This is my shipyard before the pests moved in.And this is what happened. But I am happy to say that the shipyard is open again. Although I am not ready to build yet, it just needs a little cleaning up and organizing . It's a lot brighter now , which is good. Notice my newest tool for the shipyard to the left lol. I brought the ships back down today, wow I can not belive how much dust got on the ships. The Pegasus was not so bad, but the Mayflower was very dusty . So I decided to shelf the Pegasusand clean up my Mayflower. There is not much left to do on her so I want to clean her up and finish it. Then I can put her under the display case. Also, rigging the Mayflower will help tune me up for the Pegasus. Lol I have work to do in the kitchen, I repaired most of it, now I just have to sand and paint. But I will be very anxious to get back to my Pegasus. By the way the pests WERE norway rats, some were shot, some were trapped, and one the dog got, most didn't like what we fed them lol but they're gone. And we check everyday for movement lol . Ok off to finish my Mayflower, see you soon. Bob.M

Sad news Paul. You should post some pictures of your Lady Nelson to see where you are at. There are some excellent logs for the LN on MSN, follow a few of those and you be on your way to getting her done. Good luck on your journey, -
Hi Peter, those pins usually don't come with the kits. This is what I use Headless pin nails. They do make it stronger, if you just glue them on a slight knock will knock them off. Hope it helps. BOB M.

Hello Brad, on my Amati Nina they go through the mast and are tied on the deck with three hole violin blocks, then tied to the fife rail. Hope this helps.

Peter, I believe that you can . I think you put your model in the scratch build area, under the right year. Then tag it "Restoration" If this is not right the moderators will change it LOL Good luck on your journey. Welcome aboard!!

Good luck on your journey #2, remember to ware your mask 😷 when char removing 😁. I found if I used the back side of my 10 blade first sanding was quicker. But it is slow steady work. Good luck Bob M.

David, I looked at a lot of St. Roch builds today the ones that look the best are just in line with the portholes. I even went to the Vancouver Museum web site, their St. Roch portholes are even with the rubbing stake. I think they look good. Can we lower the rubbing stake just a bit or do you have to raise the portholes. I would go for a little tidier than accuarcy but I am a newbie lol.
