  1. Anchor assembly. The metal cast part does not look fine, i made it from wood. And some paintings done.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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
  7. 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.
  8. Planking goes on. The planking takes time because i am using only white glue and i have to taper both tips of each plank and have to soak them to bend. The magohany is a brittle wood and we need to be carefuly while bending it.
  9. Thank you for visiting my log Ragova. The clapms help me a lot in planking because i only use white glue which needs time to dry.
  10. i have started hull planking. I am bending the planks with the help of hot water and a suitable glass.
  11. Thank you Trufo and Anthony. Yes Anthony my another friend has given that advice too and i am planning to apply this in my next bending process
