  1. Looking a bit snowy the deck ... Nice update. I thought your topic a bit silent for your doin' At least a car can be blamed!
  2. Piet, To me you behave like a teenager, so you must be one With your stamina, and drive ... you can't be that old
  3. Piet You could still do the dock and water. I've seen somewhere a model quay with an underwater view of the foundations (from Rotterdam ... where else) They used a 2 mm plastick sheet for water ... Just an idea ... What remains ... what about next buildssszzzzz
  4. I cando with the macro photography ... my eyesight isn't getting any better either. Fortunately I can steel see some of the detail. I enjoy your build tremendously!
  5. You could make a spray box with a ventilator used in e.g. a bathroom, or an old hood from above a kitchen stove and lead it outside through flexible tubing. You won't get that spray smell either ... P.s. I have to admit I use the same unhealthy setup as you ...
  6. The service boat looks finished! The details your build shows are marvelous Cristiano. You will be thrilled your guns load has been dealt with
  7. That's one superb showcase mate! Looks really great. At the rate you are building you might need to extend it before long ...
  8. Hi Adrieke, Love your spray box, a tadd unhealthy, but who's complaining ... I'm glad your pictures are large, for you've got to show some small details! Looking forward to the GF's further growth and development.
  9. No, no,no,no,no! The mine drop-down doors on the bottom ... - Remco help me convince this superb builder - they should be there. ... Maybe not in working condition, but visible! I'm glad I could be of help, dear Sir. Don't forget to put some reinforcement below the mounts. Besides those reinforcements will make the 'tray' more sturdy. Considering the height of those pedestals or blocks ... try it first with some scrap wood ... maybe you'd be surprised ... 1", 1.25, 1.5" who knows
  10. Kees, Marvelous detail, I especially like lights. (For the non-Dutch amongst us: Size of a guilder is approx. 1")
  11. You could use a frame with a thin plank (1/4") on top. Not much weight and you can make it as big as you want
  12. That and maybe they didn't want to show off the spacious quarters the officers and crew lived in ... On the other hand, you might try the British naval history museum ...
  13. Jay, I know, even regional differences are sometimes hughe, I could start but won't. At least we understand each other, since we both originate from the same city. And for my English pronounciation ... I'm lucky, it;s nearly propper English.
  14. I almost feel sorry for your (English/American) linguistic problems,almost. I'm happy we do not have such devastating problems. Keeping the water out and buidlng ships is good enough for me. You are doing great Jay!! Love those firm, and sturdy hammocks.
  15. Siggi I googled for you and went through the books I have which could possibly have an answer, but unfortunately ... nothing. We need a jump back into time and have alook for ourselves it seems.
  16. Bob it ain't a multi milion dollar Yacht! A bit of sticky vinil can be expected ... Plastic crockery, glasses, cutlery, and whatever else comes to hand. However, she still looks like a jewel amongst her kind!!!
  17. Marvelous job Piet. I seems Remco is up to it again ... Wonder what rabbit he will pull out the proverbial hat
  18. Texxn5 John dropped a mine on you and Gwen let that happen!!! Jupz Remco is a nice guy, he's Dutch, just like you ... a golly ... so am I Ah well, as you noticed lots and lots of people are involved with you and your build ... They even try to get the best out of you!!!
  19. No snow today ... It's just freezing your n.ts off ... The snowdeck is probably thick enough not to have some more downpoor I cannot imagine how you will make the spark plug ... Will it have any porcelain insultaion ?
  20. Lovely boat, keep it it up just two left ... I know you can do it, I know you will do it
