  1. Hi Jo, following this one as I did IL Leudo and I'm sure you'll do yourself proud again. 😁👍 Happy new year.
  2. 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.
  3. A happy new year to you and your family also. I think you are doing a great job of Victory LS, keep it up!!
  4. welcome aboard
  5. welcome
  6. 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 🎄🎁😁
  7. Just found this log after seeing it on snapshot page. What an absolutely amazing 'kit bash' , please more!!
  8. welcome
  9. Welcome, good to see you here😁
  10. Have a great Christmas holiday and new year and I look forward to the next chapters. 😁 Thanks Chuck
  11. Welcome and good luck with what sounds like an awesome build👍!!!
  12. 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 👍👍
  13. Welcome Harv
  14. @Peta_V when I have looked a while back apart from he bulkheads all Winchelsea packages shipping was between $16 and $27
  15. Hi, that's a great way of preparing the hull for planking, very nice work, a pleasure to watch😀👍👍
  16. Hi LS , you're doing a splendid job, everytime I look in Victory just gets better and better. Well done my friend 👍😁 Have a good Christmas and New Year and happy shipbuilding!! Have fun with your grandchildren as I am sure I will with mine. Cheers
  17. Welcome Dean have fun with whatever ship you decide to build, you'll be sure to find help and advice here at MSW👍😁
  18. Thankyou Chad, I welcome your input and advice. Hopefully I shall keep getting better but at the moment I still look at what I've done and see where I could have done it differently or better and neater. I still make plenty of errors and most things get made or done more than once. It all helps the learning curve though 😁 Eamonn and Phil thanks for your continued support I really appreciate it👍 Cheers
  19. Hi, just a quick update, I've repositioned the entry steps and adding one more as per plans. Also made the gangway ladder which will go on the side with the deck planking when I finally fit that gangway. My thanks to everyone who has looked in, liked and for comments. Cheers 👍😁
  20. Thankyou Mark, no I've got to change a couple of steps as one should be set where the moulding is! Just a small error on my part😖 Thanks for looking in and your advice 👍
  21. Hello, managed to get a couple or three hours at the workbench, and made a scraper to form the entry steps, I've also fitted them and the fenders to one side of the cross section, the gangway to the same side has been fitted as there are no guns going that side. Thanks for the likes. 😁 Cheers for now 👍
  22. I like your thinking with the walnut and saving boxwood strips, Vane, you're doing a great job on a very nice ship.
  23. Hi I've ordered the motosaw a couple of days ago, as I thought it was good value. From what you've done with it I'm pleased I did. Just waiting for it to arrive. Thankyou. Winnie is looking good, great job!!
