    I have finally finished the Krick Dusseldorf. I am very happy with the results. I have done a few modifications along the way and added a few colours. There are 16 working functions including three lighting circuits, anchor, radar, monitors and a crane. I have really enjoyed making this one even though it has taken four years.
    Peter.

    The pump works but I have not yet connected the pipe work. As soon as the wind drops here,I will connect and try everything on the river.๐Ÿ˜Š

    Wow, this looks super. I love the way you have identified parts and cables internally. Do the water canon work ?๐Ÿ˜‰

    Looks like the model was well worth the amount of time that you have spent on it.
    I hope you enjoy sailing with this first class model.

    Mightily impressive, detailed but clean lines, superb electrical gubbins.
    As a noob I am overwhelmed but inspired.

    Thanks guys. Yes, you are right. I am really disappointed that Martin cannot see the result. It was only a couple of weeks ago that he told me to finish the next model more quickly so that he could see it. Who would ever have guessed that he would miss this one. I was two days late.๐Ÿ˜Œ
    The pictures are taken there because of good light JB. Honest. Almost.๐Ÿคช๐Ÿคช

    Well done Peter, it looks fantastic. I understand you built it without reading the instructions which makes it even more remarkable ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

    Looking forward to seeing some video with all the functions working.

    Superb model Peter,- love the home 'pond' in the background (not showing off at all๐Ÿ˜) I think you are going to need a 'pre-flight' check list to remind you of what everything does and what makes it do it, before it goes in the water๐Ÿ˜ It's a shame Martin won't get to see it all working.
