Looking very nice my friend. I do believe that bus was at Chatham, unless you drove it down to Portsmouth

Thanks Lawrence for the kind words, No plans to go into business with these. If you'd like to buy something similar (but probably better), check out Chuck's blocks on his Syren Company site. I have simply used his method to make my own.

That's one monster kit Kevin! I'll follow along with interest too, even though it's you who have left us (woodies that is). Do you plan to keep your Vic going in parallel, or are you taking a total break from wood?

I've seen lots of ways of making gratings before Sherry, but never that one! Looks like you've done your usual fine job too. Well done!

Hey, great story Mahuna. As a proud owner of both Sherline lathe and Mill (and more accessories than I care to let my wife know about ) it's nice to read about such fabulous customer support. I'm glad for you that you had such an opportunity.

Nicely done Bob. Good choice to proceed with the treenails.

Welcome home John. It's great to hear that you had such a wonderful trip, capped off by the opportunity to meet with some of the truly wonderful people from this forum. Now, get in the shipyard and get back to work!

Hi Robert, Great to see you back in the shipyard and continuing with your lovely build. Looks like your gun carriages are going to turn out great. Of course, we all know that this was just another excuse to play with your Byrnes saw Isn't it just a wonderful machine to use?!!!

Jsiegel17, Welcome to my log. I am truly glad if my humble build has inspired a return to your own build. I thought mine had been going a little while, having started in 1996, but it seems you have about ten years on me! As long we remind ourselves that it's not a race, well be okay! Do you have a build log of your own? If not, it's never too late to start one It will be your best source of advice, encouragement, and inspiration. In the meantime, if I can be of any further assistance, don't hesitate to ask.

More like the wrong THREE first for me! (Yeah, go figure....)

Danny, For the benefit of any Aussies wondering, you can order LoS online here: http://www.polymerclay.com.au/xlgel2liverofsulphurextendedlifegel2oz-p-12378.html I have some and it works really well.

Okay you lot, stand aside or lose a limb!!! I'm coming through - a little late, but in time for a second row seat at least I hope. Looks to be a really interesting subject John, I'll join the crowd and applaud as usual.

Very nice Patrick. I'll bet you're glad now that you took the time and effort to fix that waterline.

HMS Sussex by mij - Scale 1:48
gjdale replied to mij's topic in - Build logs for subjects built 1501 - 1750
Can you tell us the model number of the one on the right in the photo please? I can't seem to spot it on the Proxxon site. Looks cool though! -
Hi Eric, Welcome to the MSW forum from Down Under! Sorry to hear of your troubled start but I'm sure it will get rectified soon. I think you have chosen probably the best Victory kit currently on the market and I wish you well with it. While there are a number of CC Victory builds here, and even more from other manufacturers, I do recommend that you have a look through Gil Middleton's build log. I think his is a great guide for any Victory builder, with lots of tips and tricks to guide your way. I look forward to following your progress.

I think that will be a good choice Clare. A nice contrast to draw the eye to a feature of the build.
