Ray S Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 That is very good progress Bertie, it has been great dropping back in and catching up the last three pages or so. The patination experiment looks to have been a success - does it seem to be resilient to touch? All the best, and see you in the Salty Sea Dog GB - not long 'til it starts now.

Ray Tbh Ray, now it's on the stand, I am avoiding touching the copper. I don't know how durable the colours are now. Immediately after the egg experience, they resided a rub with a finger so I am reasonably confident. I today managed to set one deadeye, drunkenly leaning over, crumpled up and twisted. The deadeye itself was no better, so I desisted. 160.30 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie McBoatface Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 The Salty Sea Dog GB starts in a couple of days so I've laid up Beagle/Bagel for a while. I don't think it's wise to have two wooden boats on the slips at the same time. I'll try to return, this isn't a shelving of doom but an embarrassment of riches situation. I don't know how long I'll be away 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertie McBoatface Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 Right. I'm taking a break from Britmodeller. (I've set out my reasons in the 'about me' part of my profile.) I hope to be back in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
