[NenadM]

Hi Nenad!

 

I really do like your final choice in colouring and your Cutty Sark sure looks great in your latest photos!   I hope you don't get a sore wrist from having to turn them 1000 times each though

 

Best wishes to Hothead and I hope he is feeling better soon

 

No, Bindy, only get attack of boredom from time to time. He is OK now, and my daily schedule is blown up. Thx for interesting

Thx Geoff

Not so precise it can be done, but I think that after sanding, final paint and weathering it will be OK

Your doing a fine job on your deck planking to me the rough part is always the scraping and smoothing.  What a mess.

David,

 

there are months behind me, when I was drowned in rough works, mostly my fault, and you have not idea how happy am I with this fine works and little pieces

 

Of course, there will be more scraping and smothing, and every single veneer slice I made for decking is hand cutted and light sanded, and then "caulked" on longitudinal edge before glueing, but that is NOTHING in comparation with ENDLESS hull scraping and smothing I was passing through, usually followed with surgery works on hull and again hull works followed with surgery ......

 

Who have nothing in head, have in hands 

 

Bob

 

Go on !!!

Spice flows in regular way

That's beginning to look really great Nenad.  I can't wait till the final deck is done, all scraped and smoothed out and weathered.  But i have patience - - - a little 

 

Cheers,

[NenadM]

Rainy and gloomy morning

 

So do I

 

Go to work, or stay at home

 

That is the question

 

[NenadM]

Despite the rain I am in the office 

 

Business crisis continues, and I'm more on MSW than on the cases ...

 

About decking - next step

 

I figured out that last plank in line near waterways is little wider than others, and there are some real tricky details to do

 

I am not sure I am able do that, even it is great detail I have seen in other logs

 

 

Loot of time to think about until evening

I believe in you Nenad!  From what you have achieved so far, I have no doubt you can master this difficult plank line 

[NenadM]

Bindy, you give me great motivation injection ...

 

 

 

Or, to stay close to movie "Dune" and "the spice flow" thing

Go for it Nenad. I have faith in your tenacity.

Bindy and David ...

Do you feel quilty ?

 

You lead me to the evil

Edited March 27, 2014 by Nenad M

[Bindy]

Yes! I was right and you could do it. That looks great!!

 

Remember Nenad that You must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. You will face your fear. You will permit it to pass over you and through you. And when your fear is gone You will turn and face fear's path, and only you (and your deck) will remain.

 

(I really need to watch this movie haha)

 ...And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

 

I recognized quote on first two words ...

 

Have you read Herbert, Bindy ? Books are much better than movie

Edited March 24, 2014 by Nenad M

[mspringer]

Nenad, I agree with you on the books....the movies/mini series' leave too much out and just don't have the "feel" that the books do.  I wish I could read them again for the first time.

 

Mark

[mtaylor]

Hmmm.... the Force is strong with young Bindy. I think she will be coming to the Darkside, soon.

 

Wrong movie, I know but your decking is wonderful, Nenad. 

[rfolsom]

Nenad;  Decking is looking great!  Keep up the good work with the nibbing in the nibbing strake...

That wider plank next to the waterway is called the "margin plank". You seem to be doing well at it as well. Looking forward to seeing your progress. It's an awesome project you've got going there Nenad.

[NenadM]

Thank you friends for likes and nice comments

 

If I do not mess in further works ( ha ha) , to me also it seems that She will look nice when finished, which is pleasant surprise taking into account where I was

 

(of course, if ignored irregular lines of decks and mentioned earlier BIG mistake that no one has discovered ... yet ...)

Edited March 27, 2014 by Nenad M

[rfolsom]

Yes, Sailor, Nibbing in the Margin plank; I thought my terminology sounded incorrect ..

[NenadM]

Bob

 

what nibbing means ? Google translate dont recognize it to Serbian

Edited March 27, 2014 by Nenad M

[rfolsom]

Nenad, nibbing is what you've accomplished so well as seen in your post #841.  Narrowing the deck planks and cutting and fitting them into the margin plank.

 

~Bob

[dgbot]

Nibbing has always been a week poit with me keep up the good work
