  1. The channels on the bow are ready. Correct or not?? who knows ... Current status Next, the fore castle, an attempt to...
  2. Off topic, but. As a former 3M employee (retired). Up until 25 years ago, the resin that "glues" the "sanding grains" to the paper was made from phenol and formaldehyde. Not environmentally and health friendly, but of great quality. Now a different, healthier resin is used. Less unhealthy, certainly. Better...? Search the 3M website. You might find the sandpaper you are looking for there.
  3. Thanks Not scuppers These are holes for the sheets and taks of the main and fore sail But, scuppers scuppers?? There are scuppers in the hull and i forgot them. Oops
  4. The words written before or after "pont" say a lot about what exactly is meant by "pont". From a French Dutch dictionary from 50 years ago at school. I'm curious to see what your bow will look like. Mary Rose's turned out surprisingly to be very pointed
  5. Before continuing with the forecastle, a few smaller items were added first. And yes, a hole was also drilled through the planking In this cabin on the starboard side, a hole was made through the hull here. so there is also one provided on the port side On each side, 3 standards were placed as a basis for the channel and rigging rail Next some extra parts (exact name?) And the basis for the port side channel, made from 3 parts Now first check whether the standing rigging of the fore mast has space in relation to the forecastle. No, so version 2 of the cardboard forecastle (right) My first impression of this channel. The right side should be narrower and would function as a rigging rail The schrouds (6) will be placed in the middle And the left side should also be narrower so that one of the two anchors can be attached there. Ideas, comments on this are always welcome
  6. Indeed, wonderful. It was great to follow the build of this model. Whats next 😉 ??
  7. The standards, channel en extra supports on the port side are ready Next, standards,channels, etc. at the bow area. Almost nothing remains of the original. So, first i do test setups before building. step one, 3 extra standards and a wale
  8. Standards and channel starboard side. Not every standard matched with the paintwork 😓 painting the hull in advance also has disadvantages for glueing. clamping construction of the (very long) channel. The channel touches the hull only on 2 places. Strange, I've never seen this anywhere else Channel in place, now the small standards. A rigging rail is also placed. No belaying pins on Mary Still to do : treenails, bolts and danish oil
