  1. Congratulation for this first class model Marsalv. Excellent work
  2. I can only endorse speeches that have just been made, outstanding craftsmanship.
  3. Hi Daniel, I wish you also the best that you have time to build at the Triton soon.
  4. Hi Alex Thanks very much for nice comment. I'm delighted that you like it.
  5. Hi Shaun It gives some other options to get the shrouds to a equal lenght. Here you can see a other one.
  6. I cannot judge this Christian. I like it much more when both sides are similar.
  7. It's always a pleasure to see this fine model Nils. Well done
  8. Hi Christian, I will show a bit of everything. A bit of planking and so much as possible of the frame-build because I have worked so hard to make it. I will apply only 4 strakes below the main-Wales. Furthermore I think to show the ribbands is also very interest.
  9. Hello, Thank you so much for your nice comments and also for the likes. I'm very pleased about this great interest. Here's a little update. Some strakes below the wale and the garboard strake are fitted. The progress is very slowly because It's partial a bit tricky. Also I needed time to find a way to add the planks without leaving any trace at the frames. Therefor the build from Ed of the Extreme Clipper is a great help. In the TFFM-book this strakes are reffered to as thickstuff under the wales. There is a little step from the second to the third strake to see on the following photo. That's why the thickness of the strakes decreases. I will sanding down them when the fourth strake is installed. That's the current progress.
  10. Congrats Ben, it's almost done and she's looking great.
  11. A wonderful model Micheal, very well done.
  12. The rigging is looking and better and better Ray, very nice done.
  13. I admire this excellent quality of the planking at the Stern. Wonderful work Ed.
  14. Hi Aldo I wish you also a happy new year and very much time for model building. So we can see much progress of your nice model
  15. Oh sorry Ed, I'm inconsolable to forgot this. I wish you also a Merry Christmas
  16. Very nice work, the joints are looking good. But you must say to your carpenters they have to tidy the building side
  17. I love this class of ships, these elegant lines. My first sail model were the Cutty Sark from Revel. I can't wait your Young America finished Ed.
  18. Hello, Here's a little update and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I started to fit the ribbands and coloured the Main-Wale black. The ribband-nails are done in the same manner as described in the book from David Antscherl of the Swan-Class. Only the insertion tool was made of a screw and two screw-nuts. For securing the nails I used white clue and think that it works. The Main-Wale is coloured with black stain. Mark gave me this advice in my build of the Leopard and it works very well.
  19. It's always a pleasure to see this accurate work Ed
