Hi Grant , good to hear that you have encouraging improvements, recovering without surgery sounds better to me, i hope that you will recover soon my friendHi Peter. I was supposed to go in, however some work obligations change that. In mean time I have been working with the physio and have a permeant brace. Managing ok and going to give this alternate approach a go to see if I can avoid the knife. Still hobbling around however have had some encouraging improvements. Thanks for asking. Cheers Grant
Hi Peterit has been almost 3 weeks since the last update, so it is about time to show something.
I stained the crossection first, and this was the result

I think that the sight of the treenails is quite good, and i like it.
After this, it was time to place the Maststep, the Beams and the Knees, i also placed the Carlings.
Except for the knees and the Maststep, everything is dry-fit, because i also want to place some iron bolts in the knees, the maststep, and the Keelson.
I don't know how i will do this, but i'll try something out on some spare wood, in the next updat i hope to show you some of it.

Hi Peter
I am absolutely loving your build which you are superbly executing, this is another kit I have been looking at for a while which would sit alongside my Mamoli "Friesland" Kit whenever I get round to building her.
Dank je wel ChristianIk wens je ook prettige kerstdagen, Peter
Good morning Peter. Great news to hear your Admiral is on the mend and on her feet again. You guys have an amazing Christmas. Cheers GrantIt has been a long time, but i am having a small update for you.
Because my admiral is back on her feet again, she is running a bit thru the house, and doing some household jobs again, so i can do some modelbuilding from time to time.
First of all the ladder to the hold of the ship, last time i forgot to take that picture, but here it is.

I saw some great hinges in some logs here on SOS, and on the Dutch forum, so i had to try that as well, the door of the galley got some hinges, they are a bit to large, but i can't get them any smaller than this.
The door is not ready yet, i will take it of again, to do some more work on it, as you can see on the pictures that is necessary but this is what i could make of the it for now

May i ask if you have celebrated Christmas as well?? i heard sometime ago that not everybody in Israel celebrates it like we do?
we also used to visit the "Holidays Festival" in the city of Haifa also to introduce to the children the customs of other religions as part of education for tolerance and respect for their holidays and beliefs.
