  1. Seems to be close to what is called a naval sloop or Bermuda Sloop. I am getting way this would work in real life. Blocks attached to little brass “I bolts” seems wrong! This is worse than model trains!
  2. I think it is just a inaccurate kit. I will post more details later. Thanks, I reached same conclusion or question. How to reach upper mast to secure sail. Also I do not know all the proper terms! More reading in order 😉
  3. Is this close to how a real boat would be rigged? Looks like mainsail would be furled to mast......?.??
  4. LOL! Discussion over before it started! With wife about cost of shoes.
  5. The stern detail is not very good! This is photo of the box kit came in. Seems like a part from some other ship or gaffe!
  6. The red and green planking is dyed veneer from local woodworking store. It is actually too soft and I do not plan on using it again for major work.
  7. Back on hold! Building other kits, ADHD brain. Currently building c.mamoli Portsmouth and other small kits.
  8. Moved to Georgia! Got distracted by real world problems! Finally getting back into this build.
  9. LOL -- Does look totally wrong! It is nicely done! Look at their Consitution it is even more wrong! Hard to understand why when there is so much reference material/
  10. http://www.micromark.com/tweezer-sprue-cutter-despruing-tweezer,8012.html This is a great tool for fine work.
