HMS Agamemnon by Sjors - FINISHED - Caldercraft/Jotika - 1:64

[Sjors]

You don't miss a thing yet Sherry,

 

I will start at her when the Le Mirage is finished.

 

[Sjors]

Hi Mobbsie,

 

Look what the postman is bringing me today

A postcard from England with a lovely surprise in it !

THANKS my friend !

 

[augie]

Wow ---- you've got a great friend!

 

Oh ---- now you need to BUILD her   :D    

 

No pressure

[Sjors]

Yes I have Augie,

 

Isn't it amazing?

And yes, I'm gonna build her…..

But first some ratlines on another one 

Have done 10 more and I have to do something else otherwise I don't see them anymore...

And NO PRESSURE !!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Sjors,

 

Just caught up with your Agamemnon log, better late an never eh? Thanks for sharing the pics of the box contents, she's a mouth watering treat

[Sjors]

Hi Aldo,

 

Every time when I look into the box there is water going some where

And not because it is raining !

 

[gjdale]

Okay, made it! Lucky I reserved a front row centre seat for this one!

[Sjors]

Hi Grant,

 

Welcome on board, glad you made it.

 

[Mecheleir]

 

I'll sit on the balcony, it seems that the entire ground floor of the theater is already sold out ...

 

Cheers Sjors ...

[Adrieke]

gets a seat at the back and wait for the clown to perform

[popeye the sailor]

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 

[Sjors]

Wow Popeye,

 

You always put a smile on my face !

Thanks for the wonderful poet !!!!!!!

 

[texxn5]

Well, with much-a-do I found the build log....thanks for reserving me a front row seat Sjors.

[Sjors]

John,

 

Welcome on board.

 

[Anja]

Dear Sjors,

 

It is January 1st. Time to start your Aggie.

 

Anja

[Sjors]

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.

 

[gjdale]

Great to see this one finally underway Sjors. I'm sure it will be an enjoyable build for you, especially with your little "upgrade" kit

[PMG]

Hello Sjors,

I feel a great log is beginning today!

Greetings,

Pierre

[Sjors]

Thanks Grant and Pierre,

 

@ Grant,

 

With the upgrade that I've got from you, it gonna be a beauty !

 

Happy New year to you !

 

@ Pierre,

 

Thanks also.

Enjoy your Holliday in the south of France.

 

Happy new year to you also !

 

[trippwj]

Ahhhhh...the sweet smell of a newly opened kit!

 

Dang that is one big beastie!!!!

 

Happy New Year, my friend!!!

[augie]

Let the long awaited voyage begin !

 

Tell Anja she's going to need a bigger boat.

[Sjors]

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   

And of course pictures !

 

[Beef Wellington]

Nice start Sjors, as you know, I'll be following closely now you're underway.

[mobbsie]

At last this log is seeing a ship build.

 

Enjoy the journey my friend, I'm pulling up a chair, you can supply the popcorn.

 

So far so good. :)

 

A very Happy New Year to both yourself and Anja.

 

Be Good

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

[riverboat]

Wow Sjors! She is going to be a big girl! Looking good. How come there are no ratlines yet O-Mighty-King-O-the-Ratlines?

Sam

[Sjors]

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

So ,tomorrow a new attempt !

 

[popeye the sailor]

good to see your back on line with this bad girl........I'm sure you'll have a wonderful journey

[rafine]

Great to see you on your way with this one. A nice way to start the New Year.
