Piet, Just....wow! That is tiny. I think you might be right..time for the oil. She's looking fantastic.

Mike, Take look a these two links... http://littlemachineshop.com/Info/getting_started.php?Chapter=GS_MiniMill_01.htm&d=0|2|13 and http://littlemachineshop.com/Info/MiniMillUsersGuide.pdf And there's also: http://www.mini-lathe.com/Mini_mill/Main/mini-mill.htm Both sites have a lot of information that, while it doesn't apply specifically the Sherline, is very helpful in getting started.

Good to hear you have the lowering of the mast sorted out.... I'd hate to hear that you had to take a chainsaw to either the workshop or the boat.
-
Nice metal work, Grant.
-
Sherry, What Popeye said. I see there's some holystoning required so it's back to the deck for me.
-
Andy, Your rigging is looking very neat and precise. I'm in awe of your eye for detail.
-
Great chess... er.. Samson posts. And on top of that, you scratch built? Won't be long now and you'll be on the "darkside".

Mobbsie, I'm just cringing here from the sound of that injury. If this were a sports team, I think most of us would have been benched on the injured list lately.
-
Very wonderful, indeed. Not only are the carvings excellent, so is the painting.
-
Nice going, Mario. Planking looks really sharp.
-
Doomed, he's doomed I tell you!!!!!! Or at the very least, things will be very very quiet for awhile.
-
Sweet. That mouse is very effective. Don't sweat the ratlines.
-
Oooo... serious work going on there. And very impressive. We're not going to mention how close you are to doing ratlines.
-
Len, Great looking guns and carriages. I'll bet your happy not to have to all 74 guns.
-
Gunlocks? Capsquares? Incredible. Just incredible.
-
Nice work on the stairs. Those are a bit tricky to make and yours look great.
-
Alexey, It's obviously a laser, but a laser what? Interesting idea.
-
Interesting discussion... I would have thought it was the other way around.. The lower one would be the Great Cabin, used by the Captian when no admiral was on board. The upper would then be used by the Captain when there was an admiral on board. But I could be wrong.
-
Wow... lovely work.
-
A beautiful model and a prize you deserved for it, Garward. This was this years competition? As I recall you won a medal last year also.
-
Lovely work, Revier. It's sad that the fittings in Great Cabin won't be seen after this. But, as Jan said, we know they are there. As for the pumps, did you see this: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/2337-french-elm-tree-pump-question/ ??? It might be too late but it's still interesting.

Rocker, Nice work. Yes to leaving a bit more meat for fairing. Also, unless you're really organized, I found that the best way is to cut and build one frame at a time. I tried the 'cut them all out at once" routine but ended up misplacing bits and pieces. On the blades, order her a gross from Olsen or Sawbird....
-
Qwerty, You never fail to amaze me... I love it.
-
Very nicely done on the guns and breechings, Grant.
