Half Moon (Corel) (SM18) 1:50 Scale [COMPLETED BUILD]
A ships boat and grates. Made small handles and tied to the capstan.
Pretty much finished with the deck area.
Smooth. Nice joints!
Good morning. Very neat. The capstan levers displayed like this is effective- clever. Cheers Grant
Drilled small holes in the channels to hold in place on the ship.
Tapered all the masts and spars. Cut the area where the trestle trees sit. These cuts should have been square. I made them round. Will get it right next time.
Cut and assembled the crow's nests from Holly wood. Like other builders, I didn't use the kit's supplied crow's nests.
Solid pieces are the kit supplied pieces.
Solid pieces are the kit supplied pieces.
Next step is to rig the masts and spars then assemble them.
Thank you. Yes they did Heinrich. But I enjoyed making them.

Oops. Just noticed I put the channels in the wrong places. The short one is suppose to be at the stearn. And the middle sized one at the bow. It sure is a lot more fun when you don't make so many mistakes. 
Corrected the channels.
Good morning. Just played a little catch up on your build. Stunning work. Those crows nest are beautiful. I want a dowel center finder…I never get that spot on. Awesome work. Cheers Grant
Thanks Grant. I make so darn many mistakes I usually get to make things more that once!!
The masts are finished.
Putting foot ropes on the spars.
Masts and spars are pretty much finished.
I'm thinking about putting furled sails on this model.
