I’m sure some of you folks have noticed my website is up and active except for the store, fear not I do have kits and chapters in stock for both Portland and Winchelsea as well as the capstans. I’m just working out some last minute bugs with the shipping function at checkout. I will have it going soon, when I do I will add all the inventory. I will post an update with things get moving. 

 

I’m also nearing completion of chapter 3 for Portland and will begin producing kits shortly after so stay tuned!

Your fun is just beginning....

 

 

I made sheets of wood all day yesterday. My driveway looks like an AYC slaughterhouse. Few more cups of coffee and off to slaughter some boxwood.

Is it possible to order a kit without the 3d printed parts? 

They are already pre boxed and ready to

go! You could build without them I suppose. They are critical parts so you’d have to print them yourself.

I figured out what my temporary distraction from my Winchelsea build will be.  Wonder how this capstan will look on my deck?  🤔

 

Order place and on it's way.

On their way!

Do you have any plans to make Chucks cannon diorama kit. I think it was for the Speedwell.

I’m not sure what Chuck’s plans are for that. He hasn’t mentioned anything to me.

Capstan 'Out of Stock'!

 

Looks like a hit!

Going to make some more tomorrow. As many as I can. Try and make another Portland kit as well.

Any plans to offer Portland kits in cherry, as you've mentioned in your build log?

I may do a few of them. It seems pear is the way to go. The price won’t be much different, it’s the same amount of labor processing the wood. Do you prefer cherry to pear?

My capstan kit was waiting in my mailbox today.  Had not expected 2nd day delivery from across the country when I ordered.

 

Arrived without issue and in good condition thanks!

Good to hear! That was fast.
 

Looking forward to your build log!

Can you make a few without the resin parts for those of us with printers?

I will see if I can squeeze out a couple of them.

Hey guys,

 

Im going to be winding down at the shop today as I have to get back to work on Friday (I still have to maintain a real job), so not much production for 6 weeks. As of today I’ll have another Portland kit up (they take about 1.5-2 days to produce), I’m also going to try and crank out some Winnie chapters as well as a couple capstans if possible. I’ll be available while away and I’ll keep the store open but I won’t be making anything until I return in early march.

JJ
