I'm so sorry to hear of your loss Sherry. My sincere condolences to you and your family. You have certainly given your brother a place of honour here. -
Thanks Lawrence, I make the blocks up in batches. The set-up is a little fiddly and time consuming, but once done, it is just as easy to make 200 as it is to make 20, so I just make as many as I can get out of a batch of stock. What I don't use for Victory will go into "inventory" for future builds. And definitely no intention of going into the block-selling business!!! Time has been a challenge for me lately, and likely to continue that way for a while. But I'll get to start attaching blocks to yards soon......I hope.

Very clever idea with the toothpicks Sherry! An Ark? Nothing could be farther from the truth!!!
-
Super work Mike. It's coming together very nicely indeed.
-
Exquisite - that's the word I was looking for Michael! Seeing the carronnade next to your hand really does highlight the intricacy of your work Johann. "Exquisite" seems to capture it nicely.

A really interesting project Rob. Looks like you've made a great start.

This looks really interesting Mike. Do you have any pictures/drawings of the ship itself that you can show us? Love your Gantry, especially the addition of the levels.

Mobbsie, Great description and pics of your set up. Think I'm gonna have to get me some of these!!!

Great photo Mark - really shows both how big she is, and how much work you've put into her already. Looking forward to some "serious" build time now - just as soon as the "honey-do" list is complete.
-
Gosh Mark, only one week off and the brain has gone to mush already! You'd better go get a job to keep the mind active.......
-
Happy Birthday Jim! Hope you spent the the day relaxing and doing something for yourself, instead of all of us demanding customers!
-
Welcome home again Sherry. Nice to see some more photos of your lovely model - you really are doing a super job on this.

Hi Gil, I found myself going back over your log for ideas and techniques regarding fitting out the yards. I've been distracted by building boats and making blocks for so long, I'd forgotten what I was doing! It was great to have your log as a handy reference. Thanks for the detailed explanations and photos - they have been a big help.

Looking good Rusty. Have a great trip!

Great work Bob. You're really hustling along there.

Beautiful work Danny - those wood worms sure are well trained!

Very sorry to hear that Andy. My sincere condolences to you and your family.

Thanks Bill - guess I'd rather live in Wisconsin then
-
Yeah - wot he said!

Great work Robbyn. You must be thrilled to have completed her (almost). Congratulations. I'll look forward to following your Syren build - I'm sure you will make a first class job of her too.

More fabulous craftsmanship Toni.
