Hi, so I got up today ,son arrived big grin on my face, he says what do you need, lol. Told him needed 4 , three inch finishing nails welded to these pieces of metal . He used to do that, he good is at it, anyway, this is what we made... a jig for me to cut straight. I think this will help me, still need a few more lessons on the computer, lol, lots. Well it is all just primed right now not sure how I want to paint it , Its a jig we made for me , Got the idea from people here and want to say a tip of the hat to Louie da fly and others here. He also sent me stuff on canons that I am going to use for sure. Sorry about posting a picture then talking about it later. Kids are on the floor laughing at my computer skills, more,,, lesson,,, lol look out I found the emoji lol

Well negations are still under way, it is tuff lol. Slowly getting it, and now allowed to post in my own log only, but I snuck in a few when they were not looking, lol, Got cost over run issues with the first mate ,this hobby can be costly . So I snuck an un specified amount of bulk heads and a few planks from La Nina, will look aright after some putty and sanding . And the life boat working on those things as well, the Pinta is in for repairs I can fix it but now do I have to call it a Bash kit lol. If not for a few here that have told me to keep going I would have packed it in, silly I know but human and their feelings. Just so you know I ask my son what's a post count , I told him that I posted a picture here and it said will not affect my post count he said what do you think a post count is I said I go to the pile need four post to fix the fence so post count is four he still on the floor laughing so hard but catching on lol, Sorry for all the confusion, I got this little miter box and a new set of tweezers' for the job, so will be able to make things a little straighter , better than cutting free hand. hope to know you all better as I get to learn my way around, need some rope and advice on scale but finding things better, and keeping thing realistic for that time period. thanks so much MSW, I join the NRG but I don't know how to put the logo on my page lol,

OFF course, well with a mighty slap of the hand, yep the Pinta flew across the ship yard , frustrated by my computer lack of skill and not catching on lol. And not wanting to ask the same questions over and over , 😕 , thought of leaving but won't learn that way, down but not out. Tec support is on they way lol 😆 😂

Back to The Pinta lol, planking is going good got them even at the front this time I broke a bulk head but it's OK, Funny note on the SM I made a mistake on the poop deck I let the sides of the ship flow out wards so it did not cover so had to add some side pieces, this time I fitted it first then realized that I had to remove the tips of the bulk heads lol. So had to add some to the side of the deck on the this one too lol 😆 . Well that's all I got. Thanks

On a side note, a friend of my moms is building the Astrolabe 1812. He found out I was doing modeling I went over wow , but he is old school and has less computer skills then me lol . A bonus for me because he has lots of the books people talk about here just thought you might want to look 😉 🙂
