Hi Jacko,
That's a most generous offer which I gladly accept 👍😊 Can you scan the A4 pages into a single continuous pdf file? If not, don't worry. I can work with a set of jpg files as well - just takes a little longer to import into my CAD programme 🤔 Will PM you post haste (or should that nowadays be Email haste!?😐) Cheers, Doug 😎 ▲

Mornin' Nerys,
Yep, that's been irritating me for months that the Digital Issues do not include the free plans 😠 So I'm gonna change that at the upcoming renewal. Originally I had a both print and digital subscription. But summat went south when the mag changed the company handling their subscriptions and suddenly there was only a choice of one or the other! And I still haven't seen the Winter Special yet, which apparently contained the Push Tug article and plan. Ho hum🤔 Doug 😎 ▲

Doug, perhaps as it is the digital edition of the magazine that you receive, the plan may not be included, but I would have thought the 'how to' article would have been.

Thanks Marky👍
I have a digital subscription and have received the December issue but not the Special 🤔 Cheers, Doug 😎 BTW: In the December issue there's an excellent article about a smoke generator, and 'puffing' mechanism, for simulating gun fire from the main battery of the battleship HMS Iron Duke. An impressive 48" model. Worth a read👍 ▲

Thanks Jacko, but I'm just a dumb engineer so I've archived my mags (also the digital versions) by year!
Can you tell me what year/month that issue appeared please? Ta muchy, Doug 😎 ▲

Might make a good rescue boat for our Wee Nips. With the drought over here, they are often getting bogged.

Hi Jacko,
That is a super little pusher Tug. I can already see it rescuing a model boat that is in destress. I like the use of the notice board pins for bollards. Martin555. ▲

This project is one for all I need to make one myself to rescue my Crash Tender when it eventually sails.
Ps I found your picture background quit amusing, a challenge in its self, I first thought it hundreds of parts but then realised it was the floor. ▲

The lighters are coming on well, be interesting to see both tug and lighters afloat. I take it you will have her pushing two lighters alongside each other.
