  1. Hi Antony. Do you have a log of this kit? I like to see and learn from other's build log. Regards, Cristi
  2. Hi Vince, i remember the log you had, and also Denis had the same problem.. i understood that for wood they made a new cutting plan, tat is a little smaller.. We have to build, as we can, and hope to have good results. It is a pitty because the price of this kit is high Regards Cristi
  3. Here is the start of the building. I will work in parallel with SoS I also made a small jig to cut planks equal and quicker
  4. I made some pictures from the plans. There are too big to scan on a normal scanner, so i will put photos for the one interested
  5. After 40 year of television, i retired, and ai received this Gift from my old team. I started asap because i wanted to sow respect to my team. (Even i was working to my Sovereign..) So this is the kit
  6. Hi Paul, it is an excellen kit (after you finish), but for the moment i work hard with some problems with the brass parts. Some are bad finished ibn the kit, some are a little bigger (the scale is a little different for wood parts and for bras) Hope at the end to be ok. Regards, Cristi
  7. It seams ok, and for instructions, you can find more accurate new instructions, and also good logs here. I look to all logs to learn from all that buil Sovereign (and also some other ships) Cristi
  8. Hi to all, it seams that now part of the problems are gone. One "small problem" is that i want and have to stay with the 3 grandchildren, and even i am "retired" from job, since the end of the year, i have just a few momens for me and my hobby. I like to stay with the small kids (even now, i prepare to go with the smallest - 1.4 year to park and snoe), and hope to heve more time to work regards to all and a Happy new year Cristi
  9. hi Don, glad to see you too, and hope to have mo time from now, as i am a "retired" man, but i love the 3 grand children, and i have to spend with all a lot of time. Started a small building with Mantua 740 combat pozt, and i want to build this with my 7 year grand daughter Raisa
  10. For the first set of guns, i made a small "jig" and cut some parts Also i made some small sanding tools. I had to "sand" 84 beams for the deck
  11. After a very long pause to my SoS, obliged by "repaint the house", after flooding of my house, some problems with the children and grandchildren, a very small holiday, and health problems with my mother in law, i came back, a little to my hobby Started with small parts, to regain dexterity. Cuted some parts and sanding

  16. A large PAUSE with the Christmas hollydays Just some small tests with the carving soft Looks ok, but i learned how the wood has to be, before starting a project I wish to all people from MSW a HAPPY NEW YEAR ! And a lot of good thoughts from me Cristi
  17. Hi Denis. Glad to hear that you will start soon the work. Did you finished to work to the house? Wait to see new pictures from your work All the best, Cristi
  18. Hi Pat. For the laser printing it came with a basic software, very, good. For carving,it came with the "sending commands software - GRBL) and you have to prepare what to carve. Also for carving, you have two software that came with the CNC. One to prepare "leter carving" and one more sophisticated , ArtCam, for better work. You also have on DVD a program for carving on PCB. It is ok for the start, and if you want to do more things, you have to use some other. I work on graphics on computer, and i think that for most of us it is ok with what it is on DVD If you need more info, just write all the best to all Cristi
