  1. latest reply from the hobbystore :

     

    Hi,

    Unfortunately it can take some time for spare parts to arrive. If you would be able to please forward through your original email with the parts you are missing to ****@**********.com, we will resend it to OcCre and ask for an update as to where exactly these items are.

    I apologise for any inconveniences caused.

    Thank you in advance for assistance in this matter.

    Kind Regards,
     

  2. I will be contacting OcCre this week as I don't seem to get anywhere with the hobbystore  for the missing parts on my Gorch Fock

     

    I have finally finished railings and triangles on the second deck (except the 2 railings near the back smoke stacks that is)

    also touched up some with paint will check tomorrow to make sure I haven't missed anything

    here a view of the main part of the wiring  the 3 unattached wires are for the upper lights. still not sure on how I will hook them up but got some ideas that I will have to try out

    overall a very rewarding day :)

     

     

     

  3. Well Randy I am one of those three or four people.

     

    The ship looks fine and your rework of the rigging looks like a great improvement. I am wondering why a company like AL does not get the message and supply better rope or at least supply no rope and let the builder supply their own, they would either have a better reputation for their kits and they could also be less expensive. plus the rope would not have to be thrown away.

    Michael that could lead to them fixing up their instructions also so that they actualy match the parts and that could lead to them having really great kits at low prices. it just wouldnt be AL anymore

  4. thanks Robbyn  a few more of those and i can take a big step (lights on ) :)

     

    MIck sorry to hear you ran into some trouble. i have heard this happen before where you have to turn the model upside down and you do it the wrong way (i think i even saw Danny do that on his HMS vulture). its anoying but everythign is fixable : loosen a bit of glue or order/scratch build a new part and its fixed :)

     

    Thanks for the good advice Edwin and Randy but i wouldnt be able to relax knowing i havent finished her yet.
