The Pirate Ship and Where are they now?.....

Fire and Parts

July 20th - via: kickstarter.com
Busy Weekend. We tested the Fire on Saturday and again on Sunday.  This is one of 8 nozzles that will go on the ship.  The nozzle was an experiment to get more of a sheet of fire and not so much a huge ball of fire.  I think it worked out well,... (Read More)

New Engine

Thank you everyone.  The new Engine showed up today.  27 little horse power, but enough to move a ship.  Jules, Sparks and Andy L were over for the un-crating. We also made a small scale model of the mechanization that will raise and lower the... (Read More)
