  2. Hi Sam, I have all the confidence in you that you can do the same job ! When you figure out how those clive hitch works, it is easy. And maybe you like it also

  5. Hi Mobbsie, Look what the postman is bringing me today A postcard from England with a lovely surprise in it ! THANKS my friend !
  6. That looks good ! I use yacht varnish and that makes it darker. When you have do the whole deck, maybe I'm gonna use that for my Aggy when I'm at that stage ( In a couple of years…. ) It's Nelsons favourite ship so I have to use that Nelson varnish !
  7. Wow Sherry, You have more talent then you thought ! That's a beautiful piece of art ! And you did that all with only a scalpel??????? Amazing…...

  10. That looks great Rich!!!!! And when you varnish the deck planks, it doesn't matter that you don't see much of it, but we know that it is there !!!! Keep on going like this and I enjoy
  11. That jig looks good ! @ Chuck, I can not follow you what about that edge-wise thing…. I try to understand it but…..I'm grey …... Augie is talking about a praticum? Is that here on the site? Or shall I wait till there is a picture from it.
  12. Sorry Robbyn, I'll missed your post And you are right. A few ratlines makes a big difference ! It makes the picture a little bit more complete. @ Frank, I try to make you speeding up….. I want that Supply seeing finished ! But thanks
  13. Wow Andy, I can learn a lot from you ! That just looks amazing ! I'm curious to see how you handle the ratlines !
  14. Thanks John, I'll be doing my best. I have change the lanyards from the port side again so tomorrow it is ratline time again .
  15. Hi Lawrence, Welcome to the world of Le Mirage, We had really a great time in England. And the museum was the top. We are feeling like kids in a candy store ! So much models of all kind of ships. To bad that we can not see them all. But that's almost impossible because there are in big sliding lockers. I think we need a month to see all those ships…. Thanks for the nice words on the ratlines. I have not counting them yet. Still a few to go ! @ Popeye, Not one but three to go on the lower part. The foremast want also ratlines. But I still have to order chains and deadeyes. I hope I can do that at the end of the month. When the port side have there ratlines I'm gonna make the futtock staves and then up….. Another challenge. @ Thanks Augie, Are you counting those ratlines for me? Or have I to do it myself…..
  16. Augie want some pictures, so here they are... Ratlines mizzen mast starboard side are done. This afternoon I can go to the other side….
