  1. HiSteve, your Endeavour lookd great, very nice Fitting out Details, choise of Colors and rigging so far to be seen... Nils
  2. a Little update for the Quarterdeck.. Little binnacle cabinet Nils
  3. Looks to be an ambitious and promissing log Sam, am waiting for you to "push out the boat" Nils
  4. Thank you Popeye, there are so many of These small deck Fittings to be done, I am trying to get the binnacle cabinet assembled and completed today. All the Fittings go in row and there is hardly space to get all in line. Nils
  5. Very nice work Mark, it`s amazing to follow the look with every Progress update.. Nils
  6. some more pics for the steering.... acc. to plan and etch parts the wheel is soldered together from 5 individual parts plus drum and shim disc at the aft side tiller shortend a bit and eyelets for the Tackling set Nils
  7. Setting the tiller for steering either for Manual direct, or for steering with tackle rope and wheel. In raw shaped condition, Needs to be fine tuned... here the tiller parts tiller mounted to the Fitting socket tiller upwards curve for Manual steering or in downwards mode for rope steering (via blocks and wheel) Nils
  8. Build log part 34 concentrating on the Quarterdeck the deckbeams arecready to take on the deck the uncolored figure is 25 mm hight... the painted figure is 28mm hight the cutaway of the Quarterdeck allows sight to the inside gratings, capstan, Skylight housing and deckframe for ladder added Build log part 35 to follow... Nils
  9. Thank you B.E. for your explain on ladder a capstan. I was a Little bit between the Options of putting on the Quarterdeck ladder, or Fitting the gundeck capstan spars, so theat These could be visible through the Quarterdeck outcuts from above. Nils
  10. A very impressive model Chris, and beautifully built Nils
  11. Who knows ? here rises the question... the downleading stairway (not shown here yet) from the Quarterdeck will be landing between capstan and the next downward starcase, interferes full with the gundeck capstan, if it should be operated with 360 ° turn. does the Quarterdeck stair have to be fitted moveable with hinges, for instance to be hauled up against the Quarterdeck from beneath, to allow full capstan operation ? Nils The downward stairs from the Quarterdeck interferes full with the capstan Operation....
  12. Thank you B.E. I`m hesitating for putting on the quarter deck and the forcastle deck because the guns underneath, as well as the anchor rigging would have to be installed permanently before. I think I`ll do the anchor- messenger rigging next, when I get the appropriate ordered ropes. Also the upper bulwark portions of the welldeck and the swivel gunposts Need some attention Nils
  13. Thank you Popeye, due to the fact that there are only 4 gunlids shown on the plan and therefore done, it was not much extra effort to make them moveable, it was a bit tricky in soldering those mini-hinges Nils
  14. A master`s work Gary, I get excited for so much authentic shipbuilding, it is wonderful ! Nils
  15. Hello Jack, I just looked into your build log, its a great build, the vikings realy knew how to shape a good boat and for best seaworthiness. Your model is looking fabulous in all Details. Lovely photos, those with the black Background well done ! Nils
