Kathy Teel Posted December 13, 2020 Share #1 Posted December 13, 2020 Starting Cutty Sark , this will be the first build I keep track of all hours spent on the bench. People always ask me "How long did it take you to build?" Well now I will know. chris watton, EricWilliamMarshall, BobG and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clearway Posted December 14, 2020 Share #3 Posted December 14, 2020 sometimes it can be a shock to see how long a build has actually taken (16 years for my billings cutty sark!!!!!) She is a beautiful ship though. Keith EricWilliamMarshall and Vladimir_Wairoa 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathy Teel Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share #4 Posted December 15, 2020 Absolutely the San Felipe took me 11 years of on and off building. But it would will be interesting to see just how much actual time do I spend just building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithbrad80 Posted December 20, 2020 Share #7 Posted December 20, 2020 The Cutty Sark has been high on my list for awhile now. It will probably be my next build so I’ll pay close attention to your build. Judging from your other work I’m sure it will be a beautiful model ship! Tracking your time sounds like an interesting project, I kind of wish I did it with my Flying Fish.
