My wallet is already quivering with anticipation. I can hardly wait for the Sphinx to come out, it's going to be one hell of a beautiful kit.

The work on the ship continues with belaying pin rack... simply to assembly, the rack will be secured with two pins.. Today i will try danish oil as an finish, after a coat of nature stain and golden oak stain was applied..
And the windlass is next... All parts for windlass are in one small plastic bag, very convenient and safe since they are very fragile.. lots of staining, cutting, sanding, fitting... This is different approach in building a windlass when i compare it with my Sultana build, which was all almost from scratch..
For dark wood i used dark oak stain, wanted to see if i can get a contrast between "moving" windlass parts and stationary parts..
All parts are easy to remove and required just a bit of sanding, very much like plastic plane models from well known manufacturers..
The toothpick is here to keep all parts together..
Happy modelling...

If you are going to brush on glue now I suggest not putting glue in the places where parts 21, 22, 23 and 24 go. It makes it more difficult to fit them if there is glue in the way.

Looks like they have an "F" on the BBB site.

First batch of orders were picked up today, wait, no, yesterday, Monday, so most should receive today (Tuesday), with other countries not too far behind.
Am very much hoping that with this kit, no one will have any issue whatsoever with hull assembly and fragility - I designed it so it's as strong as a Tonka Toy. So if you break it, then there's no helping you, really....lol

Got my email today and it does say it will be delivered today. I'm guessing it will actually be here on Thursday, which is pretty fast shipping.
