  1. Nice to see some progress Augie! You have the nerve to use a machine for the framing? Are you not afraid that you remove to much? If possible I keep mine far away
  2. Hi Kevin, Nice job on the bow. And a great paint job ! And you can work out with that bowsprit. I know you can !
  3. Very nice paint job Mick. Maybe the blue is a little to dark…but that is maybe the course of the picture. If you like it, keep it this way.
  4. Ferit, Your answering way look much better ! And don't let you be intimidated by my rang…... I'm just the person as I always was…nothing more or less. I'm happy to read that you don't stop after the Berlin.
  5. Hi Adam, There are a lot of bits going in the front…. Very nice job ! That's gonna be a beauty !
  6. Morning Adriaan, Handy jig for the sanding Deck planking looks good but then of course, you have experience wit that
  7. Hi Rich, Welcome home from me also. Those fish we don't have them in Holland…. And they are big ! Enjoy your party and then back to the workshop !
  8. Ferit, As a Rear Admiral I ORDER you to build an other vessel after the Berlin !!!!!!!!! Beside that I can give orders, I need someone who let me know where are ratlines missing…... So, After Berlin, you go to the hobby store, Internet, MSW forum to see what is gonna be your next build !
  9. Hi Ferit, First thing I do tomorrow morning is tying another ratline on the main mast at the top so they compere with each other…….. And you are right, I have no candles yet in the house….excuse me please ! And thanks for you confidence in me I'll still be doing my best !
  10. So here it is. My 3000 post ! I have to be honest, Mark has already more then 3000……. All the credits goes to him ! But this is not only a post for the 3000. The ratlines of the lower part of the masts are finished. Tomorrow I can start with making the deadeyes and shrouds for the next part of the masts. So more ratlines to come
  11. Thanks Robbyn and Sam, @ Robbyn, I'm far away from the finish line. I have to do the shroud and ratlines on the middle masts and on the main mast the 3 th level. Then the bowsprit has shrouds and ratlines. Then I have to make the spars and then all the running rigging……. So it still takes a few months…..
  12. No problem Sam, I just finished the ratlines of the lower masts so they deserve a little bit time off. When you are ready, you send them back?
  13. Thanks Adriaan that you start with her I will take a seat next to randy and we will follow you closely ! Good luck and much joy with the build. The beginning is good….
  14. Hi Adriaan, maybe a silly question…but why a magnet ????? Demolition is never good but if needed, you have to do it ! I'm gonna take a look at the Corch Fork
  15. And there we go again Thank you all for the nice comment ! @ Mick, That bowsprit thing is also new for me. I even have to place shrouds and ratlines on it….. But that's for the end ! I have take a look at you Will Everard and the popcorn machine is in place. @ Lawrence, Thanks Only foremast ratlines and then up... Yippie, more ratlines ! @ Randy, Also thanks ! @ Aldo, Thanks again I'm glad that you like the " fix " I hope that I can take the foremast a little up... If not….don't look at it in the front then @ Popeye, You have also a good eye. You are using that magnifier thing ? Yes, the gammoning is also in place. Mobbsie told me that I have to do it first before I put the forestay on. Otherwise the bowsprit is flying around….. @ Augie, Don't talk about that bowsprit please….. I still don't know how to put the lower deadeyes on to it…. But that's for later. @ John, No rats allowed in the hobby room but I don't use spiders. Augie is keeping them for him self. I use rigging gnomes…... @ Patrick, Thank you ver much
  16. Hi Mick, Sorry for the delay…... Another one to follow ! I shall place the popcorn machine and Wayne has already take care of the beverage. Billing Boats have always plastic in his kits. I'm glad that you are gonna change that ! The start is good so, I take my seat and will see what's next.
  17. You are getting old Popeye when you need that But, I understand why you bought it. Mobbsie wants me also to get it
  18. Ratlines port side foremast done…. Now only the starboard side to do The last picture you see the Le Mirage, Smit Rotterdam ( tug boat ) and the Spirit of Mississippi ( paddle steamer ) I have also make the gammoning and the fore stay. I know that the foremast is now ( I think ) a little bit to far to the back. I hope I can change that otherwise I let it this way. PICTURES!!!!!! And Ferit? I have fix the gap
  19. Hi Ferit, Great work, I see that you don't have chainplates for the deadeyes???? Never see that before Nice white rope that you are using. I have checkt all your ratlines and I don't see a gap
