  2. Here's some thing I came across that might interest some looking for a real small lathe https://www.wdivorce66.com/products/hot-sale-mini-diy-lathe?fbclid=IwAR16a0CVIN
  3. Hi Hoppy....... your build is looking good...... the bow came out with a real nice run..... unfortunately the stern need some work Mike was correct about the bevel on the last bulkhead you didn't have enough. with out redoing the whole planking again you might try cutting back those planks that are cracked on the last bulkhead and try putting in a balsa filler block at the stern and just re-plank those small pieces. you have to get a nice run there. I built this same ship a few years ago. You can ck it out by clicking on mhy finished builds thats on my signature. Good Luck and have fun!!~ Frank

  13. Michael.... that is such a cool technique......I really like the way you run the line up thru the pin hole and secure it the way you show...... really eliminates a lot of frustration trying to secure the line to the belaying pin..... the coils look spot on ,I'll book mark this page for future reference....... again........ GREAT!! work... Wish I had known this method earlier................. Frank
