  1. Outstanding craftsmanship as ever Gaetan. It's always a great pleasure to follow this build.
  2. Hi Christian and Kevin Thanks so much for the nice comments and also for the likes. Your interest is always a great motivation. Yes Christian I know it my friend . But I suspect that needs to many time.
  3. Hello Guys Most of the outside sanding is done and the Main-Wale is started. The Wale at the bow is strongly curved and it's very hard to bend it as you know. I decided to saw out this part and it worked very well. To fit the following parts were a lot easier Another difficult part is last ledge at the stern. The ledge must be formed exactly before bonding. This approach should be used at all the parts of the planks because it's much easier. The current progress The next update is coming when the Main-Wale is finished
  4. Hi Timmo Now I know your build again . I have lost sight at the last time. You are doing a great job, very nice work. Such a serving machine is invaluable, very well done.
  5. Much thanks for the nice comment Timmo. And also much thanks for the likes. I used following timbers: Stern, keel, stem and so on I used maple False-keel is swiss-pear (same as at the Triton) Main-wale is linden wood. I had some ledges from the build of the Irene Planks, Channel-wale, black-strake is birch
  6. Thanks so much for your statement Richard. I had much trouble with vibration during the sanding. That's the reason for this thought. If I saw your "mystique photo" (I like it very much) , it was clear to me to do it also.
  7. Hi Rob, the frames are looking very good, I'm sure you are on a right track.
  8. Better slowly and the parts are fitting well, so as yours Ben. Very nice work.
  9. It's always a pleasure to see this model Ed, outstanding
  10. Thanks so much for the nice comment Mick and also for all the likes. I would like to install the Main-Wale at next to stabilize the konstruction. But I'm not really sure to do this yet because the most modelbuilder are doing this later. Are there reasons not to do so?
  11. I'm pleased to see you back in the shipyard Gary. Great work as always.
  12. Hello Christian and Nils Much thanks for your nice comments. I can think of no better job
  13. Fantastic work as always Edward, that's a grand cinema.
  14. Hi Nils I'm with Martin, the sails must looking great at your model
  15. Hello Guys Sanding needs much more time as I thought. I began to fit the stern-timbers to have some change. Now it goes on with sanding
  16. Congrats Ben, she's looking really good. Wow what a tidy workshop, there you can eat from the floor
  17. That's a good option for the steps in scratch building Rob. I wish you all the best about your build.
  18. Wow Daniel, nice progress. She's looking really good. To simulate the caulking try a black permanent marker. I believe this will be a bit easier. At my Leopard had it worked very well.
