  1. Hi Larry, I see that you also find that forrest where they have cannons...... And you have no faith in the glue that you take nuts on the hull ?????? Sjors
  2. I have to agree with Bill Rich. They are always in pairs........ You can see it clearly on the left picture.....sorry...... Sjors
  3. Beautiful planking Rusty ! My compliments that you are doing that without stealers and drop planks !!!!! Sjors
  4. George, On page 3 there are a few pictures missing. If you still have them can you re-post them again ? Thanks Sjors
  5. Wow, You can climb a mountain with that I see it in front of me.....you twisting and turning and then let it go But great job AGAIN Theo !!!!! Sjors
  6. Thanks Mark and Sam, @ Sam, I have a plastic sheet in the kit that I can put behind the windows. It looks if there is some glazing behind it so it worked Sjors
  7. Thanks Frank, Augie and Grant and all who push the like button @ Augie, I think I will put it on at the time I'll be starting the rigging...so long time in the finish box I have take a close look at Mobbsie's case and....I'm happy that I have a lot of room upstairs ! Otherwise I will send it to the White House ! They have plenty of room !!!!!!!! @ Grant, That's something I learn from a few members....just re-do it till you are satisfied Sjors
  8. Rich, Two things.... For the chain ,let them try to follow the line of the shroud. Second, I see that you cut off your lanyard just behind the deadeye. Make the lanyard longer and when you are going true the last eye, turn it a few times around the shroud. If you are now putting strength on the shroud, the lanyard will come out of the eye. Sjors
  9. After 4 day's of trying to get the copperplates right on the rudder , it is done. It was a lot of re-do but that's part of something I never done before. Because I want to make a brick pattern on it and I ended with small pieces. Lot of cutting and saying bad words when it was not right..... I'm not fitting the rudder at this time because I have to figure out how the pintles are coming. So the rudder goes into the complete box till I think that it is time to place it. Sjors
  10. Wow Theo, That's a little tutorial of his own. Or you can say a build of his own. On picture 6 I see that you bend all that wood at once ??? And every thing stay in one piece ? Sjors
  11. Wow Adriaan, That looks great with those (port ) holes in it !! That's gonna be a beauty !!!!!!!! Sjors
  12. Sam , The windows are looking just fine ! Then about the breech rope, The eyebolt for the breech rope on the bulwark has to go a little bit more to the left ( and on the other side to the right...) Then the breech rope goes to that eyebolt without a block but true a eyebolt that's on the carriage And it's touching the deck. So ,when the cannon is fired, it can go a little backwards but not to much. Otherwise you are damaging the bulwark. The way you are doing it now, it has no space to go anywhere...... This is not critic but only help.... Take a look at Augie's build how he touch the eyebolts. Sjors
  13. Pictures on this wonderful thursday How can you make just that tiny thing.....( Dinghy ) Amazing... Watch out when you are on the planking. Are you using matchsticks for that ????? Sjors
  14. Thanks Jason, That's only de blanco sheet where you looking to. There are coming frames in front of it and no curtains... A little light is also nice Sjors

  16. Thanks John and Draggz, @ John, I did 2 things at the time. Now one is finished I 'm only working on this one. Maybe she is finished at the end of the year ???? @ Draggz, Craftmenship ????? I'll do my best, that's all I can do...... But thanks for the good word ! Sjors
  17. Chuck, I was reading your log about the Cheerful and I have seen one Dutch model that you thought it was a fisherman ship from around 1950. I knew there was something wrong about it so I have search the internet. I found this drawing and picture. It's a beurtschip (like a Barge ) Sjors
