Sjors Posted February 7, 2015 Author #964 Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) Upper gun deck is planked ! A strange thing but I have white parts in the wood. I have try to remove it by sanding and then 2 layers of tung oil on it but it don't work. So I let it this way. When all the fiddly stuff ( gratings , ladders , steering wheel and betings and more of that funny stuff ) are in place I think you don't see it anymore. Otherwise remember that in de early century's also the wood was not the same ( I don't know who told me that but I like it ) Between the planking I have make the false keel and frames of the 32 Ft Pinnace..... Mobbsie told me that those Pinnace 's are kits of them own. So for the price of one kit , you have 5 kits ( 4 Pinnace's ) Enough talking, time for pictures !

GLakie Posted February 7, 2015 #965 Posted February 7, 2015 Nice job Sjors! I agree. Once the deck furniture is all in place, those slight changes in color on the deck won't be noticeable.

Jan B Posted February 8, 2015 #974 Posted February 8, 2015 Hello Sjors, The white parts appeares maybe because some glue rest. When you put oil on it you start seeing it. But with the white parts it looks just good. Very nice to look at your ship. Gr. Jan GLakie and Sjors 2

I have made the gratings, stairs, railings, timber heads, belfry and a few more of that little stuff. I think it will come clear when you see the pictures. I know that you will see dust but I have no time to clean If I clean it, 10 seconds later you will see dust again...... Enough talking, time for pictures !
