Ad in current issue of Woodcarving magazine lists Dockyard Tools USA , handcrafted in Yuba Michigan . Set of 10 on sale for $150 -
I use the Microscale products for my decals. The FLAT solution hides it for me. Use the SET first, let it dry overnight, then apply the FLAT. The other solution is Testor's Dullcote spray. Nice job on the paint scheme and tracks. Looks good.

Welcome Robert. nice job on your Constellation Well, I finally got all the lower gun ports cut out and lined. Don't think I messed it up too badly. Did have to do some sanding of the upper sills in order to get the cannons to protrude through the gun ports. Now I have to layout and cut out the upper gun ports. And the instructions call for the installation of the "clear" (manila colored) and dark (walnut colored) 0.5 mm thick second planking - more like a veneer than planks but it does improve the overall appearance.

You guys are all lucky. Admiral and I are both eligible but still can't find an appointment even at the Walgreens 1/4 mile from us. 😟

You can also find basswood blocks at any store that carries wood carving supplies. It is used in woodcarving. Look for a Woodcraft outlet.

Me too, Craig ! -
The Paradise California Camp Fire occurred November 8, 2018 and was not contained until November 25, 2018. I spoke with Bob right after this fire occurred and he told me his son lived in this area and lost everything in the fire, as Bob Cleek pointed out in his post above, including all copies of the source code for their website. His son has to start from scratch. Please cut them some slack.

My condolences to you and Judy, Michael. Pets are family too. We lost our 14 year old Corgi a year ago and still feel the loss.

Very decorative and complex. Looks old ! Is it ? -
Edward, Got an email this morning from a fellow iceboater that we have good river ice about 20 miles north of me. Looks like some nice sailing this weekend. 😃 Currently 11 F this morning .
-
Your boat looks good, Edward. Rope rail looks good too. Those temperatures are about what we are experiencing here this week; although they report that an area in Montana near Glacier National Park record z morning temp of -36 F earlier this week - they believe it was the lowest in the lower 48 since 1994. Overnight tonight we are expecting the Arctic blast to hit us windchills down to -10 F. Forecasting snow for Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday next . Time to break out the Barbie

Snow pack measures 9 inches, 23 centimeters, in my yard and that is compressed from sun.
-
Nope ! Overnight low at my place was 13 F (-10.5 C), at this posting it is now 17 F (-8 C) and we have 3 inches of fresh snow from yesterday. Boat looks good. Rope looks fine to me. Stanchions also. Stay warm !

6 inches of white stuff will paralyze Manhattan and the Boroughs 😀
