I know that i, am not around here these day's but i' m still on this planet :-) I had to do some demolition on the stern. I remove the whole backside. I make a big mistake with the decoration and when i try to get it off, i broke a few things. So i have send an e-mail to Deagostini for replacements and they send me that they will send me the parts......free of cost !!! It was my own falt and then this. I wish that some other manifactures are having this service!!!! So no update yet. Sjors

It looks very nice Hennie!!!! Only one question....the distance between the deadeyes, are they not to short?? i know they want 15 mm but that's so tiny for such a big ship. Sjors

Very nice Hennie ! I still have the problem that i need some brackets for the hammock netting. I have to order a new sheet and that cost me about a hundred Euro's. So that still has to wait. But you are clever enough to know what to do with the rigging :-) Sjors

Thanks everyone for your nice comment and the likes ! I have to hurry with the decorations......I wish! We went for gold paint and normally you buy just gold.....clean and that's it ! Not with Anja at your side..... She was coming with a typical gold. It looks if it is on the decoration for ages !!!!!!! But I have to say.....it looks wonderful ! I know, you want to see some pictures but you have to wait for that. I finished the clock chair and the roof of that is also gold painted. When the paint is dry tomorrow and I don't forget it, I wil post a picture Sjors

And then it is time for an update and pictures The snebbe got his blanket The gratings are also on the snebbe. Have make the gap on the middle deck. Filled and painted Make two walls against the middle deck, filled and painted. There is at the moment a lot of blue but don't forget....it's gonna be full with decorations ! Sjors
-
Thanks you all again. I don't know if I going fast , I'm just going...... It goes not that quick anymore because of all the painting of the decoration. And paint needs to dry ( I think ) @ Jason, You have to hurry with that copper or yes, another build @ Popeye, Yep, the deck need some modifications...... @ Frank, I never see a build that all fits perfectly together. So we are playing a little with tools and fillers and we finish the job ! Sjors

We have send Amati an E mail to ask about Chris but still no respons. Sjors

Mark want to see what's under those clamps so here they are Mark. It's the frame and all the rest of the gallery's. I have make a few pictures of that so you can see how it goes step by step ( 3 steps then ) All painted ( both sides ) and ready for the decoration...... But first something else. I have place the front deck and find out that the deck is to small on both sides. The middle deck has the same problem and I know for sure that the stern deck has the same. I'm not the only one because I've seen it by a few other builders of the SotS from deagostini. As you know, problems are there to get solved by us. So I have glue a few pieces of wood between the deck and the hull, use a little filler and painted all of that. Now it looks if there is no gap I will do the same thing with the middle deck. Sjors

I will post some pictures of the stern gallery. Sorry....you don't see them because of the clamps ! It's just like the bow section, everything is a frame. When the glue is dry tomorrow I will show you what the meaning of all that is. Because it's difficult to clamp it ,the only way is to use the BIG one. But no worries, I have them even bigger then that Sjors

@ Sam, I try to find a translation for you but sorry.....nope Maybe one of the Dutch guy's ( or oldtimers ) who are immigrated to the USA can help us with that . No beak but snebbe ! I have take one glass with Glenn Talloch Sam.....cheers ! (Or proost as we are saying it ) Thanks Dave and Popeye and all the people who find the like button ! Sjors

Then a special post for Sam. I have make the frame with the gratings that goes on the snebbe. Also showing you how the bowsprit goes. Sjors
-
Thanks everyone. Also for the likes. @ Sam, I will join you with one whiskey @ Piet, It is not sneb ( snavel is beak )( single ) but snebbe( no translation for that ) So you have to polish your Dutch @ Hennie, When you take a good look you will see that the pictures below the one with the openings there is an little deck ( luizenplecht ) Those opening are for the notches that are on that deck Sjors

Then an update ! I finished painting on the hull. Beware....I'm not a professional painter but I did do my best on it. There must be some touching up but when I'm working on her, I know it will be a few times. So that's for later. Enjoy the pictures ! Sjors
-
It called a snebbe Sam. And there are a frame goes over it with gratings. When that's finished you will see what it does. And stay AWAY from the whiskey !!!!!! Sjors
