Trevor Being a Norwegian I maybe shouldn’t say this, but I am skipping the Norwegian Pram for now. The plan is to finish the Lobster Smack and the Sherbourne. Then I think I will go to the two NRG kits I have here at my desk. Both the rigging and the planking should be useful. After that I think the Philadelphia Gunboat. so many choice and so little time Edited Monday at 07:40 PM by EspenT robert952 and Kenchington 2 Current build: HM Armed Cutter Sherbourne Moscongus Bay Lobster Smack In Queue: Norwegian Sailing Pram, NRG Half Hull Kit, NRG Masting + Rigging Kit Completed: Lowell Grand Banks Dory
PAckerman Posted Monday at 08:00 PM #12 Posted Monday at 08:00 PM Nicely Done. I have a question. I have seen that metal block with all the thread holes in several logs. What in the heck is that? I was looking for a couple and I am completely stumped. Regards robert952 1

Regards It is a machine block, often called a 1-2-3 block after its dimensions in inches. It is heavy and has square edges. Very handy in many occasions. I have a 25-50-75 block since I use metric.
