    Hi all. Small update. the bowsprit is done and work has started on the foremast. Alot of the metal pieces’ rings came broken as can be seen in one of the photos. I have thus far used the intact ones. Any ideas to fix or substitute are welcome. Ordinarily, i would just super glue the broken pieces but the broken off rings are nowhere to be found. Maybe i just have to insert extra eyebolts in the mast or is there a more elegant solution? All comments and suggestions are welcome. kind regards

    Hi all. a milestone has been reached. All deck fittings have been added and the whole deck has been varnished( unfortunately, the metal pieces on which the 3 lifeboats at the back rest are too small and are broken. I have decided to hang two of the lifeboats on the rear davits). The next step is to fit all the eyebolts and anchors etc.. and then its onto the masts and rigging. kind regards

    Hi all. progress has been a bit slow due to mid semester exams. The fore and mainmast deadeyes are complete as well as some deck furniature. regards

    The cutty sark is an amazing kit. Instructions are a bit crude though. regards

    Hi all. the channels have been fitted as well as the larger deadeyes(i am busy with the smaller ones). I messed up with the channels in the provided mohogany so i used some left over walnut. I also fitted some of the features on the front of the boat. The anchor davits were quite tricky as the instructions are blurry. The front railing has also been fitted. regards.

    The hatches are done ( i will only put in the eyebolts and rings after varnishing the deck ). I also finished one of the deckhouses. I lost the doors so i had to improvise…. They are almost like a kit of their own. Regards

    Installation of the stanchions is complete and work has started on the hatches…

    Hi all, a quick update… the whole model has been sprayed with a clear lacquer to protect the paint etc.. making and installation of the stanchions has also begun. This part is going to take long…

    Thank you very much. yes. I think i will sink them into the waterways as not to accidentally drill through the thin bulwarks as they have already been varnished and would be a pain to fix up. kind regards

    Hi VitrusBering. The belaying pins are made from cast metal. kind regards.
  31. Reub
    Ill definitely go take a look🙂. kind regards

    Okay cool. I do have some experience in pinning, glue alone feels too flimsy. this is also my first model with inboard channels and chainplates. Next step is to insert the stanchions. regards.
