  1. And so when I'm looking I see a naked hull. Few day's later I'm looking again and there are decorations ! And wood worms.....or termites ? Sjors
  2. Time for a update. As I told you before, I receive my false keel. I place all the frames on it and I'm happy Also the first deck is ready . The picture you see the deck without any varnish. Tomorrow I will place a picture with tung oil on it. I will do that tonight so it can dry. The second picture will show you "little" clamps Just for sure that everything stick together...... Sjors
  3. I received my new false keel today OcCre has send the first one to my old address in Schiedam. And the people who live in our house now has send it back to Spain ! I was asking yesterday by E-mail where my false keel was and they tell me that they get it back on Thursday but send it right away to our new address. So I was expecting it on Tuesday but.........it was here today ! Very good and quick service from OcCre ! Thanks OcCre !!!!!!! Sjors
  4. Thank you all ! @ Hennie, Be on time please....otherwise I have to wait for the coffee @ Elijah, Thanks and for the decorations I have hammerite metal paint. You have to kinds of gold paint, the one that looks at new and one with a little grey in it. I used that one. Sjors
  5. I'm just thinking how I have done those crowfeet.... These are different ones then what I have. Maybe a way is, put a rope to the stay direction deck. Enough tension to let it straight. Do the same upwards and then make the feet with enough tension. Good luck. Sjors
  6. I want to put a sign with the first picture.....your money or an other kit Sjors
  7. paint job done.... I think building time 10000 hours and paint time 100000 hours The false canons are in place so she got her teeth. All the other canons still has to go on the decks. Also paint and attach the decorations for the bow part. Sjors
  8. Wow, Really great with the Dolphins ! And what a nice place to show her....... When you are coming next sunday, I will cover my Aggy Sjors
  9. I put my ear back to my head and can hear to much I'm waiting for my new false keel for the Santíssima Trinidad. In the mean while I'll be preparing things for painting. For the SotS of course. So.....see picture. Sjors
  10. @Wayne, Welcome also. You found a nice place ? @ mtdoramike, Thanks Mike ( I call you Mike if you don't mind ) I have soak the keel for 1/2 hour. Then I let it dry for 3 days with weight on it. When it was dry yesterday I make it loose and in 1 hour it was this again. I see that you are living in Florida. With a lot of sunshine ? I'm from the Netherlands and sunshine is a weather thing that we don't see much...... Then a concrete driveway..... The only way that we are having is a highway ! And I can try that But Occre is sending me a new one so I'll will wait for that. But thanks for your help! Sjors
  11. Ken,, Don't worry. When we see the birth of a masterpiece ,we don't drift away .....only drooling at the screen.... Keep on going ! Nice standerd btw ! Sjors
  12. I can do anything Viking.... I'll have to wait for my replacement ! And I just received an E-mail from OcCre "This warped it’s due to the change of temperature. When you place the hull reinforcement, the keel gets straight, but your keel is very warped. We will replace it. In some days you will receive the replacement pieces." So they have really a great service ( what i already know ) So, I'm gonna wait.....and wait.....and wait..... Sjors
