    I have a new project the Smit Nederland Billings kit # 528 which I'm sure there's a few of them around . I did not start the build a friend started the model & hasn't the time to carry on with it so I volunteered to finish her up .He's doing me a favor due to the world problems that I'm not going to get into . Most of the model has been completed with running gear , rudder servo & electronics . But I like to do all the final details so I'm happy to continue on with the model & hope to have the Smit Nederland in the water with my friend before summer ends so hope all is well & stay safe better time's ahead .๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€.

    Well done with the volunteering to finish the Smit. Should keep you busy for at least a week as you build very fast.

    Just a photo of running gear not complicated and that's the way I like it . If any problems it's easy to find the problem I hope .

    Sorry Garth.
    Great job.
    Ed told me he was going to do handrails on his Smit this weekend. Teaches me to read posts properly.

    Today was put the tires on hull day while I wait for a email from Canadian Tire for a Black & Decker Bump feed spool to chop the yellow Dandelion heads . Tire mounting took about 2 hours & my bump feed spool is in good think I had something to do for 2 hours . After Dandelion massacre will finish tires.
