This will be the right Book to present this ship when finished 

I'm not sure I understand.  Will you be giving the ship the book?  or using the picture in your presentation case?

 

Beautiful workmanship.  Sehr Schön!

Its for the Stand.

Yes, the mounts are too high. But that's because I planked the deck thicker than Occre intended.
I think simply wedging underneath would be the wrong way to go. There is still room for manoeuvre at the bulge for the gun, so it will be a smooth mount instead of a curved one. Stupid, because I've already spent days preparing and ageing it. But that's the way it is. I also didn't want my current intestinal upset and have to live with it.🤣

Hello lovelies,
I would like to explain the stand in more detail.
It's made of soapstone, which I found about thirty years ago at a rubble dump.
In our wild years it was used for chopping various powders to party the night away. Then it was used as an ornament on one or two cupboard shelves and now fulfils a very useful purpose.
I had to drill two three-millimetre holes and fill them with walnut dowels to install a nameplate holder. Small problem, unfortunately I measured the original pins of the holder and didn't realise that the actual hole in the holder is 4mm. Not dramatic, the ship is not yet fixed, the holder is temporarily lined with adhesive tape.
I'll have to look into getting a 4mm brass tube in the next few days, which I can then use to level out the discrepancy.
Have a good Sunday

So, ihr Lieben,
das Boot ist nun kampf- und wassertauglich. Jetzt gilt es, es segeltauglich zu machen.
Auf die Geschütztakelage werde ich wohl verzichten müssen.

Als die Schanzen angebracht waren, dachte ich, ich sollte die Löcher für die Ösen bohren, bevor ich den nächsten Schritt machte. Nach dem nächsten Schritt dachte ich, oh, ich sollte die Löcher bohren. Nun, anscheinend habe ich das oft gesagt, denn als ich die Kanonen auftakeln wollte,
hörte ich mich denken: ****, da war was mit Löchern.
Deshalb machen wir Fehler, damit es beim nächsten Mal nicht wieder passiert.
Na dann, ich muss Masten schleifen, tschüss
