The Flexcut palm gravers are really nice
We are all the same when it comes to
For some reason, they called us crazy, not sure why. 
lol tomorrow I’ll clean the shop and post some pictures of the inventory. I have approx 70 drawers and 5 Kennedy toolboxes full of tools. I did RC Aircraft for 30 years bought and sold a lot of gear but never sold a single tool.
Today did a few more carvings after spending 4 hours cleaning up the shop
Today picked up more carving tools, and then jumped right to it and started carving a figure head

wow - looking very good
Thanks Uwe I love your GRANADO I think my next kit will be a POF
Got back at it again and and did some carving for the stern, and by the way if anyone lives in Ontario Canada I found a gem of a store in Waterloo called chipping away and they sell all the tools for this hobby. Picked up 2 Proxxon saws and more carving tools

Nice Lion!
Finished the Stern Carvings and placed them on and did some changes to the figurehead up front for a better fit
Very good results
changed things up a bit , I was not super happy with the stern carvings, so I carved up some new gals for the port and Starboard
Good morning. I love what you are doing with this Xebec. Another modeller creating their own version of this kit. Your colour choice is so good. Cheers Grant
Thank you Grant. I took my inspiration from you and Peter, both of your Xebec’s were amazing work. I am hounered to be in this group.

You are doing a very good job on your Xebec. It is always great to see different iterations of the same model and yours how many individual characteristics with the scratch-made carvings, a particularly nice touch. Well done!
Thank you Heinrich I hope my rigging will turn out good as I do not have much experience in rigging, I have not built a ship in 35 years
Worked on the figure head this morning
