  1. wow, how did i miss this build?
  2. good evening everyone not much to show for the weekends work, still tidying up the front end lines and making sure they are going to the right place, all my points of reference differ, the cathead was rigged and ancors made but for some reason i only have qty 2 and not 4, lol i dont think i can moan about it 7 years down the road i dont quite know where the chain is fitted to on the hull near the flukes (when in the stowed position, so i am still experimenting
  3. lovely work, love the scalemates deck, perhaps they have got the scale right, and just proving how much more the trumpeter hull out out of scale
  4. I waited for this opportunity lol, exactly the photo I needed to work out where the spirit sail yard braces start,
  5. i believe the enquiry is for him to tell you the cost of sending the item to you, then you order
  6. thank you, sorry i have the Fife on hold, but there is a real reason to complete the Victory (watch this space)
  7. good evening everyone im actually quite excited to be back at work on the Victory, and she is presently being worked on most days, (subject to being at work 5 days a week) the Bowsprit work continues, and the spirit yard is now complete (i think) lol i keep finding another rope to be attached https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spritsail
  8. Good afternoon Jerry, everything is good this end, Vic is well and truly back on the build table bowspirt is quite a way into being rigged
  9. received and replied David (yipeeee) kevin got a message
  10. i hate to keep opening up old logs, but as it is a few years down the road, since the last post, is there a definitive way ahead on rigging this kit,
  11. Sid good afternoon, the Dianna will be my next build, after The Vic is completed, LOL i will still be a long way behind you, but will learn from your progress
  12. Lovely work, just been reading through your log, and taking notes towards my next build, but am noticing things that will help on my present Victory disaster
  13. i knew this would come in handy again
  14. Sorry, i have totally missed your build log, i will whip myself with (well something that dont hurt to much) lovely work
  15. lovely work, very tidy and clean lol more than can be said for mine,
  16. Well that is certainly food for thought isn't it thank you Keith and Bob So i have to put this quite simple, the book is ok, based on what he saw, however what he saw wasn't correct, as it may well have changed over time, or never right in the first place
  17. Druxey Good evening thank you for your reply, i am hoping to complete my Victory this year, and realy would like to build a 5th rate, but to do it with some accuracy, 1/48 to 1/72 sort of scale, would prefer a kit to bash rather than scratch
  18. oh dear, and only yesterday i posted a question about a doner kit to build a 5th rate iaw with the lennarth petterson book "rigging period ship models" oh hum back to square one for my next build
  19. WOW What a lovely piece or work, so looking forward to the next update,
