I restarted this build last August after receiving the 100mm Schottels from OceanWorks in Hong Kong.
She's been sat waiting for spray painting weather and finally this has arrived so tomorrow everything else will be on hold while I mask up repeatedly for paintwork.
There’s approaching 2,000 pictures in the gallery link.
A few pictures for now.
One of my finest achievements is the 36 windows hand made in 2mm plexiglass
Each one is finely shaped so they are dry fitted without glue.

Too windy really but I got it on.
Masking the washports was very tedious

A bath of water doesn't figure in the bigger picture of 10 months work and well over a grand in materials and parts 😎
The UK has just experienced the wettest May on record so the plants are fed up 😂 ▲

What is the length of the tub? 4’ save the water my wife will say. She would use it to water plants in the garden, though you’ve probably pulled the plug by now, eh.
