Between Sjors and Andy, you're getting some pretty interesting ideas. Hmm... what about the washer nozzles for the window if you add the wipers? I'll go hide quietly now.

Nice catch on the mizzen mast. I guess the Mirage is bit too big to be a brig?
-
Simple, yet elegant. They look great Remco.

Uh... my Constellation started as an AL kit.. two reasons: 1) only manufacturer with this model. 2) Cheap. Having said that, you get what you pay for. AL has undergone a lot of changes in the several years and whatever quality they had, from what I understand, is now about zilch. Some of their stuff is getting fairly good reviews, Surprise and Victory. Not sure about the other kits. Most of their kits are now put together in southeast Asia and also form the basis for the owner's "museum quality, hand-crafted ships" that a lot of pre-built model sites and e-bay sell. The other problem is that a lot of AL's models are fiction... An aside is that when the owner moved, the designers and some others founded OCcre.

Nicely done, Harvey. Thanks for the great tutorial.
-
Hmmm.. ratlines without masts.. maybe the masts are invisible?
-
Mobbsie, I'm not sure there is a dip.. maybe some more photos? :D Planking looks good. For Sjors... just one...

Nice doors, Robbyn. Isn't dabbing in the "darkside" fun?
-
Amazing craftsmanship, Mark. Looks absolutely perfect from the pictures.
-
Beautiful, Nico. The chrome really brings out her lines.
-
Thanks Dave and Russ.
-
Nice work, Juan. She looks great!
-
Very nicely done, Sjors. Looks great. Too bad you can't ignore the cries from Mirage and work some more on her.
-
Mobbise.... Saturday huh? I'll be patient.

Wow....

Nice work on the hull planking, Robert. What was it you used on the deck? -
You're giving me ideas for my Licorne.... which is a good thing.

I've done the same thing in various places for different reasons. In the midwest it was to inject air into the tail of a nightcrawler when bass fishing.. Here in Oregan, it's been for dispensing glue. I've also used them to dispense loctite, thin machine oil, and other substances (not illegal) in my racing and model aircraft days. Not sure I understand the bit about needing a prescription to by a syringe. I mean.. they have other uses for crying out loud.

Thanks Sinan.

Here's a post from the "Milling my own wood" topic with a link to a great article on harvesting wood: http://modelshipworld.com/index.php?/topic/822-milling-my-own-wood/?p=21296

Hamilton, When you're ready.... Meantime, we'll kickback and watch the grass grow. As you guessed, we're easily distracted.

BINGO!!!!! Grant, that's the one!. Now to put it back into my favorites....
-
Pat, I've got to say this: Check the square before using it. I've had 3 of the darn things and not one of them was "square".
-
Floyd, To quote; "I didin do nuthin!!".... Interesting that it "fixed" itself... hmmm... I know I see things slightly different at work than at home. Same OS and browser, but different monitor and PC. I hear you on the reason for playing with this stuff. I do IT (support work) for a heath insurance company. I'm trying to ignore Win8 and IE10, but probably won't happen. I'll have to face the monsters.
