  1. Hi Robbyn, Thanks for the overview picture. It looks great. Don't change it. You say it your self….it's a learning project. Be proud of what you have done and be satisfied with it ! When i look at my Mirage …I know things can be better. But that's for the next one. We do our best and that is all we can do. You have done the upper shroud and I still have to do it. I hope I can do the same as you did with it.
  2. Hi Mobbsie, Great progress ! It looks great ! I hope for you that you are receiving your deadeyes today….. I'm glad that you not seeing it when my Aggie was at your house Otherwise I have triangular deadeyes and you don't ……. I think I wait with the build till you are finished. Then i have a great example how to do it !
  3. Andy, You have to call your company that you can not go for a while……. We want updates and pictures of your Peggy !
  4. Thanks Mick, Ferit, Popeye and Kester. @ Mick, I'm still at the ratlines…. Tomorrow the first side of the foremast is ready and then I can go to the other side…. @ Ferit, When you see that little gap I know that you placed attention to the build. For me it's a great compliment! THANKS !!!!!! @ Popeye, When I go working on the other side I shall take care of it , It should be the first thing that I do ! Cosy isn't it…together on the shrouds @ Kester, Anja is always singing for me……or was it the radio? I don't know...
  5. @ Ferit, I know that there is a gap…... The rope came loose and I don't want to turn the ship the whole time. When I'm doing that side then there is a ratline coming ! But thanks for your observation…. Augie is right, next time pictures with candle light @ Kester, Thanks. When there is a book coming, I let you know. Or just ask your wife to sing a lullaby …... @ Aldo, Thank you very much ! @ Wayne, What or which clothes…... I only have my uniform….. @ Jim, believe me or not, but those ratline are there for real. Or the pain in my back is telling something different @ Sam, Welcome back then ! And thank you. You have to ask Augie what that is or Andy….. If you ask it I can read there answer
  6. I have done a little bit more. The shrouds, deadeyes and lanyards are attach to the fore mast. Now I can go back to the ratlines again…. And no, I have not count them
  7. That's a possibility but I don't have sails in the kit. And I'm not that good with a sewing machine……or with thread and needle…...
  8. Morning Ferit, I found it easier to answer everyone in one post then everyone separately. I think when I do everyone separate , they can missed an answer. And I don't like to quote it because it's to crowd on the page. This reads much easier. Thanks for your kind words about the Mirage. She has no sails and I don't want to place them. When i place the sails, a lot of the rigging will be lost. And that's a shame for all the work I have done.
  9. Wow Popeye, There are a lot of pictures ! Rigging looks great ! And my deadeyes on the Mirage are also not at the same hight…... We do our best on it but sometimes……. When do you think you gonna make the ratlines?
  10. @ Robert, Thank you @ Sherry, Thanks also ! I know that there is a log here…. I'll do my best to keep it this way and not a mirage @ Frank, When this build comes to an end, I can make a book of it @ Robbyn, Thank you also. How is your ratlines going?
  11. great work Andy, To bad that you have to go again. At this way the Pegasus is never finished…..and the Confed stay into the box
  12. Adriaan, Almost there and then time for Corch fork ?????????????????? I keep my word, now you have to do yours…. I'm at the ratlines and almost finished and you are gonna start the coach Fork…... Build looks great !
  13. Wow Popeye, You always put a smile on my face ! Thanks for the wonderful poet !!!!!!!
  14. Hello all, There we go again answering every one @ Jim, Thank you and yes, every time when there is a little progress, Aggy is coming @ Aldo, Thanks, but don't look that closely @ Patrick, I wish she had all the rigging lines….. Everything is now gonna sit in the way. Get a few gun port lids from the hull Fix them again but…..Yep that ! @ Augie, That's on a closet, I want to see if there is space enough for her so she has a place to stay and a clean table…... @ Keith, Thanks, I looks if it take ages before the stuff is arriving, but it takes only 3 days…... Just take your time with catching up all those progress in the builds. Not to slow otherwise you don't come there ! @ Wayne, Thanks again. But what I'm saying to Aldo….don't look to close !!!!! @ Popeye, She's already busy ! Or my hands are to big !
  15. Thanks Joe, The parts that I was waiting for, just arrived. So I can go back to the shrouds and ratlines
