Quick to make; simple; it works. What more could you ask of a jig, Russ? John -
Now that's going to look good. Are you working from detailed plans of the engine or from old photos? John
-
That's a very nice looking craft! John

Well, you certainly were on the right track - nice job! John -
Well, the jig works, Russ! John
-
Nice to see another non-string model on the site - I'll be following with interest. Was it usual for tugs in your part of the world to have left handed propellers? John
-
Lovely work again, Remco! John
-
Just catching up with what you're doing, Russ. She's looking good, mate! John
-
It's great to see these details that are really making her come allive, Popeye! John
-
It's good to see that you're putting this log back up, David! John
-
Nico, she just looks more beautiful with each set of photos! John
-
Mobbsie, yes, I see a slight dip there, and there really shouldn't be. Do you want to try evening it out with filler before you get on to the second planking, or does it just look worse in the photos, as is often the case! John

Bruce, Whatever else you do with regard to rigging sequence, leave the braces until last. As they run outside everything else they'll really get in the way. John

Bruce, I've found that leaving the ratlines until later doesn't restrict access in practice as I find I reach most of my belaying points from the opposite side anyway. John

Just catching up with what you're doing - beautiful; absolutely beautiful! John

Beautifully done, Michael! John

Yeah, Tom, the photo looks likes it's made like a simple garden bench. I think you're on the right track. John -
John, I haven't followed his technique, but it's in the back of my mind for a future model. John
-
Well, why not, Michael - you've gone this far! John
-
Oh, was it you Mario? I thought it was rather fun! John
-
Oh, yes, Popeye - looking good, mate! But you'll need more lobsters than that to make that boat pay! John
