Thank you all, very much. I´ve been working on my sails but, all for the bad, have no camera to take them pictures. My cellphone is broken, my camera missing, my tablet died and for now, all I can do is give some words about how it is going.

 

I´ve refused the kit´s sailcloth. Was thinking to use something more robust regarding the fabric, but changed my mind. Now I´m sewing some cloth from a new year´s unused dress. Can´t say, yet, if I´ll keep that, but, for the time being, seems pretty good.

 

Hope to have a new cellphone soon, with a nice camera, so I can show you the results. 

 

Bye ^^

Wow Vivian.....

 

No cellphone, no camera, no tablet .....

But lucky for you.....you've got us !!!!! :D  :D  :D

We will wait patiently for the pictures !

Aside my luck with electronics, all is fine! This week I´ll move my workbench from a room to another so my dogs stop breaking things (they´ve already put down my builds two times - the Caravel will need some repairs). Health is good, finally - but I´m unemployed right now (working on some side projects though), which means I have some spare time to build ships. Always love the receptiveness you show. Ty for all your care.

Hey all u guys and gals. As I´ve disapeared and proly u thought I had give up, here I´m to prove I´m alive and kicking!

 

Bout my junk - there are no updates. I´m looking for the right sailcloth for her sails, and still got nothing. As I moved again and again and again in the last two years, had little time to search for it or even get back to the shipyard. I´m gettint to it now, though, to start a new project and retake this one in particular - since it´s on the rigging already and I do need to finish this one (and all the others too).

Hey Viv!!! So nice to see you here again! You've been missed, dear.

Welcome back!

 

Abrazos

Hey Vivian,  what about if I send you some right sail cloth and you make one of your nice hot jalapeno dishes in return?

(although sending cloth to Brasil is easy, but sending food to the Netherlands is very difficult).

 

Please post your updates - we're eager to see!
