tony got a reaction from GrandpaPhil in Scottish Maid and Bounty by tony - RESTORATION
Thank you gentlemen.
No I don't,both the Bounty and the Victory are del prado so its from whenever they where published.
Yes Bob,I believe its called a Senior citizen moment.
I use different size brushes and a hair dryer.
She is now dusted, and I have now started cleaning the old glue off the pieces that have come adrift.

build is based on the premiss that she was a 20 year old merchant ship
The hull has had its base coat applied and the start of ageing.
The rails have been dry fitted
Just a couple of odds and ends

Nigel,
Thanks for dropping by and I'm pleased you enjoyed yourself. I do like to make my build-logs entertaining where possible.
The LoS was purchased on-line and came from over East in New South Wales. At the time, I thought it a good idea to stock up, so I've bought 6 bottles. This will probably last me a life-time ... and, most likely, enough shall remain for me to bequeath some in my will.
So far, it has only been used on the thwart clamps and some small metalworking on the tool-chest. The colour was more of a smoky-black, rather than the nice, matt colour you (and others) get for the cannons. Never fear, I have three bottles of Caseys Brass Black currently in transit.
