  1. In the pic those beeds are not in the kit , no size to make , make my own measuring the pic pieces I guess Amati sucks
  2. What a difference in rudder rigging ,my Amati kit is wayyyy different ,I wonder which is correct lol Nice build
  3. I thought the above what I said would work but then I went down the YouTube rabbit hole and found a few good videos on rigging the shrouds and dead eyes ,I will do that instead
  4. As I'm near the shroud stage this above question about length came up . is it possible to (with dead eyes rigged ) start 1shroud line around a dead eye,seize that,run shroud line up around mast and down to other dead eye ,tighten it and seize it ,then seize the shroud up on mast ?
  5. And now I am missing 4124/10 thread...ugg
  6. As you know I'm doing the bounty ,the reason for this "review" is because Amati hasn't replied to my email and maybe somehow they'll find this review . When I got the bounty the English booklet was weird as there was no instructions for several figures ,so I watched Daveco on YouTube Bounty build ,so I emailed them for digital copy of English booklet ,all good I printed it out and made a new booklet ,I then found the original I had lost and noticed pages missing ,I emailed them again and have heard crickets from them . I hope somehow they find this error That said I'm loving my boat ,
  7. Interesting ,I thought that was what you were talking about ,,I thought it would look nice with black thread , Have a good day !!!
  8. I used the 1mm role the instructions call for . I have no idea what you mean with what seizings are what untarred role is lol the black thread is just thread for sewing ,I used it for the grout on the deck. I'm thinking of epoxy as well
  9. Well,sh*t is getting real now lol this is a good pic for the rope that holds cannon from going backwards at a high rate of speed on my Amati Bounty would epoxy be good to fasten 0.5 mm ring bolts to a bulwarks .5mm hole ? sorry for shameless pic of my awesome deck planking !! Lol
  10. guy on youtube called Davos or close to that did 17 videos on Amatis Bounty ,he explains the issues and how to deal with them, I have that boat and for a second boat it's perfect , Next will be 1/64 Victory for me
  11. Did this last night on my Clara May, I love it ,it antiques some of the Wales it seems ,I'm doing Amati Bounty now and can't wait to oil it Pics are before and after
