discussion Brian's Sovereign of the seas

[Bri62]

Just pottering while I wait for the pins I ordered

 

[Neil Merryweather]

I can't believe you didn't need a break, although I appreciate that the tasks at this stage are in stark contrast to the fiddly rigging.

 

[Bri62]

I can't believe you didn't need a break

I need something to do to fill my day Neil since I stopped fishing and gardening due to my back.

 

[Jim R]

Looking good. Just a thought "Do you have to steam/wet the planks to get them to confirm to the curvature?"

 

[Bri62]

"Do you have to steam/wet the planks to get them to confirm to the curvature?"

Yes Jim depending on the curvature I need. Some need to curve and twist

 

[Nicko]

Another masterpiece on the way. Would you say you'd found your niche now Brian?

Nick

 

[Bri62]

Would you say you'd found your niche now Brian?

I reckon so yes Nick can't see me ever going back to plastic models.

 

[Bri62]

Should get my supplies tomorrow so I'll be able to progress more.

 

[Neil Merryweather]

That's a very extravagant way of displaying your model, Brian...

That's my comfy chair for when my back has had enough

The Sovereign has a throne

Morning chaps received my pins this morning and did an hour, it looks a mess at the moment I know but I'll fix it after all it's only the first planking.

Doesn't look messy from here Brian, nice clean work
