    Hi Janos and Terry. I am not the best person when it comes to what's inside of my PC I know that the CPU is an i7 and the Graphics card is a Nivida. My son is a computer buff and looks after it for me. (Professional) I am very happy with what I have created so far. One compleat frame in sections at 1 /36 scale of the victory. And the keel and the keelsom. BTW . Janos I love the work you are doing on your CAD on MSW Regards Antony.

    Hi Joe or is it Wacko ? I am following a Utube vid "Canoe hull loft in Solidworks". By Behnt. This looks like the best bet for me. I have the Longridge and the McKay books on the Victory. So it's going to be a long hall. But self satisfaction is the key to enjoyment while learning. I will report any major steps here as I go along. Thanks Antony

    Hi Wacko. Thanks for the pictures. They look brill. I had the software some years ago. A friend went to collage and bought the software and quit collage and engineering design. So I ended up with the software How did you get the curves for the frames ? Inport a scan or draw freehand ? Regards Antony.

    Hi. I am just getting into CAD modeling and I have Solidworks ver 2005. I am learning the very basics at the moment. Not easy at when your over 60. The purpose of learning this is I want to do a very detailed cross section of the Victory. My question is... Is there anyone else out there using Solidworks ?? I have found a few very good Utube starter videos. Any advice apart from telling me to change software is welcome (as I already own Solidworks the cost will kill the project). Many thanks Antony.

    Hi Richard. You have made a good start. And yes it's always a good idea to test things with some scrap first.. Regards Antony.

    Hello Karl. I have just finished reading through the entire log. It has taken me some 3.5 hours and at every photo I am amazed at the skills and quality of this build. You always add that little bit more detail and enhance the already perfect build. Please keep the photos and build posted as I am following this build. Regards Antony.
