Welcome aboard lobo! You’ve joined a great place. Definitely agree that it’s a different feel to plank on frame, I’ve only done 4 sibs so far, but recently started a plank on frame model and not enjoying it half as much, that and I can’t find a bottle big enough!😂

That’s a really good looking ship, can’t wait to see it bottled!👍👍

Welcome aboard mick!👍

Fantastic!😎

Nice work, Thats a great idea! I usually find homemade tools the best way to go, I think every tool I've bought has had to be modified in one way or another. 😁

Welcome aboard shipmate, you've arrived at a great place! 😁

Love it, looks really good! 😎

That's looking really great, I think the size looks really good aswell. 😁

Click on the three lines in the top right hand corner, then from the options click on clubs, the first post on this page will contain a link to the shipwrights journal pdf.

That looks so cool! 😎

Hi lubber, sounds like you'll be busy for a while! I have to confess I am not building my kit at the moment, due to lack of pictures of this ship, I will want to add some more detail. Secondly I've just also started a larger planked ship build, although I'm getting ichy fingers to build another ship in bottle as I much prefer small scale. 😁

Welcome aboard, its a great place!😃

That's looking really good, can't wait to see it bottled. 👍

I hope so, it will be the first ship I've built with collapsible masts, so should be fun to see how it turns out! 😀

Hi lubber, thanks for the information, your right about the putty it's rock hard! It's also missing the Hull of the ship, but it has a very good scale plan for it so I can easily make another, also the writing on the bottle is massive so might change it. 😀

Luckily I have a plan, so this will be my next build!😀

Just found this on a carboot sale, £3.00! Box sealed with very old dried out sticky tape, so I thought I won’t damage the box and try to open it, I will wait until I get home and gently cut the tape and open it. So I set off home, excited to see what looks like a great find from 1988, once home I carefully open the box to find everything but.....?..

What a great idea! That looks superb, 10 out of 10 from aswell! 👍

That is superb! 👍

That looks great! Nice job with the flag as well.😎

Welcome aboard shipmate! 😎

Glad the sites back up and running, that felt like someone had nicked my sweets! I'd be lost now without it! 😂 😂 Happy days are here again! 😀😀
