Hi John .

Cheers
Jens.

Hello John thank you for the nice words about my model .I am very surprised and honored to be compared to one of the great filmmakers, but I can see what you mean by being cast in another time and place - it is a big part of building model. that with the power - there I must disappoint you - the power supply is cable connected, but with very thin wires, which is not seen in the picture unfortunately i have no battery now - it is made for 12 wolt when i used dasbord bulb in the beginning. later i found out i could use led light .
the current goes via cables ( 0,3 mm virer )to the cradle where the plus and minus are at each end and attached to a small screw when the model is right in the cradle the
screws touch two metal plates in the bottom of the keel.
I hope this detection does not disappoint you - even though I thought it was brilliant to be able to use vieres for cable - the navigation light is powered by the support for bulvork where the plus and minus are twisted together as a support and painted white
Well but I hope this is understandable what I write - it is with the help of google translate and therefore it can be a bit strange - I hope it worksCheers .JensÅbn i Google Oversæt Webresultater

Hi Denis 🙂
I'm glad to hear from you again. yes I think you have long since finished the fishing cutter "Norden". so what are you building on now? I am still preparing to raise the mast but there are many shortcomings I have skipped earlier which must now be done before it is to raise the mast - otherwise it will be inaccessible to reach. Here is the main mast stays attachment on the deck, which I made this morning - I have run into a little dry time so I am now on the computer.
I had to remove the bench to get to
the brackets consist of a brass nail, one piece 2 x 2 mm plate from my brass platter and then some cut-off from some billing bots fiting.
It all happens here at the rowing shop
one piece soldet
here with 1 mm brass wire bent to rings
and then just wait until they are dry 😁
Cherrs All.

even if they don't come on yet, I just have to do a test. and, as feared, the space is very tight - but it might just be there

smukt arbejde - meget autentisk

Hi a little updating. a lot of work goes into preparation to finally raise the masters but I thought myself I have come a long way with the form mast. - why a yard is placed is because it is a whole ring that connects it to the mast and therefore must be on before being closed over it
Well.
still a lot of work to do then back to the workbench
Cheers All.

then we are two who build without a professional background, but if you stick to the drawings and many photos of the details then we can probably com thrug this vith stile .

Hi Denis
the weather here in denmark is the past most for indoor pursuits so it helps a little at the work on cutty sark.
cheers.

Hello Jens. Really nice work on your masts and yards. I especially like all the fittings you made. Where did you learn to make such detailed fittings?
PeterHi Peter
Thanks for your nice words.
I took part in a 14 day jewelery course which was very instructive in terms of learning to sand cast and to solder etc. and the best part was that I was one man among 12 sweet ladies on that course

Hello everyone . I have spent many hours on this mast project. and have now reached where I want to mount the yards and make the top mast ladders and so on ,but still only one at a time -the picture with all the masts is just to boast
I look forward to the great work being done now that the masters "get together"
Cheers All.

I have also omitted this detail for the same reason - a skilled shipmaker does everything to avoid seeing these wood plugs in the deck so that they hardly are seen in real size so it seems extra grotesque to highlight them in scale 1:84
Of course it is only my opinion.Jens.

beautiful work I look forward to new great updates
-
thank gentlemen
It has also been a great pleasure to rebuild the well-built model, I could immediately see that it was something special and that only little fittings should be added, and of course new sails, I could have done more at the mast, but with respect for the "model builder" I keep what is because it all seems quite good, and then I can just build my own junior boat from scratch and see if I can do it all better - that could be a challenge.
Thank you all for looking in and leaving a commentary

I consider the project to be completed. I have a couple before and after pictures. What I most like to emphasize is that I have changed keel and rudder to a more real desine and then to change steel wire to really braided wire. that can be tightened up. And then of course new sails - probably the most significant improvement.

yes it is right but also the keel changes in the same period from 390kg to 290kg
