Gary, Thanks for that tip. I have already tried it and it looks and works great! I am going to do it that way on my Mt Washington! So much easier for my sore little fingers. Heat shrink...who would have thought.....

How about heat shrink, it works out well for me, and a damn sight less fiddly than binding wire, plus when correctly measured they look identical. Regards, Gary.

Definitely, a bit of artistic flair coming through there on those paddle box covers, and at the end of the day, it's the fine detail that makes all the difference. Well done you, great job. Gary.

Hi Dave,
Beautiful job on the Wheel Boxes. Did you cut out the clear areas or just paint around them? As far as seizing lines I found that fine copper wire worked the best as it stays put once bent. Trev ๐ Like

So right. As builders it seems we are hard on ourselves. Not everyone will see the misssteps of the build. For me it's the fact that I built the boat to the best of my abillities. Give yourself a pat on the back keep building and showing.

They do look great๐
Really makes a difference! Thanks for the Tip. You are right, when building we tend to focus on minutia, when looked on as a whole it all comes together Trev ๐ Like
