Hello
After the construction is before the construction!!!
The construction trailer is tidied up and I am full of energy.
After I have completed the RAU IX (driving pictures and videos to follow) I will now start with the Britannia from
"Mountfleet Models".
Here are the first pictures and a link

Hello! I've made some progress again. I repaired the window frame, glued on the bulwark, made the foremast, and put everything in its place.

I know exactly what you mean Wolle! Apart from going to the club once I've done nothing on my boats for weeks. I did get the soldering iron out today for extending some battery cables but then found I'd run out of the connector I wanted so had to order some.
Hello!
I've finally found some time again.
I've finished building the bridge...lamp, roof, roof antennas, door.
I've glued on the anchor winch and positioned the skylights.

Small update
I had a bit of bad luck. I wanted to continue working on the wheelhouse, and then the window frame fell off.
I was so annoyed. But oh well. I'll pick myself up and keep going.
We'll sort this out too. Or won't we?
Went I get hit with a setback, I keep it I try and keep it light and refer to the S. Hunter Thompson quote:
"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."
Such is my nature.
