Brian's Caldercraft 1/72 HMS Victory
Thanks guys, struggling a bit to be frank caught the front to supports on the bow and they snapped off (there very delicate) managed to glue them back but don't seem to have gone back the way they were. Anyway some pics of the progress so far.- Bri62

John I would need to buy a new drill as my current drill chuck only takes up to 10mm dia and the dowel is 13mm. I think I have solved the issue I returned the sander and bought another lathe which takes up to 400mm point to point.- Bri62

While waiting for my sander I thought I would do a bit of rigging some cannons :) my new sander should make tapering the masts a whole lot easier. my new knife (loving it)- Bri62

The reason I'm doing the bow sprite now is the gammoning saddles and gammoning lashings are going to be very awkward to do when all the bow is built up so going to get that out the way :)- Bri62

The bow sprite is proving tricky to say the least there is a lot of angles to consider and precise cuts lets hope I don't cock it up :) The end cap for the other mast are all pre cut, why this one wasn't I don't know :(- Bri62
