  1. A big congratulations Ed on finishing the most beautiful and well documented build of a model ship that I have ever seen, thanks for leading us through this most amazing journey - it's kept my jaw open every time I look at it. I look forward to seeing the rest of the posts and buying Vol 2 of the book to complete the series. Thanks again Ed. Ben
  2. Looks simply outstanding Augie, you can be very proud of that rigging so far, overall shot shows what a great model you have created, well done. Ben
  3. Hey Chris, looks really good, did you make the wheels or buy them? They look much nicer that what came in my kit in cast metal. Ben
  4. Always amazes me Paul where you find these old photographs, wish we could do that on our older wooden warships! Build looks awesome as always. Ben
  5. Very interesting discussion about glass and mica uses for glazing, I would never of thought of using actual glass on a model but now I will. Ben
  6. That's an interesting serving machine you made there Andy, can you strop blocks on it as well?? Ben
  7. Gotta say man, I have seen Jeff's holly and it's superb but next to the bloodwood/redheart it looks outstanding, awesome contrast. Every update you do makes me sooo jealous of your skills and insight, I want to gain your skills and insight brother. Ben
  8. Hi Mark, Glad your ok there buddy. As a old woodworking teacher from many years ago told me " if it can move, it can bite you ". A good reminder of just what can happen! ben
  9. Glad to see your inevitable success on the top masts, just think - you have a choice on your next build to not even go near that dangly stuff :-) Ben
  10. Very well done Bob, I will be back to remind myself how you did that when I get back to my build, thanks. nem
  11. Augie is right - it's time to smoke a fag, look at its colour and not worry. Ben
  12. I my opinion the Syren is a great model to build if you like her!! You will never have the impetus to finish a model you don't like, but saying that there is a learning curve to everything to take into account. There are a few Syrens to look at here, Augies especially, go for it if you take a few weeks looking at the logs and your still excited. Ben
  13. Great photo with both of them together toni, you should submit that for the MSW calender. Ben
  14. Nice work on the plug there, I haven't tried that approach before and will be interested to see how you get along with it. Also those blocks look really good as well. Ben
  15. Looks just as beautiful as I remember, thanks for posting this build again, lots of inspiration and ideas. Ben
  16. Another awesome detail that you dont often see, thanks for going the extra mile Danny, Inspiring. ben
  17. Sweet Paul, I look forward to seeing all this detail of the piping under there, knowing your skills it will be amazing. Ben
