Sjors

Thanks again...  

@ Bug,

Work is not that bad ....it cost only a lot of hobby time .....

@ Wayne,

The Gnomes want to have a zoo now 

@ Piet,

Why not crow-feet on the Surabaya ?????

You can do it !!!!!!!!

@ Mark,

Thanks !!

@ Greg,

Also thanks and I shall try to answer your question.

When I make the lanyards ( the ropes between the deadeyes ) i tie them down with a single knot.

When all the lanyards are on i just let it go that way for say a day.

Then I un-knot ( right word ?) the knot and put a little tension to each shroud.

When all of them are done I let is go for another day and then I repeat myself.

After 3 or 4 days there is no stretch anymore in the rope and it stays like that.

I finish the lanyard to the shroud and keep them the same hight.

Is this answering your question?

If some else has a better explanation ,please be my guest !!!!!!!!

@ Hennie,

I think that I am in the shadow of your Aggy !!!!!!

The only thing that I can do is my best.

And I know that there are builders who wants it to be "historical " right.

But that's not for me.

I enjoy it and that's for me what counts.

Sjors

That looks indeed very colourful.....

And I know that manual that you have   

Seems a little like Corel.....Le Mirage !

Sjors

Uitstekend gedaan   

Sjors

Thanks Ulises    

I can now speak a little Spanish 

Hello Andy !

How are you today.

Nice to see you !!!!!

Are you still building or only working ?????

All 3 crowfoots are done.

So picture time.

Now I have to do the futtock staves and then I can go to the ratlines       

But that can take a while because of work   

Sjors

Thank you all also for the likes !

@Ulises,

Thanks my friend for the clear explanation.

I hope they understand you better then when I telling something   

@ Piet,

These are not nautical terms but animal terms.

When we are talking about those crows feet I have make the one at the mizzenmast.

A very small update on this sunny day.

Very nice Kevin !!

It's funny to see that each of us has a different way of doing the rigging...

Sjors

Let me see.....

The main stay, preventer stay, for stay and preventer stay are done.

Mice's ( good ? ) are done and also make the snakes......

I don't know if the snakes are right but I'm happy with it so I keep it this way.

Tomorrow another day with another task......

Sjors

We don't want to wait for 2 weeks !

You are retired so come on, get in that car and collect that camera.

Holland is not that big !

Sjors

This is high class scratch!!!!!!

Well done Bug !

Sjors

Just what Sam is saying.....drooling !!!!!!!!!!

Great job so far.

I'll will be waiting for other results.......

Sjors

Hi Terry,

When I'm finished working tomorrow I will take a look ( if I can find you )

I'm curious about the longboat and will follow you on the pickle.....( never hear of it )

Sjors

Hello Telp ( is that your name ? ) 

Thanks for the nice words....

I'm almost   

Why should it take a few years to build such model ?

Some are doing it as the first model.....

But ok, I don't know your skills but I think every one can handle it.

Just take the time and read the manuel and drawing carefully !

( that's something I still have to learn )

Do you have a build log where I can look ???

Sjors

Great work Bug !!!

I have the feeling that I look at the work of Augie !!!!!

Sjors

Thanks   

@ John,

Yeah steaming ,but then out of my ears......

Work is again in the way the coming 4 days !

No building, only driving   

Sjors

Wow,

THAT'S a masterpiece !!!!!!!!

Great work Hennie.

I go back to the plastic builds.......  

Sjors

Bug ,its not a update....that one is almost one year old   

How about it Theo ????

Sjors

Welcome also from me Hennie !!!!

Let me see your masterpiece   

Sjors

Ok ok ......

Mouses , mices , meese ,things that's hanging against the stay's.....whatever ....

I just told Hennie ( the other Dutch builder who is also building a Aggy ) that everyone can read my English and see.........I'm right             Pffffffffff

Thank you very much for the comment and likes !

@ Ulises,

I take the easy way.....and I mean totally easy !!!!!!

My rope server has let me down a few day's ago.

So the mouse is only painted !

And from a distance you don't see it.....so please, look from a distance !!!!!!!  

I know ., it's not right but......I think I'm gonna keep it this way ( or not ? )

And don't wish to much my friend.

The Victory will be waiting for us   

@ Bob,

Thanks.

I'll be waiting for your rigging.

Can you please hurry up ???

@ Hennie,

Also thanks and I will take a look at your build log when I have finished all this ChineesEnglish   

Somebody else gives you an answer what about the pictures......

@ Elijah,

Also thank you !!!!  

@ Edwin,

Thank you,

Greetings back from my Moderator and say hello to your Admiral from both of us 

@ Bill,

Are you using a magnifier ???????

I didn't see it and I'm sitting with my nose above it !

The deadeye turned around when I put the tension on the lanyard.

But I fix it         

At the end of the post you will see a picture with the fix........

@ Moonbug,

Look at the beginning of this post     

@ George,

You have more faith in me then I have in myself.....

That first mouse take me almost 3 hours to do the job !
And then I mean also attach the stay from mizzen to main mast.

Sjors

Shrouds are done on all the masts.

Ofcourse also the deadeyes and lanyards.

I have try to make a mouse and put it on the mizzen stay.

Now I need 4 more mouses.

Who's idea was that ??????????

Sjors

I want to put unlike but it is not there ......    

Sjors

Very nice Ulises.....

And now coppering the hull ????    

Sjors

Hi Hennie,

I still goes slow

Work is in the way again.

At the first page by questions you can take a look how to open a build log and how to put pictures in it. This is the link: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php/topic/53-before-you-post-your-build-log-please-read-this-starting-and-naming-your-build-log/

And have no issue about the English langue.

They can read mine so ......
