing into 'find were the name is'-game  

And as you have only one 'non-laker' you decide to concede.

We understand .....

Jan

I also used Bob's method.

I found it useful to mark the centre of the dowel with a small pinhole before starting the tapering.

That helped to keep the whole thing more or less centered.

Jan

Yep, you've seen her before.

Thereofre, I should not accept Noordzee as an answer

However, as Rode zee (which is the one in the picture) and Noordzee are completely identical (although guys who actually have sailed on her tell that there are differences between the sisters), feel free to present us a great laker

Jan

it is

Jan

Great! (and large with the masts on...)

Jan

Ah, that's long ago I have posten one.
Here it comes (dont tell Andy/realworkingsailor, he will not like this one )

First I thought mediterranean, but then I realized: it looks like a Dutch or German 'kotter'.

going through a list of sail Amsterdam and Sail de Ruyter, I came across her name: Thalassa

Jan

I have way to go.....

I used to be a rear admiral

Jan

Hey, this previous good for nothing post seems to be my 100.

I earned my first stripe!

btw: Sjors: where did you find this invisible fairy writing your name?

Jan

Popeye needs some spinach I think.....

He's loosing the connection to the real world

Jan

Something, no matter what, even a pic of popcorn will do

Jan

A rat-trap? to catch popcorn??

Oh.... I understand...

but Sjors is too large for that

Jan

I think Slagoon actually mentioned her?

Jan

Oh isn't there a brass ring then?...

Bowl of popcorn, then, perhaps?

Jan

Lobsters…..Rats….Ground Hogs…….where is this going to?

 

Sjors

the ZOO, obviously!

What nonsense: keeping Andy from tying knots.

You guys'll do anything to get your previous post-ranks back!

Jan

Was Arabia a hospital ship (at least, that's what I think the troop-connection in WWI is)?

Jan

........

I presume that that large chunk of wood at the right hand side of the pucture is a tree-nail in real life?

How are you going to paint this fantastic little crown? A one-haired brush will be way too thick

Jan

Your text-log is gone,

but your pics are as good as the accompanying text!

Thanks for reposting!

Jan

3 years?

As Arjan syis: mine is in and out the workshiop for 13 years bij now.

Actually, he is more bothered by a record than I am: building is something I do for fun, and as soon as fun (and/or available time) is gone, I just leave it were it stands.

Can we see a pic of your PW?

Jan

When i get back from the work ill do it again...

You mean: posting including the name?

From own experience I can tell: sometimes names are hidden in the clouds, in the waves, in the filename, of just plainly written on the sides of the ship....

Jan

Thanks for anmswering.

Yes, I know the pictures by Van Yk.

I was wondering whether or not you found anything written on the dimensions and scale of the lines and circles in these pictures.

But apparently: no rules given by Van Yk.

Jan

Thinking aloud: Not French, becasue the bow doesn't fit. 

Not HMS, as I can not find anything like it.

Could be spanish (used in the spanish/mexican war....)

Jan

Probably a protected cruiser, this one....

But still no clue which one
