I remarked about my speedy pace only derogatorily because it generally means I lack the greater character trait of patience. Sometimes I can’t wait for paint to dry. I do appreciate every fine comment and accolade I receive…….I truly do. I’m hard on myself because I know I could do better, but I’m to lazy to correct it. Im working out the details for making the aft rail and all its complexities. I’ve learned a lot about it’s design in my studies. It’s quite ingenious.

The run of the strakes looks like planking, not copper. Tony Hunt that's a great catch. My bias that they wouldn't put the poor old Clipper out to sea without her precious yellow metal protection was wrong. In fact, this cruel cost cutting measure of not reapplying this crucial protection is what led to a god awful barnacle encrustation, just a few years later. Such unforgivable neglect is what ultimately led to her demise as potential restorers determined she had too much dry rot that she would never make the perilous trip back around Cape Horn to Boston, so she was lost to eternity in a funeral pyre.

A little money spent now can save a lot of expense later..... However, the Group that owned her wanted FAST money now and foresight was not the attribute they wanted to spend money on. So the scrap man won the argument... Fast money won out again...since they determined she was worth more in pieces then as a whole. Another example that...*The LOVE of money is the root of all evil*. In some small way...if we can build the most accurate model of her...we in essence still have her among us. Now if I can convince Mike to let me make a stand for her from that door he has from her cabins....We will have reached the apex of our intended goal...to reconstruct and display her faithfully.

Keep pushing ahead Vlad...you can do it. Just make yourself some small goals...don't look at the big picture...stay small and you then can get more done. Small victories. See...I work on the forecastle and the head first.....then I'll move on to the next small task and then the next small task and so forth. I break construction down into tiny bits....and tackle those bits by themselves. If I didn't....looking at the the build entirely will cause me to either become suicidal or homicidal. 🤪 I'm building this girl to completion....hull...masts....rigging.

V. I think you’ll have more success personally when you tackle projects as small individual projects once you finish each small project the larger project starts to come into view. Plus if nothing else, you feel as if you’re accomplishing these small goals which motivates you to continue to the larger goal. Thanks for the wonderful compliments.
