  1. A little update in words but a big step forward with the deck for me! The first tabbed planked done (on the third attempt). Onwards to the next one. Thanks for the likes, comments and having a look. Cheers
  2. Congratulations on finishing Winnie. She looks great and the crew put that bit extra to the gundeck!
  3. I shall borrow then stern cover idea if you don't mind! Your Winnie is looking good!
  4. Yep, that's why I'm lining the whole deck, to take a rest from remaking, for the 3rd time, the first tabbed plank😁🙄. Third time lucky, isn't that what they say!?!
  5. Thank you Frank. With the deck I'm 3 days in and not a lot further on, except being in the process of lining the deck off
  6. Cross cut or rip saw, it's looking fantastic! Very good detail at such a small scale😉
  7. It's no surprise to me, that this dio is well viewed, all down to your skill my friend 😊😁
  8. I've started to add planks to the centre band, I think this may take a while. The rest of the centre sections have been marked out for the planks. Thanks for all the comments, likes or calling by. Cheers
  9. I wouldn't worry about Winnie going anywhere while you're in Patagonia. She'll wait patiently 🙂 Enjoy the trip!
  10. Thank you all for the nice comments. I'll leave the cabin floor natural, with a coat or two of WOP, but I think I shall paint the stove base.
  11. Thank you Gary. Much credit to Chuck for excellent parts! The rest of the margin planks have been made, tweaked and fitted. The cabin floor is dry fitted, the coamings and partners are temporarily glued to facilitate deck planking. This is because I'm bound to damage them when sanding the deck planks. I've cut and placed the centre plank. Glue will follow when I'm completely happy withe the placement. Many thanks to all that have visited, commented or hit the thumbs up. Cheers
  12. All three at times, although golf cannot be played while modelling , or vice- versa😬
  13. Thank you Glenn. Made both ladders they are lovely little projects and definitely worth taking time putting them together. the single ladder is sanded and had a coat of poly. Larger one is waiting for the glue to dry. Been to the library and printed the margin planks. Cut out the sections to test them on Winnie. With a bit of fettling they will be just right. first starboard bow section cut out, and sanded to fit Tomorrow I shall attempt the others and try to match the scarph joints together. As always thanks for the comments, likes and looking in. Everything is greatly appreciated. Cheers
  14. William, welcome to MSW
  15. The bulwark planking is done, and with two coats of paint, the first was Admiralty paints Red Ochre, then a coat of tamiya flat red. I used red ochre so the tamiya red wasn't too in your face red. I also gave the coamings another coat of dull black, along with the main wales. The gratings have been given some WOP. the mast and capstan partners have been made up, detailing still to add. Thanks for all your comments, likes and taking the time to look in👍 Cheers
  16. A sterling job sir! Your patience pays off in dividends. I shall be referring to this post when I do my centreline planking.
  17. There was a film from the 70s with John Wayne about him I think
