    Very Nice your fittings. You must be used to work with brass and copper. Or are you a pro?

    I got tears in my eyes when i saw your video. 3 Years ago i was on a business trip IN Australia.
    namely Brisbane and Melbourne. Although it was business i have never met such friendly people. I enjoyed every minute, weather, food the only problem was the price of my cigars!!!
    Australian politicians don't like people smoking. Even outside the hotel you have to be miles away from the entrance.
    I enjoyed every single minute of your video. How can you get so much people for an event?!?!
    When we organise an event in Belgium we have to beg people, go on our knees to have some models at the exhibition. I do have the feeling that there is much more intrest in Australia and the U.K. for these events. Apologise when i m wrong 😊
    Im looking forward to the 2024 video.
    well done congratulations

    Another possible supplier for starters is the German agent for peba kits manufactured in China( where else) and Graupner let their models manufactured here
    They got different scales 1/20 -1/32-1/50-1/200
    They are an on line shop

    When I started modelboatbuilding I have made a number of boats if the German company called Graupner unfortunately they went bust.The advantage of their kits was that their plans were extremely good,detailed and comprehensive for a starter. They other manufacturer I could recommend is Krick. The easyest thing is starting with a hull in pvc or polyester
    Hope this β€œadvice” is usefull
