mtdoramike got a reaction from EricWilliamMarshall in For sale HMS Diana
Alright Andrew, way to go brother. Hopefully you will get the honor of bringing the Diana to all of her glory and on the plus side, David can visit the Diana when you get her finished since you both live relatively close. The HMS Victory that I built about 5 years ago and donated to my local Library, was more for me than the library because I get to visit the Vic when ever I want without having to find a place to display it. I visit the Vic quite often with the excuse of making sure there is no lines or glue that came loose that I will need to fix.

That would be very generous of you David. I'm sure someone would be happy to accept it and hopefully finish it. She is a fantastic model and deserves to be finished for others to enjoy. I hope your recovery goes well and hopefully someone near you will step up.

mtdoramike reacted to AJohnson in For sale HMS Diana
Hi David,
Diana, was always on my "wish list", but was always considering it a "retirement" project, but your wise words are a reminder we can't take the future for granted, so I am very much interested, a very generous offer.
I will PM you, I live only an hour or so down the A1 from you.
Wishing you all the very best for the future following your operation.
Kind regards,

I agree Keith, it's like two steps behind me and catching up fast.

I was able to remove the deck from midship to bow, which allowed access to the hull interior for sealing. It's hardly noticeable once the deck is replaced. But I intend to plank the deck anyway so no harm done.

One of the first things I will have to do on the Nordkap is surgically remove the decking from midship to the stem post in order to seal the interior of the hull, which the previous builder didn't do. He may have been shooting for a static display versus R/C operation, but I'm going full R/C.

A Billings Nordkap R/C finishing boat. A ladies husband recently passed away while working on this kit. I was asked if I would accept it and finish it, which I humbly agreed to do. I was not only humbled, but honored that I would be asked to do so. I will strive to make his vision for this model a reality and make her all se can be.
I have several projects going, but couldn't say no, nor did I want to.

I checked every where and the only place that had the Nordkap fittings package was Cornwall models in England. I was able to get the only fitting kit they had although having to bite the bullit for $192.00 minus the currency conversion rate. But it is what it is. Billings has some on order, but with the supply chain going the way it is, they have no idea when they will get them.
