  1. B.E. (and Kurt) you are just so darn inventive. I wish I was behind you guys so I could benefit from your ideas but I’m well into hull planking now. The only small suggestion I can make is that when it comes to thinning the stern flank pieces, think about using a jewelry saw instead of a dremel drum to get very close to where you need to be. I just didn’t trust myself to hit the adjacent stern frames. Worked perfectly and reduced the sawdust and noise fury. Ian
  2. Looking good Michael. You got those patterns to fit very well. best regards, Ian
  3. Hi Don, Congratulations on completing the massive job of planking your Stefano. Beautiful job! The wood looks very good with a coat of poly on it. Regards, Ian
  4. Beautiful work Eugene. What kinds of wood did you use and when will it be available? Best Regards, Ian
  5. Welcome to the forum Larry. You will find lots of support here. I see you built the Cape Cod Catboat. I completed that one last year although I'm going to re-rig it next year sometime. Regards, Ian
  6. I’m pulling up a chair if you don’t mind Mike. Love your work and this frigate is on my list once I finish the Cheerful and some other kits. Has Chuck made the book and other parts for it available yet? Best regards, Ian
  7. Fabulous job Don! She's a beauty to behold. Thanks again for the tutelage on my own project which benefitted tremendously from your build and wisdom. Lest we forget...the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month Ian
  8. Happy Birthday Don! Have a good one.

  11. Just catching up - beautiful work Julian. I love the finish. Regards, Ian
  12. Lovely work and result David! regards, Ian
  13. Don, those sails look great! I will make a suggestion without knowing whether it will work but perhaps you could experiment with. My daughter passed on a trick she uses while travelling. Mix one quarter fabric softener with three quarters water and spray the material. Let dry and maybe...just maybe...the wrinkles will leave. I’ve never tried it but my daughter swears it works. ian
