  5. Hi Denis Thank you for your input, yes it is really delicious with all the chain, I myself absolutely love it. However, I have a problem I have approx. 5 m chain I probably need at least 8 m, but of course it can be obtained. Cheers Jens
  6. Hi Vladimir Thank you for your nice words. Yes, we are gradually some people building on a cutty sark. I've seen your build log - and it's an impressive project you're on. and your richness in detail make you honor. i'm a little curious about where you should have it on display ? Is it for an exhibition of some sort. ? it will certainly attract attention wherever it stands. Cheers Jens
  7. Hi Guy thank you for your nice words - it is fun to hear you have been in vordingborg, the last 2 years i have visited the city in week 28 where there is a "party week" with music performance and food - and ofcours Beer. unfortanly it has been canceled this year due to corona Cheers Jens.

  9. Hello everyone here is a small update that has required a lot of patience and 2½ meter anchor chain 1½mm thickness. There are a few stays and backstays missing before I move on to the main mast but it vill com . Cheers Jens.
  10. hey i have a copy - but with sails and drawstrings it is not to take good enlightening pictures - with less you know what details you want to see. but you have the mast and yards drawings with the reference number right? as i remember it is the leash lead afterwards that is totally fuckt in AL. guidance. there I had to use the help of Billing boat drawings and found on the web drawings for Rewal plastic model which were really the best to understand I would like to take a few pictures of details if you clearly tell me what to see. Cheers Jens

  15. Hello everyone yes it is one of these competitions for children - two pictures - almost the same but you can find at least 5 things that are not the same. I can reveal here the top picture is 2015 and the second 2020. Cheers All Jens.
  16. Hi Hof thank you for commenting - I appreciate it I have now started on the rat lines. I have further modified my clamp by making a leash brake - the first knot has always caused me torment, but now it goes like a breeze. Cheers Jens.
