    Using plans I drew using photographs and origional constructors drawings I've created a 1:32 scale kit of the Alwyn Vintcent, the last operational steam tug in South Africa (see attached pdf). I'm now building the kit to ensure fits of all the structural components.

    Hi Alan,

    Sorry my mistake I didn't scroll down on the pdf's.

    Are you going to do some 3D printed crew?

    Cheers,
    Stephen.

    G'day,
    Very nice looking model tug.
    What are the specs, length, weight?

    Cheers,
    Stephen.

    Don't forget the steam engine, to give it that degree of realism. After all, it is and was a steam-powered tug boat.

    Nice work it will be good to see it in action. Always a joy to see ones work from drawing to accomplished build floating well across the waves.
