I know that I'll make a bunch of mistakes on this one as it comes down the line, don't worry. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted November 7, 2021 Author Share Posted November 7, 2021 Progress has been slow, but has been happening on the Camel. Weathering is pretty much done, assembly has begun, and the finish line is somewhere in sight. Not 100% satisfied with it, but I'm not sure that any of us are ever truly satisfied with our work. Still need to thread the last two cabane struts in, then get ready for all of the rigging.

MDuv Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Wow ! I don’t see anything you can be unsatisfied with! Not a single little flaw! Guess we are our worst critiques. Splendid work.

Bobs Buckles Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Matt, I think you're being a little hard on yourself. The Camel looks excellent to my eye. Keep up the great work. Bob scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scvrobeson Posted December 19, 2021 Author Share Posted December 19, 2021 The Camel quickly approaches the finish line. The rigging has been finished, the last little bits are being painted, finished, and attached. All that still needs to be done is a couple of small repairs, then the mounting of the wheels and bombs before it goes into the case. Rigging was done with Prym flat thread, and Gaspatch turnbuckles of a few different types. Let me know what you all think. Happy holidays to everyone here and their loved ones. Hoping for peace and happiness in the holiday season. Matt geedubelyer, MikeMaben, GMK and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
