I appreciate your post with Imbir, Olha, as I also have a supervisory cat. Here she is helping me read the newspaper. She is 17 now, and currently at the hospital with a very serious illness. I hope to bring her home today. I have enjoyed watching many of your videos, especially the ones on the Capt. Smith shallop. Mine is nearing completion and I am working on the case, also using your techniques.
I wish your supervisor a speedy recovery. My supervisors are very skilled mousers… haven’t seen one in all of the six years that they’ve lived with us.
Here's my assistant, done for the day, Mabel.
Interesting problem with the oar ports, that was not an issue with version #1. When I built version #1 I had the same problem with the planking as you are having with version #2. I thought I had made a mistake in my building process, sad to see this problem has not been resolved as it seems to be a very nice kit otherwise.
I like the idea of using the dividing head as a swivel vice, easier than adjusting the machine vice.
I needed to change the angle all the time, so using a vise is not an option)))I like the idea of using the dividing head as a swivel vice, easier than adjusting the machine vice.
On the prototype, they look in different directions)))
But I know that an absolutely new version of this kit is being prepared! Where theoretically all these errors should be taken into account!!!

Ditto. I received the Viking Oseberg kit recently. I am totally new to wooden model ship building and hope to be guided through the process here.
The problem with this method - yes it is the easist way of immitating treenails - is the fact, that often around the nail will stay some small shaddow of this paste - I guess paste soaked into the wood grain
removing of the surplus material only possible with sanding or with a fibreglass erasier
We can see these small shaddows also on your model - if you know it you recognize it
I want only to make this comment, that everybody is aware about it

It's oil! When you cover the entire hull with oil, all these shadows will disappear!
