  1. I've seen it before in my builds…... Maybe they don't use glue but only nails? They are Spanish……strange people
  2. Rudder looks great Kevin ! Very nice job. And thanks for the picture
  3. You mean the Tug Ulises? I know that a lot of kits from OcCre are double planking. Maybe the first ones are single…..
  4. David, I agree with Augie, I think ( hope ) that you are using glue under the planks After the glue is dry it is very easy to remove the nails. A little pin under the nail hat and pull him out. After that use some filler to cover the nail holes. That's what I did. And Augie, I think you are wrong by thinking that it is single planking…It's double or David has change that. That's also possible…….
  5. David, Picture one is upside down I've got pain in my neck…….. Deck looks great! Watch out with the planking. It looks like you have a "wave" between frame 3 and 4 Maybe you gan fill frame 4 a little? So the planking goes smoother. Otherwise you need a lot of filler!
  6. If it stays with him I have no problems with that
  7. Deck looks great Mick, Even when you don't see all of it, You and we know that it is there….. Use some real beeswax ! not the syntatic stuff…….

  20. Hi Mick, Nice oar Looks like real one! Also nice thread and it looks good on the deck. I will wait till the end result of that. When it looks good, maybe I will give that a try at my next build.
  21. Thanks Grant Also thanks Ferit, No, there are no cannon balls on the handrail, only around the gratings.
  22. Small update time with pictures again Dry fit the deck cannons to see how it looks. They need the breach rope , so that's for later. First I have to drill a few ( 40 ) holes for eyebolts and rings behind the cannons. No, I'm not going to rig all the cannons. Just the breach rope... I know, I'm lazy ! Also make the gun port lids on the starboard side and place all the cannons. Then finally I make the stairs against the hull so they can climb on board. Both sides are done with that.
  23. Thanks Wolf Nice Avatar…... They have found earlier this week a dead wolf in the Netherlands. For the first time in 150 years they are back…..( at least that's what they are thinking )
  24. Thanks John, I know what you mean. I have only a Spanish Manuel but also pictures, so I have to do it with that .
