  1. Thanks Piet Here are the promises pictures with the tung oil. In the mean while I've bin busy with some other stuff. I have place the upper stern part. Easy to glue Next thing are the top bow batten and bottom bow batten. I hope it will work because I have to bend again. But we shall see. Sjors
  2. Your planking is just awesome E.J. I have to remember that for the next time. Sjors
  3. Dangerous those "whisker poles" Rich. It seems to me that you hit those thing all the time. For the rest it looks excellent. Sjors
  4. Thanks Martyn and Rich, @ Martyn, I can take a look right now because she has her Tung oil. But i don't tell you about it, i don't want to spoiled the surprise 😀 Sjors
  5. Thank you all. I hope next week a update with a hull that's in the Tung oil. Sjors
  6. Because we are gonna have a new computer this evening a quick update. The hull is closed. It was not an easy job and I must say that it is not the best hull planking. Only because it's single planking ! But I'm satisfied and I will keep it this way. For now pictures of the planking without the tung oil. Later this week the pictures with the tung oil. Sjors
  7. Hi Rich, Everything is ok but very busy with other things..... Re- decorating the house and work of course..... The hull of the ST is almostclosed. After that a lot of sanding and a few minor things i will post an update. But i don't give youa timeframe 🙂 Say hello to Judy from us and Anja is saying Hi to you in the back ground 👋 Sjors
  8. I will wait for the result before i give a comment... But I agree with Anthony. On the other hand, it looks great. Sjors
  9. Wow, What Michael is saying.....excellent planking! Almost a shame to put a little blue on her... Give us a indication where you want that blue. When we can see it ,we can give you an answer 🤣 Sjors
  10. Hi Elijah, A little progress..... Yes ,i did. It was for me easier to do it this way. I can turn her upside down or backwarts or forward or putting her on her head or bottom without damaging the hull. Only the frames a little 🙂 And it give me a nice different look at the two kinds of wood that I'm using. Sjors
  11. Thanks Martyn and Popeye, @Martyn, It is not so stunning as it looks at the moment. I just love the sanding paper and sandingmachine...... I try to bend the wood but 3 planks will not bend at all an the next one will. So i'm happy that i have enough wood to break...... @Popeye, You are staying to long away to see if there is a lot of progress 😆😆😄 By the time you will take a look again, she will be finished 🙃😁😆😀☺️😃 Sjors
  12. Looking great Hennie. But i have a question... Are you follow the manuel when you are building? I see decorations, a few walls on the deck but also that you need to plank the hull further down. It looks to me that you are damaging all above when you turn the ship upside down to plank the bottom. Maybe I'll be wrong and is this the way it should be. Sjors
  13. Thanks for watching my friends. And also thanks for hitting the cup on the bottem 🙂 @Sam, I was not gone, only busy...... Sjors
  14. The rubbing strakes are on........ At the bow not a problem but at the stern, don't talk me about it. But it is done. I know that I have to do some modification on that but that wil be done when i finished the hull planking. I also put the frames and gunport lids. Now I can put het at every side that I want and has no fear to damage something. Only the starboard side is done and now I will go to the port side. After that planking again. Sjors
  15. Wow Hans..... I was following you very in silence at the dutch forum but now I can say something...... Wow again it should be. I wil follow this with a lot of interest. And I'm happy that you wil show us your skills on MSW. Now not only the Dutch people can see what masterpiece this is, but the whole world ! Sjors
