I was looking at it this afternoon.

Because i am a big James Bond fan ( i have all the movies ) i know now what i have to ask for Christmas.

Thanks James !!!

Sjors

Whe you finished something what are you doing then?

You keep it in one piece or you broke it down and make somthing else?

Sjors

And i was happy with one box.......

Sjors

I was surprised that you can make such things with lego...

But it is incredible and amazing and beautiful!

I wish i had my lego back.

Ma.....where is my lego 😜

Sjors

Hi Dave,

I think you missed a lot !

There are 2 pages and I have take over the build from Anja ( My wife )

On the 26 of July 2018 I have make the first post. ( post nr 42 )

There is nothing serious with Anja only that she has to much to do with other hobby's and ask me if I want to finish the build.

Sjors

Thanks Mark,

I know that the bow is not the easy thing but overall it looks if she was on the bottom of the sea, pulling up the service and covert with mud.

It really looks ........ugly!

And to dark and to much traces of glue

I’m gonna change it in the future.

How longer i look at it ,how more i hate it what i have done.

This is not what i normal   do..........

Sjors

Paint is on it.

I have to do some touching up but that's for later.

The hull I'm not happy with so maybe there will be more sand paper or an other planking.

For now it's enough for the Señora and I will go on with the Sovereign.

Also give me time to see what I want with Señora.

Sjors

I agree......Nice!

Sjors

Thanks Sherry,

She was finished more then a year ago.

I only post an update because she found a new home.....

But always nice to hear from you.

And how are you?

And with the San Felipe?

Still working on your masterpiece?

Anja is saying Hi to you😀

Sjors

My hat of for you master builder!

Sjors

Great job!

Sjors

It’s a Spanish kit.........😝

Sjors

Ok......

little difference?.?..

Sjors

Ulises,

We are thinking of you and feel the pain with you.

Sjors and the Admiral ......

No problem Frank,

We are just staying here and don’t go anywhere else....

Sjors

He Frank,

Nice to see you!

How are things going???

It is not the dynamic duo......just me!

Anja stopped building!to busy with other stuff.

Great to see you my friend.

Anja is giving you an hug 😀

Sjors

First build?

You’ve gotta be kidding.......

That second hull planking is just great!

I wish i can do that this way😏

deck caulking is also great.

I will follow you further on.

Sjors

It’s not a problem to mail OcCre when you have missing parts, they send it right away.

But i was asking about the belaying pins and all i’ve got back the answer.....we are sending you the missing parts and a day later ,we do not send it because you have the plastic (short) ones.

So i have to remake the pinrails......

I’m happy that i have a lot of spare wood from my Aggy.

And Mr. Pucko.....i see that you are from Sweden.

Only nice people lives there 🙃😝

Sjors

Christian,

i send you an PM

Sjors

Hi Mark,

I was just reading your log and you are doing a great job!

Thanks for showing me how to work 

At some of the first posts you are saying that this is your last kit from OcCre.

I have build a few kits from OcCre but this is sometimes a search for something that is not there.

For example the belaying pins.

I wrote an to mail to OcCre and the only belaying pins that they have are the plastic ones...

So I ask them why they give us on the part list metal ones and extended.

They don't give me an answer on that.

Also one of the wooden sheets is wrong.

It don't mach with the drawings.....

Beware of that !

So for me this is also the last kit from OcCre for us.

I think I will stay with Caldecraft the next time.

Then I see that you are looking for a popcorn machine.

There in the corner there is a nice place.

Sjors

Oh ok,

I tell them to clean it with an air can (if that is the right word .....air can)

And i know that they are keeping a close eye on it.

Thanks Jacek & Peter.

@Jacek,

It’s not that heavy and when you take a good look you will see that she is standing in the middle of 2 book cases.

So the weight goes to 2 sides.

Ans i see also on the left and right that there is place for 2 more😄

@Peter!

You are just saying the right words...

I love to build but when she is standing in our house,only my wife and myself are looking at her.

And that home is also for demented older people.

So maybe this give something extra to them.

Sjors

Hello,

Yep, I'm not Anja.

She is to busy with other hobby's that she stopped building.

She ask me if I want to finish the lady so why not.

I have all ready 2 other builds ,why not 3 ?

Just like Popeye 

So I will continue this one also.

Then a little update.

Just finish de hull planking.

A few other things and I'll be putting Tung oil on her.
