Thanks Martin,
But in reality Eastwind was a three year build. It just looks like I managed to complete her so quickly because I live in a different time zone.ππ π Like

Well THANK YOU. You have inspired me to keep building my model of the USS Cunningham, DD752, which I served on 1961 thru 1964. πππ

Hi Martin,
The crane booms are scratch. Stryrene angle and various bits and pieces.They started out pretty symetrical, but as time went on...The tapered tower that holds the pulleys was turned from a piece of Renshape (expand PVC foam) and then a mold was made and two towers cast. The winch drum is turned PVC. π Like

Hi ToraDog,
Nice work. Did you make the crane boom's or are they part of a kit ? Martin555. π Like

Hi ToraDog,
I find that if you put the photos on first then add the text it works ok. The only other thing to do is copy and past the text. Your model is coming along nicely. Keep up the good work. Martin555. π Like

I can well appreciate the amount of work involved in a project like this as i am still wading through my HMS Cottesmore a bit at a time.
Your deck fittings are coming out well. You have a long way to go so keep up the good work. Martin555. π Like
