Well Druxey I have to agree with you. Would strengthen the hull that's for sure. Gary -
Alan it's looking outstanding and will even look better when you get the door way's cut out. I take it you will be installing the stern timber's next? Look forward to the next update. Gary

Your welcome Mark. I thought it was castello boxwood. Just love working with that. One thing about it is it doesn't show much of a grain which help's enhances one's work. Thank you again. Gary

Hi Allan, was just a little bit lost. Had to go back and look in your book Vol 1. Makes sense after reading what you wrote. Thanks. Gary- 97 replies

Hi Peter. Your work is looking outstanding but have a question. You mention that your waiting for some copper foil to put between the keel and false keel. Can you tell me where you found this bit of infomation. Don't think I have come across it. Thank you good sir and will be watching your build come to life. Gary- 97 replies

Looking good Mike. Am looking forward to your next update. As far as the cold temperatures, you can keep them.

Looking good Dusan and perfect just like the rest of the ship. Gary

Looks good Mike and ever thing looks ship shape, a very pleasant view of her and easy on the eye's. You should be proud of your self with a big pat on the back. A build that we strive for in our own build's. Gary

Kevin I wouldn't mind seeing it to and was wondering how Maury keep's it in place. Have a couple of pieces which would work just fine. Enjoyed your last Video and look forward to the next one. Gary

Amalio she is outstanding and a work of art. You could display her next to the Mona Lisa and your's would be the work of art that shines. Gary -
May you have the same Mark, look forward in hearing and seeing more of your build and just talking to you and all the other good folks here on the site. Happy New year. Gary

Hi Christain. We are doing ok and every body stayed home so the deep freeze isn't affecting us to much. We are all getting together Monday to celebrate Chistmas. Figure the roads will be cleared by then. Hope every one is doing great and Happy New year.
-
Merry Christmas every one and a Happy New year. Hope that every one get's what that want and lot's of it. Gary

Mark I believed they were called the bolster piece's, at least that is what is listed in Falconer Dictionary. Steel calls them anchor lining, solid pieces of oak, bolted to the ships side. . Pieces of oak timber fayed to the curvature of the bow under the holes down upon the upper cheek, or solidly between the cheeks to prevent the cable from rubbing against the cheeks. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Gary

Hi Toni. When you look at the other plan of Pegasus mast partners, the aft end goes all the way across the beam and the forward end goes what looks to me 95 percent across the forward beam. At least that's what I see. Maybe David or Greg will charm in and set me straight . I do have the deck plan of the Fly and was going to add a photo of that deck but the battery is dead so might be able to post one later. From what I can tell is they are all just a little different, which led's me to believe that how it was done probably had some to do with what ship yard it was built in. Gary
-
Well Greg, you and David have once again done another outstanding job and a very beautiful model and a nice set of book's on top of that. You two should be very proud of her and your accomplishments. What's next for you guys in the future? Gary
-
Hi Ben. Here is a photo of my Alfred that shows how I did the main partner on her and laid out the forward hatch. Hope that is of some help
-
Hi Chris. I know you posted that you will be doing her in 1/64 but what about 1/48? Would make a heck of a nice model that's for sure. Gary

Hi Picard. One way to look at it, wood is very forgiving. If you don't get it right the first time try try again. It does give you experience so keep going and before you know it your be able to plank a hull in no time at all. As far as planking a hull am still working at it to get it just right. Gary
-
Hi Mark. Here is a couple of photo's of the cheeks and they items made for them. Its been awhile since I made them but believe I used a piece of curved wood to get the right curve on them using a heat gun after putting water on them. Hope it help's Gary
-
Hi Matiz and thank you for the compliment. Gary
-
Just outstanding matiz. Makes me want to go back and redo my pumps. What a joy to watch your build and Merry Christmas good sir. Gary

Hi No Idea. I believe that the small blocks are to help keep the gammoning cable from sliding down on the bowsprit. Believe that the small blocks are called the gammoning cleat's. Gary
