Andrewiscookin Posted December 8, 2024 #1 Posted December 8, 2024 This is my first build and I have pretty much got the hang of things so far with the decent instructions I’m a couple weeks in and am waiting on some paint and stain to arrive before I move on. More painting and than rigging and making the sails. It’s been some learning by reading and some guessing I am excited to get this one finished and start my next build.

Andrewiscookin Posted December 15, 2024 Author #2 Posted December 15, 2024 Done with painting and almost all the wood is attached then onto the sails and rigging Knocklouder, SiriusVoyager, Bryan Woods and 2 others 5
Andrewiscookin Posted December 22, 2024 Author #3 Posted December 22, 2024 Hardware and blocks are done I believe all I really have left is to make the sails and rig it all up which I have never done. It may not be a super polished model or quite perfect but I think I have done ok for my first time. druxey, Bryan Woods, SiriusVoyager and 5 others 8
Andrewiscookin Posted January 18 Author #4 Posted January 18 I’ve been avoiding doing the sails long enough and got the main done today and should be able to finish up tomorrow leaving only a different stand than what the kit came with. So for my first time doing sails it could be a lot cleaner and I may remake them eventually but I’m liking it and looking forward to start my next project. I did take a break and build their dory kit but didn’t take pictures along the way vossiewulf, robert952, Scott Crouse and 3 others 6
