A fully Rigged Model Shipways Confederacy.......

[SawdustDave]

Mark....I will indeed. Figured I would get it past the "boiling water" stage before I begin posting the more interesting stuff. To me, this stage is much like watching grass grow. Just placed the last plank on the hull to complete my first planking.....ordered a beautiful piece of Mayan Walnut which I will be using for her skin. Can't wait to take it to my sawmill and begin creating her skin planks. Thanks

Dave,

 

If I understand you, you will be giving a rather rustic look at your Mayflower, as opposed to the new and bright look suggested by Chuck and the Model Shipways kit.

 

I cannot wait to read your Build Log. Please start it when you feel like.

 

Thanks

Yves

Take a look at Llhan Gokcay's Build log.....I just don't like to paint over beautiful wood. And I love his detail....should be a nice challenge.

Please excuse me while I experiment with posting photo's from my iPad.

I still haven't figured out how to add pic's to my personal gallery. Takes us old folks a little while to figure things out.

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,
