  1. Yes, Brian, especially when they were done by the Mermaid's commanding officer! Trove is always worth a look. You'll find reference material there not only from the National Library, but from major libraries all around Australia. John
  2. Popeye, It seems appropriate that you should be a Commodore - after all, you always have a whole squadron of ships under your command! John
  3. Moo, If you'd like to build her historically accurate, there are two illustrations of her by Phillip Parker King available on the National Library's Trove website. I've attached lower resolution copies so you can see what they're like. John
  4. Great! Another project by Mario! I'll just pull up a chair and enjoy the show, mate! John
  5. Great news that your custom bending setup worked, Mark! John
  6. Nice going, Mark! Oh, and the OH&S manager says, "Are you wearing the mask"? John
  7. Augie, You were in hospital for "a few days" and it's nothing serious? Just get well, mate!!! John
  8. A good start to what will no doubt be another beautiful build! I'll be watching with interest. John
  9. Mark, Wear the mask and put up with the fogging - that ebony dust is nasty stuff! John
  10. Nice work on the guns, Clare. A very professional looking amateur effort. John
  11. Thanks, Popeye! We had a great time - now to start planning the next trip! John
  12. Looking good, Mobbsie. As rest for your eyes after the fine work, try gazing at a pint of bitter down at the pub! John
  13. Now that looks a very interesting project, Alexandru! John
  14. Thanks, Pat! It's good to be back home (I think ) John
