  1. a few seconds ago Good evening everyone, im still here trying to get a few hours work on the build if and when i can, lots of new lines have gone in since my last post but still need to be put under a bit of tension and tied off
  2. depending on the final colour, if white or grey, just use the appropriate primer and leave at that
  3. for rigging depending on what you intend to achieve, you could get away with 0.25. 0.5, and 1.0 mm threads
  4. your Paypal account should be easy enough to sort out with a password reset, providing you know the email account associated with it, but nice to see you are getting back on with the build, i have just had a nice long four day weekend off with all plans to continue the rigging, absolutely nothing got done as visitors arrived (yep for 4 days}
  5. Did you pay through Paypal, thats another protection method to avoid loosing through these scams
  6. I fell for it, oh well worse things did happen at sea
  7. does anyone know how i go about getting some internal plans for this build, i would like to fully open up one side to show internal compartments,
  8. So have we come to the end of the journey? or have i missed so much whilst i have been away
  9. sorry about the admiral. please give all our love, from me and Dobbie
  10. The stairs looks brilliant and happy thanksgiving to you and everyone else who celebrates it, it everyone else happy Thursday
  11. There is a contact page on their website, also they are active on Facebook https://www.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk/cgi-bin/mf000001.pl?ACTION=SHOWFORM&REFPAGE=https%3a%2f%2fwww.cornwallmodelboats.co.uk%2facatalog%2findex.html
  12. i have made quite a bit of progress on the build in the last week, the fore yard is not finished with just a few lines to find homes for and then the fitting is the stun booms these are now fitted, more lines being secured this time to the channel and secured inside the bulkhead although still a lot of long loose ends most of the fitted fitted so far are now secured, i dont want to cut them just yet in case i have a need to remove them and a couple of how she looks tonight
  13. its nice to get back into the build,after doing other things for a while, The HMS Fife consumed quite a lot of my time, but after 7 years the Victory has to be finished, especially after ordering my next build
  14. lovely to see an update Sjors, shame that the kit is not up to a standard that we expect from them, i am back heavily into the rigging to try and get her completed before 2019, hope you are both well
  15. nice work, you will have this completed and onto your next build by Christmas this year
  16. good recovery, hopefully she has now got the correct shape and allow progress with-out any more setbacks
  17. Leech lines, if sails are not set, were the lines just knotted at the block to prevent the line pulling back through
  18. just been catching up with your log my friend, she has certainly moved on since i last looked in, apologies with not keeping up, but since i got my mojo back i am doing my best, right back to the rigging
  19. Thank you for sorting that out for me, looks much tidier
