Sweet! Heating and cooling too? Central music, coffee maker, small refrigerator (with beer). Wow!

Jeeze, how bad was the damage?

How has the fit been so far?

Watching with interest. I've built modern plastic warships / carriers and wood boats and ships, but never a plastic sailing ship. Will be watching your progress. I might just try one of those. Great job. The research is sometimes as interesting as the build. Do you have a book or something for...

Nice build. We flew A4-D-2's off ESSEX in the 60's for ASW defense. They were the first jets to function as part of an ASW killer force in 1961, giving us the unusual status as the only CVAS in either fleet. One group was a Marine Squadron that was formed in 1963 for the sole purpose of...

Sweet. Are the tail fin stripes painted or decals.

Very nice detail work. What did you use for antenna wire?

I love watching you build. The variety and number of kits is amazing. I'll be watching for 2021. See you on the other side. EJ

Great to see somebody's getting something done. For some reason I've had a real building slump for about 3 months. The model club has been unable to meet because of covid restrictions. I always get a little boost after the meetings. We usually meet for a mid week business meeting + show & tell...

Nice looking armour. The ship is coming along nicely. The deck markings are really spot on. I struggle with PE railings, but they sure do look nice. What kind of glue do you use for the PE and PE railings? EJ
