  1. Simply amazing what you can do with that mind of yours! I could never achieve those results by hand.
  2. Good looking wood! I really like the thought of doing the Winnie in cherry. I've used cherry on a few models and it is nice to work with and looks really nice when finished!
  3. Oh so sweet! Very nice explanation and pictures of the wales and black strake. I've been pondering that too. I'm torn between the picture of the Amazon and how we did the deck on the Confederacy. It's fun to ponder these decisions. Enjoy your building time and a happy 4th to you too!
  4. Thanks for the update and milling tips. She's looking great and thankfully the busy summer and complete lack of shoptime quenches my desire to start on her!
  5. Great to hear that your nearing the release of the Alert. Congratulations and I'm sure it will be greatly received!
  6. That is just one of the greatest ideas I’ve ever seen! Very nice!
  7. Very nicely done Chuck. Your step by step explanation as well as accompanying pictures will make it much easier to do. Thanks.
  8. While waiting for my new line I made 4 three block assemblies. They consist of two 3/32 single blocks and one 1/8" single block. These are for rigging the lower yards sheets, tacks and clue lines. The new line has arrived and now the rigging can continue! Thanks also for all the likes.
  9. She's looking really good. Your usual excellent workmanship. I went with both guns at the bow as it looked better to me.
  10. Onward we go. I'm temporarily stalled as I underestimated the amount of .008 line I would need. An order with Syren was made and as usual Chuck shipped right away. Hope to have it in a day or two! This where I am at this moment.The anchors have been re rigged and back in place. All of the Topgallant and Royal Yard rigging has been completed. I've completed the main and fore lower yard braces too. Next up is the sheets, tacks and clue lines when I receive the ordered line.
  11. She's looking really good. The pictures are nice but she looked even better in person. Keep up the good work.
