Kevin Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share #151 Posted June 6, 2021 Good evening everyone i think that the hull and fittings is now about 75-80% complete, every time i look at photos i see more to add, also now that im more confident with soldering, im happy to have a go at making bits 12 ships boats make up the compliment on here, these will be made up over the coming months, as much as i hate making them, one of the motor launces was started by me 12 years ago, at present being taken back to the frame the accommodation ladders are now done, just the lifting gear/davits to be made up Eurus, egkb, Ian_Grant and 7 others 10 Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.

Kevin Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share #152 Posted June 9, 2021 Good evening everyone its that stage of the build where i am worried i am going to go out of my depth, i have no decent instructions, i have a rigging plan but no idea what size threads to use no sail plan but 30 odd sails to make and im absolutely loving it i noticed that the build i am following had a lot of changes made during this stage onwards, where things had to be moved/adapted to get the rigging done, i certainly wont avoid that, but i am aware of it hence some items are still removable on the forecastle, to this end i have proceeded with the bowsprit the chain i am using is 1.5 and 2mm jewellery chain, this will be pained later on, in these colours it looks like a cheap toy yes i am making more work for myself but my plan is to proceed with that ever i have in my rigging threads, and see how it goes, then replace with my home made ropes, and tumbled blocks this will keep my interest going and allow me to show my mistakes as i go along all the fittings being used now are now scratched, from 1.5mm brass tube and .4 brass wire, soldered where necessary please feel free to scream at me if you see anything wrong, or better ways of doing things question what comes first, the chains or the stays gjdale, Robp1025, Landlubber Mike and 5 others 8 Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.

yvesvidal Posted July 1, 2021 Share #178 Posted July 1, 2021 This is looking fantastic Kevin. Your models will be safe and well protected from the dust.

Kevin Posted July 5, 2021 Author Share #180 Posted July 5, 2021 (edited) good evening everyone did a bit more to the display area, including rearraigning the ring main and ,moving eclectic sockets, i just want to put a extension lead in there to power the St Nectan and any other build that might have lights fitted, and fit the windows back onto the build today, and the foremast i presume the futtock shrouds are the right name for this type of vessel the top platform on all masts has spreaders fitted, another item not mentioned in the kit, aft of the platform is what i presume to be another line guide, i have no measurements for any of this, just trying to follow another build, but if wrong, i will do again futtock shrouds Edited July 5, 2021 by Kevin egkb, EricWilliamMarshall, coxswain and 5 others 8 Quote Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on All the best Kevin SAY NO TO PIRACY.
