Good morning. Firstly thanks to Allan (@AllanKP69 ) for his help.
Back to the Bounty. Whew the past 2 months have been hectic. Been working on attempting to buy a business into our group which failed at the end. It felt like spending many hours building a major part for a ship only to throw it into the redo pile…
Anyway I have some ship building time again
.
Yesterday I continued with Mizzen mast- fitting the top, mast bands etc :
WIP :
Some poly- the 3 masts at present :
OH I also finally made the missing chain plate . I used a dremel and needle files to shape this from left over brass from the Victory. Not perfect but good enough.
Cheers Grant
PS total spend $7.00.

Had you not drawn an arrow to it, I would not have picked out the one you made. Nicely done.
My condolences for the $7…
Wow, all that progress at only $7.00. If you factored in your time at a decent $ rate and adjusted for inflation what would the $ be?
Thank you Kindly gentlemen.

.Hi Jim….buy the Enterprise kit.Wow! Now, what are you planning to do with all those savings?
