  1. I had the same problem. With a constant feed, no problem. from the moment you stop, burning. On both the table saw and the band saw.
  2. Nice work. The new shape of the fore castle is indeed much better.
  3. Thank you all for the nice comments and likes.
  4. Deck planking is done Holes are drilled an toothpicks for treenailing
  5. Fore castle update The general shape is ready, my own free interpretation. In the open parts on the middle deck shields still have to come Current status Progress was slow in decamber. because... Went ice fishing in Lapland Dreamed about a big (fish) catch... 😇 Actually I like cats more then dogs, but this was fun And the aurora borealis was fantastic And in between a new small project Thanks for following
  6. Wood from fruit trees (cherry, apple, pear, walnut) is very pleasant to work with. And it is also easy to bend (walnut a little less) I have no experience with plum wood. I was curious about your experience with oak wood, personally I don't like using it
  7. Looks great, Make the top of your plywood frames as sturdy as possible sorry about your band saw belt 😓
  8. You have mail PLANKING scale 1:1 The planks are of sawn oak; their lengths vary between 2m and 6m. The average plank width is 300–460mm; thickness varies between 50 and 70mm. I used this data from an English wreck for the dimensions of the planks.
  9. My brother-in-law fishes in his spare time. I told him I caught a really big fat fish. But the hole in the ice was too small to pull it up... He didn't believe me. Home now, today or tomorrow i will look fore info and answer on your Questions.
  10. Indeed, a very intriguing view of the upper part of the fore castle 🤔
  11. Very good for a first model. Most important, learn and enjoy building
  12. If I were to redo mine GH it would be without. because historically more accurate
  13. Nice find on the coins and nice military models in the background. I did a Nato manoeuvre in 1983. Cardboard frames are looking great.
