  1. Very welcome aboard. I watched Tally-ho restoration as well. It looks so challenging isn't it.
  2. When i upload pictures i just drop them on desktop and drag them over to my post and then place them in between text if needed or on beginning or last thing....
  3. Hi. slide in wire (in my case guitar strings, i play guitar so i always have many of them😁) and cut with wire saw.then used sawing needle to open it up if it closed and used dremel diamond cone like file to sharpen it...
  4. When i started planking first layer i did steam bend with my kettle. 😁 and then nailed them to the wooden board with proper shape...time consuming cuz they have to dry ...
  5. Very welcome aboard Ferrus. I wish you best with your build.
  6. Very welcome aboard Michele. Starting your own vlog is the best way to get more help if you struggle with something. Good luck with your models
  7. Very Welcome aboard... Looks so promising, do you planning build vlog ? Hope you are.
  8. Very welcome aboard sir. It's a great community very kind and helpful ppl.. Can't wait to see your models.
  9. Here is my favourite tools i made long time ago (like 20 years old they are) for my card models. this precision screwdrivers was grinded down to shape it like a chisel very flat chisel but works with wood very easy. this needles was cut down and guitar string inserted to push materials out. Finally made this chisels out of high carbon push rods... took me 1 day to make them but worth it...
  10. I am thinking of doing martnets this way without deadeyes looks better imho.not sure again is it ok or not
  11. Thx nice to know that how to spot things from paintings.i will bear in mind that . hm i have arrows to 😀
  12. Meanwhile did main sail martnets example how i planning to do it... Anderson book state this may be the correct one for my build. both side of course .
  13. The earliest one with belaying pins is Vasa i think... Not necessarily British ships should be builded same way but most likely back days nation's share they technology or spy them just like now.😁so maybe they have ones......
  14. Thx a lot. I do research but it looks like there is not much about 15th to 16th century ships unfortunately... Golden hind was disassembled on beginning of 1600th so this ship based on technology from 1500-1570. I believe is much easier find information about ships from 17th till now....i try my best...😁
  15. Thx Sir. Yes i was thinking to do it like this, just wasn't sure... Would you mind if i copy part of your rigging and apply it to my ship ? 🙏 Unfortunately andersons book doesn't cover anything before 1600 year... i just didn't know i can do it the way he explained... Martnets should be on both sides of sail or just one side ?
  16. Welcome aboard. I build card models for years and few plastic ones ,some time ago started my first wooden ship Occre golden hind and i must admit if i knew what i know now i wouldn't even consider this model. Definitely it is not for beginners from my point of view and this instruction is not very clear... I should visit Modelshipworld and ask about it before i started...😁
  17. Hi. Just make sails for my hind. This time used slightly thinner cloth.i think looks a bit better... this holes punched with syringe niddle...i using it also for my card models -works really good. i wil try make all of them like this i am about to make a martnets but for now not sure yet how-i think 3 ropes with 2 blocks and on front or back? not sure yet.
  18. Hi Radek thx it is really first vessel i build wooden one... i build many models in my life but never like this ... many tanks aircrafts modern ships cars even bikes but newer like this. i grow up on maly modelarz if you know one
  19. HI. really ? they didnt used ones? hmmm dont know that...i am trying to follow occre instructions and peterson and lenhard books.. as i mentioned this wessel is my first wooden ship from this period and only one with sails...
