Good idea with the felt pad though.....keeps the pressure from getting out of control? Really interested in seeing a before/after. Good luck Mark! -

Can't help on rigging......spiders all 'tied up'. Check with you-know-who and his gnomes.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANJA. And many happy returns! Now, where are the pictures of your presents from we-know-who?

Seems like I owe another 'thanks'......this time to Mark!

Sitting on edge of chair in anticipation

She's looking good. Glad you installed those braces in the transom ---- that really is a bit vulnerable at this point. Truing up the gunports and sweep ports with a file or sandpaper jig is something we probably all did. Pay close attention now as once you start planking any minor asymetry becomes magnified and it gets harder to correct. Don't look too closely at my build or you will discover how I know this

A bit off topic but congratulations on your longtime service to your country.

Welcome aboard. Nice looking project.

Glad you're feeling better! Jig looks good. Thank you for stimulating the economy with ME. I've got a similar order coming out here --- I ran out of blocks.

Are you going to have Mary Ford sitting in it?

Nice cathead and sheaves Wayne. I had a tough enough time at 1:64 !

I can't speak for Mamoli kits but, given the choices, I'd go for the Golden Hind. Particularly since your goal is the Wasa, she will give you the most translatable experience.

Not to mention your new avatar. Very unusual rendering of a submarine. I like it.

Very nice. The question is.....who's building this thing ---- Kevin or Wilbur?

Geez Popeye........she's spectacular

I am fortunate in that glues and resins don't seem to have an effect. But certain wood dust, particularly spruce and pine really get to me. I see Buck mentioned this possibility. Having worked in, and supervised, chemistry laboratories for many years I can tell you that you should always know what you are working with and the possible effects to yourself and others in the area.

Wow--- that's a lot of progress.....and thinking.....for one day. I really feel badly about that transom piece. Is there any way to contact the manufacturer for a new one? You made a good decision on making up that cannon and mock deck for establishing the muzzle height and other dimensions. Good work!

Aint wives great? Mine is also a weaver and the darned alpacas keep chewing on my rigging

Make believe you didn't read this: I think an all wood finish is fantastic. I think my Syren is coming along fairly well but sometimes she reminds me of my uncle's 1957 Buick.

As Mark stated, hopefully it's just an allergy and will pass. A lot of folks are sensitive. I know they make an 'odorless' version but I'm not sure if it makes any difference if you have a sensitivity.
