I looked....I looked.....looked all around

found all this text,  but no ship to be found

a perilous thought,  I thought with a frown

the Mirage is in peril,  the Aggie's in town

 

to build these three ships,  a huge feat to be sure

to show it can be done,  we'll leave it to Sjors

to watch him build cannons, 64 the score

only to pause and wonder, which one were they for

 

we're all taking bets......the numbers they say

on how many times by Sjors,  the box opens in a day

to gaze at the beauty,  the pieces and parts

bright shiny brass,  dead eyes and hearts

 

to celebrate the coming of this wild new build

I'll run to the fridge,  where I keep the beer chilled

and raise one to you,  on your new feat

I'll get off my soapbox....and take my  'saved' seat     :)

 

yes.........I found your build.........I couldn't believe that I missed it.  I know I have been lax in my poetry.......so I thought I'd whip this one up for you.   I have muliple builds.....tis true.........but not like these!   these are big-a** ships!  you didn't fool me for a moment with those pictures.......you don't have a model of the thames........and look at the cannons........they have Mobbsie's signature muzzles :)

     thanks for saving me a seat....I wouldn't miss this for the world.  the admiral tells me that I'm infatuated with two girls......Itaka bow and Kissimyae stern....I had a laugh when she came out with that :)     very nice of Mobbsie to send you that plaque.....going to be a special touch to the stand.   I'm sure that if you do try and fit something together........you'll post some pictures for us to see  ;)

I yam wot I yam!

Morning friends,

 

As I promised, the 1st of January and I will start the Aggy !

 

The tape is now from the box and I make my building board.

After that I cut out all the frames.......

There has to be a little work so they can fit in there slots.

I want to show you how big those frames are so I placed one in front of the Half Moon from Anja.

Let the voyage begin with pictures.

Happy New to you both Wayne and Augie,

 

The first glue is on the Aggy.

I placed the bow piece, keel strips and rudder post.

Everything fits perfect !

As you can see at the stern, there was a piece broken when Mobbsie was checking the box.

He fix it for me and when the hull is closed, you don't see a thing.

If this part is the only part that's gonna be broken, I'm a happy camper  :D  :D

And of course pictures !

Mobbsie broke a piece?  This sound like the dog ate my homework.  But still, great to see her on the ways.

Everyone thanks and A Happy New Year !

 

@ Sam,

 

Thanks for the title but ratlines take a while....I think !

I'm now busy with the frames.

The first 3 are done but Nr 4 is saying....why is it going smoothly ?

I give you some problems :angry:

So ,tomorrow a new attempt !
