DenPink Posted September 28, 2015 Author #274 Posted September 28, 2015 Hi All Sorry I am back ha-ha. Just dry fitted the next deck up from the quarterdeck . Put the mizzen mast in to locate the position of the deck as you do with all the decks. As this deck over hangs by about 23mm going on the plans number 8 I had to cut this amount off. Next is to glue the deck on.

DenPink Posted October 9, 2015 Author #282 Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Hi All Just painted the window that supports the Poop deck. Before I painted it I had to move the planking out as they sloped to far inwards but all is Ok now. Now will do the liquid glass on the back. Denis.

DenPink Posted October 9, 2015 Author #284 Posted October 9, 2015 Hi Visi Don't worry my dog "nosher" (nickname) but his real name is Mr T.

DenPink Posted October 20, 2015 Author #290 Posted October 20, 2015 Hi All Just a photo or two. I still have work to do on the stern and bow hull planking. Also deck furniture to put on. I have put some temporary masts in to see how they look, happy with them so far.

Visi Posted October 21, 2015 #291 Posted October 21, 2015 Denis The Hull Planking - very nicely done. I like the way you sectioned the planks and worked them as groups. Looking from the bottom up gives it an "easy on the eye" feel. A gentle gradient. Cant wait for how good the second planking will be. Thanks for Sharing. visi. DenPink, mtaylor and cristikc 3 Quote
DenPink Posted November 28, 2015 Author #292 Posted November 28, 2015 Hi all Sorry I have not posted for some time but I have been working on the second planking. I have got to say it is taking a very long time and only 1/3rd done. I thought I would give part of it a bit of a sand to see what it will look like.
