  1. Awesome job Peter, congratulations. My next build will be Mantua's Santa Maria. I am sure your build will contribute a lot to mine I am following with a big interest.
  2. Thank you for visiting my log. I think there must be reinforcements where the cannon riggings are attached on the bulwarks against recoil. I would be glad if i contribute to your build. By the way, i was following your build on instagram
  3. Hi Anna, this is how i am bending planks. I keep planks in boiled water about 15 mins and clamp it around a suitable glass, lid or somethig like circular object and let it dry. I hope it helps. Regards,
  4. Lifeboat trial. I am trying to build lifeboat from wood instead of metal cast one given in the kit. I hope i can success.
  5. Anchor assembly. The metal cast part does not look fine, i made it from wood. And some paintings done.
  6. Thank you very much for your attantion. Yes, i have found new version online intruction manual of AL San Francisco kit and pictures are detailed. There is nop problem right now.
  7. I had to change the shape of grate in the head because i couldn't make the original shape given in the kit plan. By the way i continued producing detail parts.
  8. i need some help about rigging between cat davits and anchors because there isn't detail in instruction manuel of the kit and i cannot find anything on the internet either. If anybody have detailed pictures, can you share here please. Thank you in advance.
  9. I haven't done anything on my build for long time. I got retired and returned back to my homecity. I prepared my balcony as a shipyard to continue my builds. I am sharing what i did on my San Francisco II in last month without comment and i will continue to share developments. I just want to state that altough kit plan does not contain second layer of planking on the hull i did second layer (0,5 mm of mahogany) beause i didn't like first layer.
  10. Thanks for visiting my log Peter. I have been busy nowadays and have not been able to touch my SM. I just moved to another city and am still preparing my shipyard i hope i will start building soon. regards, Mustafa
  11. Very good job Peter. I tried to build Santa Maria last year as well. You can check if you want. May i ask which method you are using for tapering the strips at the bow? Do you cut or sand them? Thanks.
