ArnoldAmbrose Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Gidday Kev, I'm very impressed with the food bags and trays, but a little disappointed that there are no sultanas or cherries. 😁 Seriously, they ARE very good. Regards, Jeff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socjo1 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) All project is fabulous, but this shed just blowed my hat off... These slats, factures, impression, passion for small details and flavors... Very imaginative and atmospheric, somewhat nostalgic. I don't know why, but it reminded me book I bought for my son after week of walking, rambling and wild bivacuing on Skye Isle: We still love this book. Your model as well 😉 !

stevehnz Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Wonderful stuff going on there Kev, a delight to the eyes. Your eye for detail is flipping amazing. Circular shackle, are they the same as a bow shackle? Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnWS Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Just catching up, Kev. Lovely detail work. The vendors at our local farmers' market would be envious of your fruit & vegetable selection. I'm with beefy, though. Too many greens. Wasn't rum good for preventing scurvy, as well? Where did you hide the kegs? John 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I believe these boats were also used by the local smugglers so maybe some wine barrels and a pile of silk material Would make a change from what they get down there these days 20 blokes and a load of mobile phones just saying Stay Safe beefy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not heard of the up north variant only the Kent, African and the Brazilian and I am sure you have to shave all over if you catch the last one. Stay at home and build your stash ( If only would be a nice thought only have to wait 2 years 4 month and 16 days for that but I am not really counting Honest. ) beefy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshanks Posted March 10, 2021 Author Share Posted March 10, 2021 I knew it wasn't going to be a good day for rigging when I couldn't get the toothpaste on the brush iinvoluntary hand tremor So it was down to rude & crude Foam base and quay. Boat protected by clingfilm All areas primed with PVA, don't forget the underside and edges Used some old tile grout stones and flagstones scribed whilst grout still damp Because the quay is set at an angle there is only a small section of wharehouse as indicated by the white sheet Trust you approve Stay safe Kev 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
