No no I already ordered, the guns and oars and unfortunately they do not fit as Seahorse is real 1:72 scale, thats how I found out my kit is more 1:64. But I might use the oars

Eh... cool technology... I'd love to buy one like that, I need to get one closer to making the masts. And about the Z-axis, you got it right.And round it off on the lathe.

Mast and spars are done. Cleats by DryDock. Not 100% happy with the result. Especially not with the cherry wood (I don't like it compared to pear it is rough). Anyway, pictures
I will do the deadeyes and other metals tuff for the rig next, but won't rigg her soon. Polotsk Rigging first or another smaller kit
cheers

Thank you Peter, John, Karlheinz and GRant. very much appreciate. At the moment a bit frustrated about the flaws of the kit ... I realise then that I’m not working quite as carefully as I could be, which annoys me
Und das macht deine Arbeitsweise aus Dirk. Du holst immer das Beste heraus. Die ( Modell )-Ergebnisse sprechen für sich.Vielen Dank Peter, John, Karlheinz und GRant. Ich weiß das sehr zu schätzen. Im Moment bin ich etwas frustriert über die Mängel des Bausatzes ... Mir wird dann klar, dass ich nicht ganz so sorgfältig arbeite, wie ich könnte, was mich ärgert.
