    A little progress made on the harbour rug over the weekend, mainly sizing up of the motor and bit of hull work Iโ€™m aware the prop is far too long just for angle reference๐Ÿ˜ I did however carry on after these pictures will post more pics later on today. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    Okay so over the couple of days I have done a bit of work on the us army tug, hull shaping ect, I think itโ€™s turned out pretty well for a novice. The cable ties really helped with keeping the shape while the glue dried with the help of a few pins. Bit more filling/sanding to do and a few finer details then look at sealing it all up ready to finally get started on superstructure and detail/paint. Canโ€™t wait to get this one on the water, itโ€™s going to be a gift for my 2 young children who enjoy watching me build. Still plenty to do yet but definitely making steady progress.

    Regards

    Superstructure nearing completion ๐Ÿ˜ spent most of the day on this build after waking up to snow on the ground I thought it was the perfect recipe for a quite day at the bench! I hope your all enjoying the progress pics, thanks for looking.

    Few small details added this evening. So slight work needed on the hull before sealing too.

    Been a little slow on the updates recently, finished off a few small details and sealing ect, applied some colour over the last 2 days, she is by no means perfect as reflected in the overall finish but hopefully with a couple more bits to do she will be ready for first float test and ballasting ect.
