    Hi, decided to do a bit more work on the full build, so I've started to plank below the wales. It's working out at 18 planks so will divide it into 3 belts. I'm using this as practice for Winchelsea so there may be planks on that may be redone if I'm not satisfied with them, please bear with me. Tried Chucks method of edge bending with the two bow planks, I think by the end of Triton I will be getting it right more often.

    Hello, happy new year to everyone. My first time back in the workroom since before the holidays and I had to buy some blocks from Chris Wattons Vanguard Models as my attempts were absolutely atrocious, so I took the easy route. Have finally rigged one cannon still have the other to do. The one I have done has been fitted as "run in" mainly because I found it easier to fit the tackles but also I've not seen any portrayed this way. I may be wrong and someone else has done it. I kind of like it. The second cannon will be fitted "run out " as the norm. Thanks for all the likes, comments and input from you all, it is much appreciated. Cheers 👍😁

    This kit has always looked very good and it will be interesting to follow along from the start, I'm booking my place early. Looks like you've made a good start.

    Thanks for the compliment Phil, hopefully the cross section will be done and dusted by the new year, and then I'll have Triton full hull do and Winchelsea to start.😆 Yes that's the better way, I've put the first attempt in the bin, I will try again😁👍 Merry Christmas and happy new year to you and your family 🎄🎁😁

    Hi all, another small update, I decide to fit the access ladder to the gangway on the unplanked side, therefore I had to put a small area of deck for the ladder to stand on. Also made the second gun barrel, it still needs painting. To rig the cannon I need blocks but looking through my bits and pieces I have not got enough so I'm attempting to make my own. I've used a piece of 4x3mm walnut and made 4 single and 4 double blocks. I need to get them to look less "blocky" if you get my meaning. I thought if I put them in a small pot with coarse sand it might work a bit like a tumbler, I'll let you know how I get on next time. I appreciate all the likes, comments and advice 😁 Cheers 👍👍
