Hi 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 Grant , good to hear that you have encouraging improvements, recovering without surgery sounds better to me, i hope that you will recover soon my friend

it 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.

I'll see you all next time.

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.

Hi Rob,
this is a great kit to build Rob, i you can find the time to build it, i can recommend it, you can make a beautifull crossection of this kit.

I think the "Friesland" and the crossection of the Pinas would be a great combination in your display case
