I puzzled over this for a long  time as well but for the life of me I can’t remember what the solution was. I am away from home until next week and will get back to you when I have a look at my model and plans. Hopefully David will lend his guidance before that. You are doing a great job so far.

Best,

Ian

Stunning, beautiful work! Thanks for sharing your incredible skills.

Ian

Welcome back Eric. You are doing an outstanding job on the Cheerful. And your photography is second to none. Love it!

Ian

Beautiful job, Doc! I greatly enjoyed watching this progress.

Ian

Beautiful, stunning model and base!

Paul, just a beautiful job. You should be very happy with the result. Can I ask what’s next?

Ian

Honestly Chuck with these endless innovations you are making it is hard for me to continue with my nascent build of the Speedwell. I think I may just have wait until your kits are available. Outstanding work!

Ian

Beautiful work! I enjoyed following your progress. Thanks for sharing.

Ian

Thank you, Bob! Every time I visit my daughter’s place and see the model displayed I think it has to be one of my favourite builds.

Ian

Beautiful work Chuck. So innovative. I’ve started mine but not enough work to report yet. 
Ian

Well I think I know you Todd! 😀 My current project which you made possible is coming to fruition, at least on the mill side. Thanks for the comment.

Great progress and looking good!
Ian

Very, very well done, Bob. Congratulations you should be very proud.

Ian

Absolutely masterful job, Greg and beautiful carvings David! I look forward to building this and hope I can come anywhere close to this. This build log and your books will certainly be a massive help.

Ian 

Thank you kindly tonphil.

Ian

Thanks Bruce, Kevin, Jean-Paul and John. Your comments are greatly appreciated.

And thanks for all the likes!

Ian

Hi Jim, thanks a lot. I am going to tackle David and Greg’s  Speedwell scaled up to 1:32, the same scale as Chuck’s but fully framed. I am hopeful that I can make use of some of Chuck’s add-ons but I’ll have to keep an eye on my build and his to maximize the potential for that option to work. Anyway, the building board today.

Ian

Thanks all for your praise:

Chuck: thanks but I’ll say it again, building your models was no small influence on my ability to get where I did!

Yves: thanks so much.

Greg: thank you kindly. Now I will be held to your and David’s standard again as I start the Speedwell.

VTHokiEE: And I continue to enjoy your Echo build!

Keith: thanks for following my build and all the likes and comments. They really make a difference.

Paul: Many thanks and keep up the superb craftsmanship.

Chris: thanks a lot, much appreciated!

Captain Hook: thanks for saying so!

Mike: thanks!

jpalmer: Thanks again!

Vladimir: thanks and thanks for following along!

David, yes I will have to get a case down the road. 
 

Ian

Ben: thanks indeed!

Good Day, I am calling this build finished. Thanks to everyone’s comments and likes! Special thanks to David of course for envisioning this project and for his help in working through it. Here are my final photos:

Ian

This is beautiful! I assume you used your mill for the lights? I’m interested in your next steps to finalize them (my own attempts frustrated me!).

thanks,

Ian 

Thanks giampieroricci. Keep up your magnificent log!

Ian

Thank you kindly jpalmer. I truly hope to see your build log in the near future and possibly provide some tips as you go. Don’t forget to look at stuntflyer Mike’s log to get started here. 

Ian

Beautiful work Tobias. I’m really enjoying your build.

Thanks Tonphil, it was my labour of love. I’m one step closer.

Hi Alan, thanks a lot. That headboard has come in handy for I don’t know how many projects. It just keeps giving.

Paul thanks, it is but a shadow of your work. Thanks for following.

Hi billocrates, keep at her. It’s nice to hear that I’m not the only one building this beautiful ship and look forward to seeing yours soon.

Thanks Jim, good luck with your Mayflower.

I appreciate it Tobias and I will continue to follow your superb build.

Thank you of course druxey. I have a very specific idea of what’s next but will need your advice before I finalize my plans. You’ll see a pm soon.
