  1. Hi Patrick, thanks for your compliments but it's not really woodcarving.

     

    I used some dentist drills on a little Dremel-thing and making one fish takes about an hour to 'carve'. 

     

    It took some more time and effort to design and build the whole beakhead bulkhead while this is no part of the original model. 

     

    I hope it looks okay...

     

    Cheers,

    Jack

    More of the smaller stuf including 26 canons for the "verdek" - deck

    I didn't want the captain to stare at his maps in the dark, so I brought him some lights

    And finaly, I decided to make this piece (don't know the English word for it) which is absent in Winter's model.

    But, I didn't like the open version.

    I will keep you up to date more often, that's a promise...

    The chest will have steel bands, they will be delivered later, as Tjerk said

    Tjerk ordered himself a package from a well known 17th century furniture shop, that will keep him busy for a few hours:

    I'm proud of him, he even used all of the screws.... (or they ended up at the bottom of the sea :P )

  5. Struggling with the moveable windows, I just can't get it right. The windows are too heavy in my opinion.

    Alternatively I decided to close the 2 center windows en let the outside windows just open. (this is what Dik (7-prov) also assumes.

    I'm still not sure if I leave it this way but I have to go on with the 'Kajuit'

    Still a lot of work to be done.

  6. Hello everyone.

     

    Hereby I will restart my build of the Hohenzollern model by the plans/book of Heinrich Winter.

    The project was started late 2009 based upon the plans of the Mamoli-Friesland kit but I changed

    over to Winter's one. 

     

    Jack is the name, The Netherlands my homecountry.

     

    I will not post updates from the past, I start with new pics the way she is now.

    (for those interested in the start of the project I can give a link to a Dutch forum if you like)

     

     

    The latest update from the stern, not the easiest part
