lol Sjors sorry but i have just too much on with the rest of th ebuilds . it will have to wait i did work on cleaning up the workbench here all empty : attached the light magnifying glass in the middle so i can reach most of the workbench if needed storage containers with parts, tools all on the shelves and here is everything back on . in the corner behind the endeavour you can just see th estage coach and the mini golden hind next to it to compare if you look good yo see a plastic mat wiht flowers on it. thats basicaly how much room i had before the big cleanup all the boxes are stacked nicely on the shelves now i just need to keep it that clean so i have plenty of room to work

if you are dedicated you can finish any ship. there are plenty of buildlogs on here for the Syren so should you get stuck there are plenty of people to help you

Do we have a list of kits organized per scale?
Adrieke replied to yvesvidal's topic in Wood ship model kits
hi Yves it would be easy to just search it on the internet. in this case as far i can see that is the only kit for the Mayflower on that scale -
you are right John. i l be glad to have them fitted its been a very long way to get here
-
the planking is mostly done except above the windows. no more excuses now i ll have to make the windows

Dont want to get rid of it as i do like to watch tennis,F1 , V8 its just that right now everythign ios stacked in front of it

after some googling i found this one offered on the website of the maritime museum of San Diego they have 2 versions : advanced and medium difficulty i think this would be a great idea to try it out without it costing much all you need is some photo paper and some card stock
-
hmm you know if i can find some room on the shelves to store the connie and put the tv somewhere else (although i hardly ever watch it these days) i d have enough space to put both the endeavour and the gorch fock on there
-
you know Sjors if you had started the rigging and you get too frustrated you can go back to those things you havent done yet . that would give you a bit of variety. now you have to do it all together. i havent done any real rigging but i think id actualy enjoy it. just tying knots and not having to think soulds goot to me. a while back when painting the canons for the uss connie . i was at for 4 hours straight wihtout realising
-
haha i am sure if i had the room i would
-
have searched for history of this vessel and will post it later. translation of instructions is going well . the hobbystore has received my email with the missing parts and are assessing it and wil contact me when done to let me know whats happening
-
