  1. 😂 I didn't notice the plank shift until you mentioned it, but I'm sure you're right about the additional frames below deck 😂

  4. I think you could do it. I'd say my skills are average and I am building the Conny. Its on standby right now but take a look at my build log below.

  6. Deagostini (model space) has a Surprise kit but I can't speak of the quality since I don't have the kit myself.
  7. Welcome to MSW Mark. You're not too far from my place of birth, Ellwood City, PA.
  8. Just a quick update. I finished fairing the hull and I'm currently working on tick strips to mark the lines for planking, I had one oops while fairing which was I took a little too much off at the lower part of the transom. Not paying attention 😒. I'll probably need to use a little filler after the planking is done. I'm currently making some tick strips to mark off the hull. This is my tick strip maker.

  12. Interesting method for building the hull. It looks very sturdy though.

  14. I got the small pieces of planking glued to the frames and finally glued the transom on. The picture shows how I did that. The pieces of wood were used to prop the transom up after it was glued. Once the glue was applied I used a ruler to align it with the rear most frame and to makes sure it was level. On to fairing.
